There's words to convey this concept in English. Might as well go all out with the memes and add "keikaku" to that dictionary.

Also I could have sworn "fan service" was a term already used just not to refer to pervy shit.

I would sooner watch those than anything that has that rat bastard Rudeus Greyrat in it

It's a crime that Jobless is as popular as it is.

People still bring up fuckin Kirito as the go-to example of a Gary Stu when Rudeus is right fucking there.

"bu-bu-but he has to process trauma he's relatable!"

Trauma involving his pedophilia. Fuck outta here.

True.

Did you know that there is a Narnia manga?

From what I understand, the books are already in the Public Domain in Japan (and also in some other places like the Canada) and this manga that I discovered already adapted "The Magician's Nephew" and "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe", but entered on hiatus at the beginning of this year...

Narnia has a manga?!?!?!

im more shocked that kintsugi made it to the list, like what?

since the 2000s anime boom is making it back expect more terms, even those odd ones.

I am fine with this but people applying it to anything fantasy at all gets silly and dumb. Calling straight up fantasy shows "native isekai" is some kind of brainrot.
