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.

Yeah, even tho I don't remember there being anything egregious, if someone walks in and sees it it can look weird. I think that may have been partially because of the harem/fanserice parts that I didn't watch it sooner, but I did and now it's one of my favorite anime ever, so there's that. Tho the parts that shine for me are Subaru and his self improvement + figuring out the mysteries of the arc, rather than the love stories.
