@meeper A lot about isekai feels very lazy to me. Like you said, it's just too convenient that things in this different world are still fundamentally similar so that the protagonist has a pretty easy time to adapt. It's basically only a device to have a narrator who shares your knowledge and understanding of the world and inadvertently "translates" everything going on for the reader/watcher. Part of my motivation to try making an isekai comic myself is to see if I can make one that isn't lazy in this way, but it's certainly a challenge.
