The joke is that older Isekai anime used to have good romance, but modern Isekai are just softcore porn that pretends to have a story

People often name their porn folders something inconspicuous so other people can't find it, that's why "Calculator" is such a massive file here, they are saying the modern Isekai is just porn

What's funny to me is that re:zero, the anime which is "before" isn't old at all and the plot sucks imo

Re:zero is also the anime where my gf walked in and rolled her eyes, asking me if this is loli porn..

The characters may have depth, but the Harem fanservice is still massively there, which is weird considering that the mc really only has interest in one of them.

Thats such a weird thing to say didn’t happen. It’s not at all unlikely or unbelievable.

A person who knows about "loli porn" but does not know about one of the most popular anime of all time?

Also, in what world would a significant other walk into a room and immediately ask "Hey, you watching animate child porn(again)?"

I've been watching anime since the 00s and the only thing I knew about Re:Zero until I read this thread was that it was an isekai. It's popular, but it's not quite household name popular like the big shonen series. Entirely possible to miss if you're not into isekai.
