Fun fact: The bit in the barber story that John says are italics are these:
<I    i>
<l    l>
I'm pretty sure these are supposed to show how the haircut will look if it's uneven and if it's even.

What was the patient zero for isekais with stupidly long names? Cause that trend seems to be getting really out of control

It's because the novels some anime is based on, a lot of them were originally published on novel writing websites. It's common for people to make the title on there just a description of the story so people don't have to click through and read a description. They know what it is right away. And now it's kind of a joke.

BOOTS: Hey, Lemon, I know we've kind of moved off the intro question, but you know what I really like about internet forums? I really like...a variety of topics that one can discuss, separated into separate subjects...
LEMON: Okay, no. Fuckin, no. YOU...prick. You goddamn fuckin' prick. Here's what we're gonna find on Joe Phillip dot boardhost dot com--
JACK CHICK: Design best practices--
LEMON: We're gonna find design best practices, that's absolutely true - we will find a single thread, located in Index slash General Discussion slash Welcome To BoardHost, in which, there will only be posts by one person.
GANYMEDE: How many? How many of them?
LEMON: 317,000.

I'm five minutes in and this is already an instant classic

This was very fun to compile but difficult to edit down and there is a ton left in the doc. I just love the way this man writes.

My favorite post was sadly omitted but you can enjoy it here!

There certainly were lots of garbo harem animes I didn't bother with in the past, but I don't remember "slave harem" being as common as it is today.

It's always been bad. We tend to forget the garbage we passed over when we were younger but for every good anime/manga you enjoyed there were ten garbo harem anime/manga and things even worse.

There are also more shows being produced now.

I think the popularity of isekai partially stems from the way video games are written and the prevalence of explainer videos on YouTube. If the only other media you ingest is video games and people talking about video games, you need someone to just flat out explain the setting and stakes of the plot to you. We are also seeing the Star Wars/Marvel/DC problem where the audience is split into two groups who will waste their money, older die-hards and younger new fans and they need both to survive. Isekai is easy for younger fans to follow because the key information is spoon fed to the audience and older otaku can feel like it is somehow more deep because it appeals to their “mastery.”

Edit: Animation that is still frames and inner monologues is also cheaper to produce.
