Are they annoyed that it’s catering more and more to creepy isekai slave harem and loli shit?

On a side note, most modern isekai give me the impression of catering to an ever increasingly capitalism fatigued society. People are so desperate to escape and I see isekai taking advantage of that in a rather unhealthy way, whisking the self-insert protagonist away to a world where he is the dominator of others. I find myself disliking most modern anime that people recommend to me because a lot of it has leaned hard into the worst tropes of the genre. That’s not to say that all modern anime is bad and that old anime didn’t have the same problems, but I’m finding the ones that get popular seem to all be shit I hate lol.

Cells at Work looks cute tho

i love garbage isekai because I’m a trash person with garbage tastes and I was pleasantly surprised by The Strongest Sage with the Weakest Crest, all for surpassing the low low bar of “doesn’t glorify slavery,” while also not being conspicuously horny. I mean, it does still have a sort of harem thing going on, except they only depict attraction between the MC and one of the girls (and it’s just like, they keep blushing thinking about each other). Still gross though because this is a full ass adult man who reincarnated himself 5000 years in the future with all his memories intact. But hey, no sexualized character designs! They do have the weirdly common trope of a 5000 year old dragon turn into a loli character, but she’s played for laughs (haha she so strong she breaks things what a larf) instead of some weird ass horny :what-the-fuck-is-the-chris-hansen-emoji-FUCK: type thing

meanwhile I watch Black Summoner and like two episodes in this guy who can literally summon whatever monster and make it super strongk decides “oh I’ll just buy me a slave” why Japan why
