Isekai is a sub-genre of fiction. It includes novels, light novels, films, manga, webtoons, anime, and video games that revolve around a person or people who are transported to and have to survive in another world, such as a fantasy world, game world, or parallel universe, with or without the possibility of returning to their original world. Isekai is one of the most popular genres of anime and shares many of its common tropes – for example, a powerful protagonist who is able to beat most people in the other world in fights. This plot device emphasizes worldbuilding and non-protagonist characters, and typically allows the audience to learn about the new world at the same pace as the protagonist over the course of their quest or lifetime. If the main characters are transported to a game-like world, the genre can overlap with LitRPG. In March 2024, the word "isekai" was added to the Oxford English Dictionary.
