Shout out to people who are fans and enjoyers of hated media. Stuff people make 8 hour video essays on why it’s bad, shows or games or whatever that people dunk on to the point where it’s basically a trend even if they never interacted with said media. Bands or movies where people who have only heard of it will make judgement after hearing someone talk about their interest.
Keep being you, keep liking what you like authentically. Don’t let the bandwagoning or angry nerds get to you. You are some of the most awesome and chilliest people on the internet.

Trapped in a Dating Sim
Tumblr media
Damn. Next time I teach writing I am DEFINITELY using this story as an example. The most important element a story can have is internal consistency. People will put up with just about anything as long as it's consistent. It's impressive -- and really OBVIOUS to see -- how the story maintains it's internal consistency even though it admits right at the start that the world is broken. It's also very funny.
Trapped in a Dating Sim, aka Mobuseka, begins with a man who's been blackmailed into completing a bad videogame for his little sister. The game is a dating sim that's been put out by a company that typically only makes fighting games. The company didn't know how to make a dating sim, made a bad one, and then tried to compensate by stuffing it full of what they do know how to do, which is both fantasy and Mecha fight scenes -- think a really bad Sakura Wars ripoff by someone who didn't know what they were doing.
Every gamer out there has run into a similar game, made by someone who didn't know what they're doing and stuffed full of what they were good at as a distraction. And every gamer has at least watched someone hate-play a game to completion.
Then, dazed by a weekend spent in front of the videoscreen, our guy falls down a flight of stairs, dies, and to his horror wakes up as a minor background character inside the game. At first our guy Leon is content to live out his days making snarky remarks in obscurity, but then he acts to protect himself and others, changing the game in the process. It also becomes clear that someone else is changing the game as well, with less concern for the consequences.
The world is still a badly-designed mishmash put together in a slapdash fashion by people who didn't know what they were doing. Instead of trying to distract you from that fact while hurriedly fixing things behind the scenes the story leans into it, and that's where it becomes interesting. Internal consistency is the glue that holds a story together, but in a well-designed world like Ascendance of a Bookworm it's hard to see that glue. But this isn't a perfectly designed custom world like Bookworm. This is a jalopy built out of mismatched parts. Internal consistency is obviously the only thing holding it together, so the viewer is able to see just how important that feature is in storytelling -- and especially for comedy.
The show points out the problems with all the genres it plays with. Dungeon design is stupid, and the characters in dating sims are often petty and cruel, acting like they're perpetually emotionally stuck at age 13. (Such people do exist. Dealing with them is just as horrific as it sounds.) One of my favorite parts of the show is how actions that are seen as praiseworthy inside the dating sim scenes are often viewed quite harshly by mature adults, who punish them accordingly. In the same light, Leon the main character can be seen as selfish and brusque, or as a grown man acting quite understandably when continually forced to put up with middle school bullies.
Comedy is a genre where most shows fail before the end of the first episode. Five episodes in, Mobuseka is still engaging and funny. Let's hope it keeps balancing all it's mismatched parts on the thread of internal consistency.

I'm reading this manga and the protagonist's love interests are also the yuri fanservice.

The way I see it, trash can absolutely be wholesome and super enjoyable still. Like Mobuseka or this apparently. I have to read this now hahahaha
Yeah and I agree, but what I meant is that particular story, i started reading it because I thought it would be fun trash, but it wasn't trash. It was just a fun story about things going right and a small farmstead slowly growing as more and more outcasts and weirdos join the family.
That was not what I signed up for, i just wanted mindless crap to offset all that sweet stuff i read before, i wanted the equivalent of written junk food. That was not a full meal, far from it, it was more akin to a tasty sandwich, quick and good as a snack between more important stuff. Now I need to find another manga, one that is actually trash. Did the Furuhashi spidermanga already came out?

Spring 2022 Anime Review
Alrighty! This season I actually ended up deciding to watch the majority of the shows that were airing so here’s my run down of the 20+ series for the 2022 Spring anime season! (I will likely never do this again because I 100% burnt out) Edit - That being said, the last week before the finales aired, I decided to use my time to watch some of the ONA's and holy - they honestly stole the show. Both series I watched were at least 9/10 and blew me away, so I'll be starting with those.
Tumblr media
Vampire in the Garden Spring 2022 ONA - 5 Episodes I've linked my main review in the title but here's a summary. This series was absolutely stunning. It was whimsical and upsetting and overall one of the best stories I've experienced in a while. 10/10 - Masterpiece
Tumblr media
Spriggan Spring 2022 ONA - 6 Episodes This was based off a movie in 1998. I went back and watched it and please don't bother... The concept is amazing but the new series takes that concept and expands on everything the movie was missing. It also covers the same story in episode 2 but makes it significantly better. Right from episode 1 you can feel the 90s aesthetic build into the world and I absolutely love it. The story is neat, the style is great and they have a super interesting combination of modern and classic styles of animation. 9.5/10 - Amazing
Tumblr media
Shikimori's Not Just a Cutie Spring 2022 - 12 Episodes   (Posting this before the finale since it's literally the last thing to air) I think a lot of people went into this series expecting a similar vibe to Dress Up Darling and I think that was the problem. This show was actually really wholesome. It starts off with a healthy relationship and amazing friend group. The focus ends up being more on the group as a whole and their interactions rather than just the couple and to be honest, this made the slice of life aspect a lot more believable. I loved watching the episodes and ended up growing really fond of the whole gang. 8/10 - Very Good
Tumblr media
Komi-San Can’t Communicate - Part 2 Spring 2022 - 12 Episodes I was pleasantly surprised by this part 2. This is actually just as good as the first part, if not better. I swear second parts pretty much always fall off, but man am I glad that this was consistent. I really liked Komi san, I don’t think it’s S-tier or anything but I think it’s still really enjoyable. I love the slow burn romance and I’m overall very satisfied with the rest of this season. 7.5/10 - Good + (Enjoyable)
Tumblr media
The Rising of The Shield Hero - Season 2 Spring 2022 - 13 Episodes This was a show that I was genuinely hyped for when I found out there was going to be a continuation. The first season felt complete and had everything you'd want out of a series, proper character development, story completion and an actual ending. I really felt disappointed by the first 6 episodes of this new season and man was it rough. It throws you right into a totally different narrative and somehow you're in the middle of a war by episode 3. It really wasn’t until episode 6 or 7 when it started to get back to what was relevant to the first season that it felt the show was even worth watching. Because of how drastically different the two halves of the season were I’m splitting this into 3 ratings. Part 1 - (Episodes 1-6) - 4/10 - Bad Part 2 - (Episodes 7-13) - 7/10 Good Overall - 6/10 Fine
Before getting into the rest of the season here's the links for the top series that are 100% worth checking out: Spy x Family Paripi Koumei Dance Dance Danseur Additionally, there’s a few that I’d like to add to this list but will be continuing to air into the Summer 2022 season so go check those out: Aoashi & Summer Time Render Now back to your scheduled programming:
Tumblr media
Otome Game Sekai wa Mob ni Kibishii Sekai Desu (Mobuseka) Spring 2022 - 12 Episodes I actually found this concept hilarious. I was a little concerned that the initial appeal would wear off but I found that the spite of the character really held his own throughout this story and I ended up enjoying each episode. 7/10 - Good
Tumblr media
Skeleton Knight in Another World Spring 2022 - 12 Episodes This has honestly been a refreshingly simple isekai. I love how they didn't try to add any twists or make it exceptionally different. Thought as it comes with the territory, it did feel like it started to trail off near the end and the story ended up being a little plain.   6/10 - Fine
Tumblr media
The Greatest Demon Lord is Reborn as a Typical Nobody Quitting Heroing Spring 2022 - 12 Episodes Each Combining the standard “isekai/fantasy” genre shows. Of course, there had to be a few of these in the season. Now I’ve seen my share of horrible isekais and standard fantasy anime over the last few season and I’d say 90% of them are tastefully trash, that said, these 2 barely scraped by. Quitting Heroing was technically something we haven’t seen before and I was pleasantly surprised by the simplicity of the series and the characters. As for the Greatest Demon Lord, this is a hard copy of Demon King Academy with some obvious alterations to make this ✨unique. It really wasn’t worth watching, everything that was decent in this you can get 5x better in Demon King Academy. (Especially since season 2 has been announced for that, this one just isn’t worth it.) Quitting Heroing - 6/10 - Fine Greatest Demon Lord - 4/10 - Bad
Tumblr media
Aharen-San wa Hakarenai Shachiku-san wa Youjo Yuurei ni Iyasaretai Spring 2022 - 12 Episodes Each I’m combining these two as they’re incredibly similar in terms of my thoughts on it. They’re both wholesome series. Regarding Aharen-san, I really hated that they decided to try and take the romantic route.. could’ve just left it how it was and it’d just be a decent wholesome series. In the end, both of these series were cute but to be honest, really nothing special about them that we haven’t seen before. Maybe this kind of show just isn’t for me. 5/10 - Average
Shokei Shoujo no Virgin Road (The Executioner and Her Way of Life) Spring 2022 - 12 Episodes This was unexpectedly disappointing. The concept was strong and the character design visually looks good but I felt the story ended up being really weak and didn’t really go anywhere. 5/10 - Average   Mahoutsukai Reimeiki - Dawn of the Witch Spring 2022 - 12 Episodes Frankly I should’ve just thrown this one in with the other two fantasy ones. Again, not a new concept, Black clover covers the lack of magic aspect and the outcast witch has also been done before. Ok story, ok animations and ok characters, some of the ecchi in this series made me seriously uncomfortable on top of everything else. 4/10 - Bad   There you have it, the majority of the Spring 2022 anime season. I have lots to look forward to for the summer but hopefully I'll be able to pick and choose rather than stupidly pushing through all of the mid shows.

Spacebattles is such a confusing forum. Amazing authors with a lot of high quality and high word count fanfiction, but absolutely terrible readers. Just read a Hamefura/Mobuseka crossover story and the last arc had dozens of readers bitching and moaning that the main character didn't a nuclear missile on his enemies. Shitting on the author for a power of love asspull IN A FUCKING HAMEFURA/MOBUSEKA CROSSOVER. Some people are just wretched and shouldn't be allowed access to the internet.

If you feel comfortable sharing, could you list the >10 obscure isekais you are currently obsessed with?
Yes of course!! With explanations and all!!!!! (Note: i am treating a series as “obscure” when i have 0 friends to talk abt any of them wiht :,) some of these are probably actually populair and im just not aware lol)
1. Lout of the counts family
I want og cale henituse biblically spiritually. i decided i want to get top surgery bc of this series. I am mentally unwell over this man. I would love this man if he was a worm. Literally changed every single pfp i have on anything to this man. I HAVE BEEN RANTING ABOUT THIS MAN FOR A MONTH NOW. MY FRIENDS ARE MAKING FUN OF ME ITS THAT BAD
2. Villains are destined to die
Love my girl penelope! I think her paranoia and the way she interacts with some charas is a little frustrating sometimes but i understand it at the same time, her situation is so scary and she doesnt know everything thats going on 🙏 i wanna go clubbing with her and let her have a moment to just have fun without any worries!!!!! I also like iklies i genuinely think hes just a mentally unstable 17 y old, a very therapy heavy 3 month plan could help him a lot
3. Mobuseka
Classic trash isekai anime but with the twist of it being very funny so i love this series anyway!!!!! Like this guy isnt winning by being kind hes just actively cheating his way through life, beating up nobles with shovels and just being a giant dick. I love this guy 10/10
4. The one with the vending machine
This one isnt obscure at all but i still wanna mention the anime where the guy is so obsessed with vending machines that he dies saving a vending machine from falling off a cliff. And then he wakes up in a fantasy world as a vending machine.
5. I’ve become the heroes rival
THIS SERIES HAD ME ACTUALLY LIKING A STRAIGHT COUPLE. LIKE OF COURSE I WOULDVE PREFERRED THE LESBIANS BUT MAN. THE STRAIGHT COUPLE WAS PRETTY ROMANTIC NGL.
6. I favor the villainess
AGAIN NOT VERY OBSCURE SINCE ITS GETTING ANIMATED BUT THIS IS LITERALLY WHAT I WISH EVERY OTHER ISEKAI MANGA/ANIME OUT THERE WAS I LOVE THEM I LOVE HOMOSEXUALITY
7. The way to protect the female leads older brother
This one is pretty dark compared to the rest on this list but roxana is SO smart and her and her mans are so ❤️❤️❤️ together i hope neither of them dies :,)
8. Beware of the villainess
I LOVE MELISSA NINE AND YURI SO MUCH!!! CARTENA AND BOBBY ARE SO ADORABLE TOGETHER!!! I LOVE HOW MELISSA DOESNT GIVE IN WITH ANY OF THE TERRIBLE MEN AND SHE IS SUCH A GIRLS GIRL!!!!!! MELISSA YOU ARE A ROLE MODEL
9. Omniscient readers viewpoint
Again. Not that obscure since its getting a series. And i havent even read it completely yet. But 1 friend of mine told me about it and now my tiktok page is getting bombarded with orv angst and im 💀💀💀 literally crying at every fucking stupid slideshow. HOW IS ONE SERIES THIS SAD. MAN.
10. The empress’ lipstick
Ngl i dropped this after she panicked about finding the lipstick bc i could not handle the stress. Somehow i can handle roxanas crazy plots but i couldnt handle this??? IN ANY CASE its still a really funny manhwa and i think the main character is hilarious while also giving some insight about beauty standards somehow???
Another series’ ive been enjoying is “royal marriage”, its not an isekai but it follows a really smart woman maneuvering through noble life and getting rid of trash and standing up for herself so its the same vibe as some of them villainess isekais :P
