The Isekai genre continues to grow in both the anime community and the literary community. However, I have a few complaints that many of you share but for some reason are still used all the time. I do have some complaints though that very few people seem to talk about. Now, I don't want to sound like a hypocrite because I am currently writing an Isekai but I do my best to avoid all of the things that I will be complaining about.
Most Isekai always seems to stick to a strangely harem-like setup with around 2 to 5 love interests that have different personalities. Some of them joined the party out of admiration for the protagonist; others were forced into the party by way of slavery, debt, order from some authority, or they want to keep an eye on another character in the party. All the cookie-cutter tropes just get on my nerves. there's no depth to most of the characters and the select few shows that do have good character depth usually don't get a conclusion.
This is my other big problem with it. They only on occasions get conclusions. The story doesn't end properly because the writer either got bored, died, or was unable to continue publishing/making the show due to something outside their control. Though there are a few outliers with this, they were either really short or the writer was actually able to push through and get them out into the medium.
Anyways, what are your thoughts on this?
