Oh god, I forgot about this stupid fucking recap in the middle. lmao
The death/suicide reborn in another world premise is starting to get worn out too.
Makes sense.
I'm always surprised by Japanese authors that are big into Western games and history and such, though I know I shouldn't be. Twitter has been pretty enlightening in this regard - you can find quite a few Japanese twitter users who post a lot of Western games, including genres that are more niche like the aforementioned Europa Universalis. I know of at least one user whose feed consists of nothing but games like FTL, Starbound, Terraria, Factoria, and other games that you wouldn't necessarily think would court a Japanese audience.
Out in the West, mayhaps. I suspect, however, that the absurdity of the premise was actually a necessity for it to get enough attention to get an anime adaptation in the first place.
Just my hunch, mind you. I don't really have anything to back it up (other than the current state of the Japanese LN and manga market, anyway).
It's a trend in Japan atm. The sheer number of isekai LNs and manga being released lately is pretty unsustainable.
They'll get tired of it after running it into the ground and then move on to another bandwagon premise eventually (and it, too, will be run into the ground).
Yeah, at least it's not another Magic School show.
Edit: Also that old dude is obviously going to die.
Some sort of magic foci.
I recommend checking out the Symphogear series if you are interested. Easily one of my favourite Aoi Yuuki roles.
Girls in mecha-looking armor powered by songs beating the crap out of colorful creatures. It's basically a singing-punching anime with Aoi Yuuki, Nana Mizuki and a few other well-known seiyuus.

MILLIONS DEAD!
This is the stupidest case of Deus ex Machina I've seen just because he can't fucking let go of one person out of billions.
If you didn't see the opening episodes
Tanya was originally a salaryman in modern day Japan who was trust into that world after a disgruntled former threw him infront of a train - Being X threw him "in hell" in an attempt to make him worship it because he refused to believe in the existence of god even when presented which would be considered irrefutable evidence at the moment of his death
I mean to be fair this guy is really really stubborn.
Sometimes you gotta prove a point man, it's the principle of the thing!
Flying Weimar Republic loli witch, FYI
he's killed so many unrelated people over this point
Sounds like god.
I'm gonna bet that once she's done and through all this she'll wish she were dead.
I think her goal is specifically to not die otherwise she goes to hell no?

I never caught the end of JOKER GAME, this will be a good chance. JOKER GAME (which starts in less than an hour) is basically an anthology series with a developing plot featuring a secret group of spies who specially trained for Japan during WW2 who will be eradicated and distanced from Japan and they know it if they fuck up stationed in different parts of the world, it's pretty well done and if you love some short form spy thrillers, you'll probably like it.
ReLife was a surprise for many last year, it's a romance drama anime that decided to release every episode on the same day and it's actually pretty good. The concept is weird but they handle it in an interesting way, it's about someone who regrets the life they've taken and choices they've made and get an opportunity to go through their teens again, but it's surprisingly well done if you like romance drama animes.

ReLife is a show where based on the premise you'd imagine it's just shitty wish fulfillment, but then you give it a chance and it turns out to be a really good show with great characters that despite being about an adult going back to highschool is actually more about social commentary on adult life in Japan than anything else thematically
