Riri I love you please use your words!!!!

She's the gayest person in history! She would definitely say yes if you just asked!

Got a selection of good things on sale, stranger!

Maybe it’s just wishful thinking, but I’m getting a slight Nagori Yu hit off this one—that dynamic of the tall, knowing but benign (and slightly amused) older woman and the blushing, naive, and eager-to-please (and be pleased) younger girl.

I guess the centipede tattoo > snake goddess thing too . . .

It does have a little bit of that "small one goes doki doki / big one goes ara ara" energy

It really is super pretty. I'm not sure how Sakaki from Azumanga Daioh got into geology, but I'll support her.

DO IT MANATSU GO GET YOUR GIRL

There's a rather famous interview with the director of the first 3 games that mentioned they studied a bunch of yaoi vn's so they could write male dialogue better and admitted they went a little overboard.

I didn't know this and it's hilarious

Even I know that breaking up via text is considered the absolute worst.

But is it worse than formally cheating because you haven't broken up yet?

Breaking up via text is I think the lesser of two evils here.

Also it'd be interesting if it turns out the boy is also cheating on our MC, it might make the breakup easier and he wouldn't be able to judge the MC in theory

I will accept this outcome provided he's cheating with another boy

The old boom and zoom

Labeled, for your convenience.

Hakari and Karane kiss occasionally, but Nano and Shizuka have this dynamic that's somehow just a Class S manga from approximately 2008

a reverse isekai is when you walk into a parked truck and it disappears

lol nailed it

Mr. Jones, you genuinely dont know what hyperbole is? Or is this all just some sort of joke? I'm apalled if this is the latter. I'm out.

No, I know what hyperbole is. The problem the point that you're using hyperbole to make.

Just loaded up the "Recently Added" page - the average number of tags per upload, at this very moment and excusing anything that might be on my very short blacklist, is 7.8

I genuinely don't understand what you are even trying to say with this. Perhaps this conversation has run its course. I leave the rest to the mods.

What I'm saying is that there's nothing on here with "hundreds" or even "dozens" of tags. The hypothetical that there could be, while worth keeping in mind, remains a hypothetical rather than a currently existing problem, so the argument that reverse isekai should be removed because there are already too many tags is, at best, something to table for future discussion if tag saturation becomes an issue in the future.

The previous argument, that reverse isekai has some kind of issue as far as "historical and etymological sense" would be applying a completely different set of standards to tags than the kind that everyone here is accustomed to, and if we applied it to every set of tags on the site I'm genuinely confused as to what would happen.

Sigh... there are database sites like Visual Novel database that are enitrely made for the purpose of tagging every aspect of a visual novel. But unsurprisingly on actual storefronts the same VNs do not have the same dozens of tags, because this is an unnecessary distraction, not to mention very easy to spoil content or overinflate perception with irrelevancies. There is a single page with a blonde girl? Add the "blonde side character" tag! The protag is secretly a bad guy? Add the "evil protagonist" tag!

I give up...

This could be remedied by improving the search function to search through the synopsis. You must comprehend why giving a story hundreds of tags is inane...

Can you find me a story on here with hundreds of tags?

What a terrible deflection... Please stop being intellectually dishonest. You said that adding a bunch of superfluous tags like the ones I mockingly mentioned would be helpful, so I confronted you with the end result of such overzealous tagging. Are there any stories with the 80s or America tag? No? It is almost as if we had been talking about hypotheticals.

We already have:
Old school
School life
Language gap
Social gap

and of course
FREEDOM
which should be enough to cover pretty much everything in your post above. The reader remains largely functional in spite of this. I don't know why you feel the need to accuse me of "intellectual dishonesty," I'm just explaining how I use the website.

Genuinely all of the tags you're mentioning have at least the potential to be helpful. When there's a lot of stories updating at once, or when I'm trying to find a specific story that I don't remember the title of, more tags are actually better, they help make series more distinctive in my brain. I've found myself more likely to enjoy manga where a protagonist comes from a fantasy setting to Japan than the reverse, so tags recognizing the difference helps me find what I like! How... awful? I guess?

The purpose of tags is not to make etymological or historical sense. Reverse isekai gives me information about the work that Fantasy by itself doesn't. I don't see what's so terrible about that.

Characters coming to our world from another is a standard trope in most supernatural stories

wha

Also yeah I don't think the majority of stuff tagged with Supernatural on here has characters coming over from another world? Usually they just co-exist with humans, that's how pretty much all of our vampire stories are.

Do I have to mention the obvious examples? For Shounen anime you got Bleach. For sci-fi you got basically half of every single TV show having this plot in at least a couple of episodes. Lots of JRPGs love to have characters or invaders from another world as plot points (the other usual one is "ancient civilisation which may or may not have come from space").

Coming from another/parallel/time slipped world or dimension is a very common trope in fiction. Before the dreaded isekai garbage started to be overused, the concept of a protagonist going to another world was also common and didn't need its own stupid tag anyway. Isekai does appeal to a more specific Japanese fantasy of some generic boring male self-insert jumping to another world to get a harem or become super important and amazing, because power fantasy. Isekai is to other world exploration what fast food is to a 5 star meal.

In that light, I am disgusted by the idea of making a concept as simple as characters visiting from another world be associated with this term.

This objection doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me, if I'm honest. I can't generalize it without confusing myself, to wit: Two women falling in love was also a common trope before the yuri genre got popular. Do we need to delete the yuri tag? A character sweeping away their lover in their arms was a trope long before nerds developed their own word for it, so do we need to delete the princess carry tag? Besides, if you dislike isekai so much, isn't it helpful to have a tag for it so you know what to avoid?

I love Kou x Rin but something about this picture makes me uneasy, she doesn't look like the good kind of surprised
