Otome Isekai

What's the full title? I'm not quite into isekais as much as I am to romcom, psychological, and drama LNs, but I've read KonoSuba from the fifth volume up to end, and I'm currently reading Re:Zero Volume 18 right now so I'm pretty acquainted with the genre.

Also, I agree. A lot of character monologues are lost when adapting a text-based piece into a picture-based one. That's why I'm pretty unsatisfied with the anime adaptations of light novels - they just don't do justice to the characters at all and those that should be redeemable or loveable end up getting hated or shallow. I know it's hard to translate character internal monologues into something tangible on the screen, but still it makes me sigh. :<

Yeah yeah, that's what I hope happens. Na macurious sila sa daloy ng story that they start reading the novels. I pointed them to A Certain Magical Index and Classroom of the Elite as examples of brilliant light novel series that have crappy anime adaptations. One of my friends dived into one LN - That Time I Reincarnated As A Slime - but nothing more, nothing less. Well, I guess that's a win. Somehow.

Ang lungkot ng may hilig kang niche hobby and wala kang mapagkuwentuhan sa circle of friends mo. I love light novels but ny friends only love manga, manhwa, and anime. Well, I know that not everyone is into reading walls of text and I don't resent them for that but wala lang, malungkot lang HAHAHA wala akong ma-impart-an ng saya or reactions ko sa nabasa ko

Ganda ng Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki-kun light novels. One of my recommendations if you like high school slice-of-life light novels or if you just enjoy things like Oregairu or Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai. Tinapos ko yung ten volumes ng Tomozaki-kun in three days HAHAHA

The long ones (that basically spoil the plot in the title itself) are mostly isekai, made to distinguish themselves from each other in the oversaturated isekai light novel/manga market. Probably 90% of all long anime titles are from the isekai genre alone.

Asobi Asobase OP: What the girls think they are Asobi Asobase ED: What they really are

Anyway, I agree with you. The KonoSuba EDs in general are too underrated. Like hell, everyone remembers the iconic Kimi to mita sekai from the first OP ("fantastic dreamer") and the opening beat from the second OP ("Tomorrow"), but they seem to forget the calm EDs.
