isekai is a trope (don’t know how to explain better) in animes where the main character gets reincarnated in another world (usually fantasy, but not always) and carries all memories of his previous life.
This means, the protagonist “dies” in the first episode, before reincarnation. 99% of the times hit by a truck.
Isekai (Japanese: 異世界, transl. "different world" or "otherworld") is a genre of speculative fiction. It includes novels, light novels, films, manga, anime and video games that revolve around a displaced person or people who are transported to and have to survive in another world, such as a fantasy world, virtual world, or parallel universe. Usually sent via being hit by a truck, hence the pic.
Non anime examples:
Jumanji (the new ones)
Alice in wonderland
Tron
The wizard of Oz
When it comes to CCR, this isn’t all that funny, but I can’t help hearing “big wheel keep on burnin’, Proud Mary keep on burnin’” in Proud Mary. I don’t know why it sounds that way to my ears, but it does.
Also, I don’t care what anyone says, Carly Simon sings, “I had some dreams, they were clowns in my coffee, clowns in my coffee.”
“SeaMonkey is a free and open-source Internet suite. It is the continuation of the former Mozilla Application Suite, based on the same source code, which itself grew out of Netscape Communicator and formed the base of Netscape 6 and Netscape 7. SeaMonkey was created in 2005 after the Mozilla Foundation decided to focus on the standalone projects Firefox and Thunderbird. The development of SeaMonkey is community-driven, in contrast to the Mozilla Application Suite, which until its last released version was governed by the Mozilla Foundation. The new project-leading group is called the SeaMonkey Council. Compared to Firefox, the SeaMonkey web browser keeps the more traditional-looking interface of Netscape and the Mozilla Application Suite, most notably the XUL architecture. This allows the user to extend SeaMonkey by modifying add-ons for Thunderbird or the add-ons that were formerly compatible with Firefox before the latter switched to WebExtensions.”
I haven’t actually read anything he’s produced but I got very interested after playing World of Horror which is heavily inspired by his work. I feel like I’ve already seen some of the creepy stuff from The Enigma of Amigara Fault and Uzumaki so I feel less interested in starting them(Or at least starting WITH them). Do you have a favorite that isn’t one of the popular memes that you recommend?
Tomie isn’t as meme-ified as Amigara fault, or as widely adapted as Uzumaki, but is another of his bigger works, would recommend!
Also, you may have seen a few images from Uzumaki (the hair, the face) but the story is quite long and really unsettling! Would still recommend giving it a read.
