When I first started watching Release That Witch, I expected another fun kingdom-building isekai with some clever engineering tricks and a likeable protagonist. You know the formula: modern guy gets transported to a fantasy world, introduces advanced technology, builds an empire, and outsmarts everyone around him. For a while, that’s exactly what the series feels…
If you’ve spent enough time in the anime and light novel community, you’ve probably seen the endless debate: Is The Beginning After the End just a copy of Mushoku Tensei? As someone who genuinely enjoys both series, I think that argument completely misses the point. Yes, the similarities are obvious in the beginning. Both stories…
If you told me a few months ago that the creator of Gintama would return with a reverse-isekai comedy about a defeated Demon King trapped in a Japanese classroom and that one of the most talked-about chapters would revolve around a toilet, I honestly wouldn’t have doubted you.

If you just wrapped up the anime adaptation of Kunon the Sorcerer Can See (aka Majutsushi Kunon wa Mieteiru), you’re probably feeling that mix of satisfaction and frustration. The story gives you just enough to get hooked—but nowhere near enough to feel complete. I’ll be honest: this is one of those series where the anime…
If you’ve been hearing people say “isekai is dying” for the past five years, 2026 is about to hit them with a truck-kun of reality. This isn’t just another strong year for the genre — it feels like the Isekai World Cup Finals. Titans are returning. Fan-favorite light novels are entering their most brutal arcs….
