Do you thank Zero no Tsukaima for creating modern Isekai?

LoL no? Modern Isekai is not just getting transferred to fantasy world (heck even MAR is older than tsukaima) it's about strong self insert MCs like mondaijitachi, but you could say SAO started it.

pour one out for the author

Excuse me, ZnT is nothing like modern isekai.

>SAO
>isekai
retard

Fpbp

Zero no Tsukaima is Fist of the North Star
SAO is DBZ.

Why braindead retards say SAO is isekai? is it some sort of shitposting meme like calling fantasy "reverse isekai"?

Because Japan is braindead enough to call it an Isekai themselves.

MAR doesn't really adhere to Narou-kei tropes that well. It's more of a battle shounen with Narnia and Digimon like elements if anything.

Zero no Tsukaima has the main character actively trying to go back to Japan, that is the opposite of modern isekai

I thank Zero no Tsukaima for introducing the concept so that Mondaichi could perfect it.

Insisting SAO isn’t an isekai is unbelievably retarded.

He isn't transported to another world, Kirito is just playing a videogame. Nobody ever called HACK a fucking isekai.

>Nobody ever called HACK a fucking isekai
the only reason nobody called .hack an isekai is because it wasn't popular to use as a genre term back then, especially in the west. log horizon is an isekai, .hack is an isekai, sao is most definitely an isekai.

Log horizon is an isekai, because they really got transported to other world.

Fucking newfags

RIP author...

Most depressing author death
>The 21st volume of Zero no Tsukaima novel will be delayed at least for two months. Please forgive me! Damn! I'll live on. I had been desperate, but I miraculously got an opportunity to take the operation. There is a possibility of survival. I really want to live...

he's trapped in a digital world. same premise as digimon, which is an isekai

A videogame, it's not really the same concept as "the digital world" which we know it's a real place that exist together with earth.

inside the videogame is a real place, it exists in the severs

He just got summoned to another world that's all. Eventually he will return and continue ZnT.
