I think this is a good answer to the question. Ima jump on that and give my own answer in the light of this thought. "Their justified because we can study and understand them", but we don't know how they came about or how they are enforced, or what they are. We just know they are enforced and...

The language is actually Eahengee-elaihessaitch. whether or not it sounds similar to swear words of a different language is purely unintentional.

I had a silly idea this morning, where I took my name and tried pronouning it letter by letter. So I wanted to try it with "Laccoff Mawning". So to explain how this works, laccoff mawning is spelled "L, A, C, C, O, F, F, ,M, A, W, N, I, N, G". which is "el, ay, sea, sea, oh, ef, ef, (space)...

As a comedy reader, I think "Basement dweller hit by the apocaypse" could be hillarious. I'll try and throw some critique about the current story thing here: Your synopsis doesn't depict slice-of-life at all. "Hoping to avoid the main story" is not equivalent to "Avoiding the main story". And...

I think the key is in the build up. The actual conflict scene itself can be pretty short, but the start of the conflict shouldn't happen until all the pieces of the puzzle have been put in place. What are those "puzzle pieces"? Sadly, I don't know. It depends on the story and scene, I guess...

This is literally the same as saying infinity plus one. It makes no actual sense.

It sounds like cards didn't originally exist in the story, but then "last boss" interferes due to the arrival of the MC, and now everyone uses cards. Doesn't that mean from the MC's perspective that a novel without cards has turned into a card-game isekai? To be honest, it sounds like you...

I remember once several years ago thinking about Isekai stories, and how the "heroes" of the stories didn't act heroic- they would do their own thing, get their own harem, execute their own justice, and flaunt their "modern day ethical superiority" over the enhabitants of the otherworld. So I...

This is very faulty logic. You imply that memories cause personality, so the loss of memories means you lose your personality. But then you don't argue the reverse that re-gaining your memories would re-gain your personality? Also: The "solution" you propose is not a solution; it's the problem...

I think you're (almost fully) right when you claim that Isekai is "rendered moot" with the amnesia trope. I say almost, because there are almost always exceptions. For example, maybe an Isekai'ed person who slowly regains his memories as time passes. Suppose a novel pulled this concept off...

Eheh. many times. I have many story ideas and some non-story ideas. But in one and a half years i've written about 30k words. Sometimes I reflect on several ideas I've had and I realise I don't actually want to write them; usually due to some plot hole or a more thematic issue with the story...
