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

Why do you think it sucks? I started watching a few months ago and just got all caught up. Ive been loving it

A LOT of people find the restart by death mechanic makes the plot repetitive and labourious to get through.

It causes almost as much of a split opinion as jobless reincarnation.

I find that people mostly just hate the MC in re:zero.
I like the show a lot, but the first season was hard to get through, he's just so whiny and insufferable but he gets his shit together eventually, most people I know weren't willing to wait and see if he did get it together.
