I had a humorous thought the other day.
I noted many have seen and apparently have gotten "Tired" of a certain kind of anime, namely those that are based on what's called "Isekai", a genre of anime.
They say since it started it's been done to death and probrably has been. It's not ususual to see such a wagon piled onto when it's successful to the point the wheels come right off, that just how it goes sometimes with the typical tropes of it being repeated over and over and over and over...... Again.
Yeah, I'd have to say if that's the case it would get old quick and stifle any real creativity over it as in something new about it.
Well, here's my thought:
One thing about is in HOW a character gets "Isekai'ed" and it typically happens in one of two, maybe three ways..... One of them being about "The Truck" or as some call it, Truck-Kun.
So.... Why not have a series about a character (Chosen one?)/group trying to put a stop to it all.....
And just call it "Truck-Kun".
You know - Them/They go around hunting this elusive truck, trying to stop it but the truck just keeps on doing it's thing, splatting random characters anywhere and everywhere to elsewhere in some strange/weird ways seemingly at will, only to disappear as quickly as it appeared.
The cops can't find it so it's up to the character or group to try and track it down.
Doesn't really matter if it has re-enforced (Magical?) tires to keep tire spikes from stopping it, or maybe someone trying to ram it with another vehicle because it's been re-enforced somehow (Plot armor?).
I mean you know it has to have the stats to resist such an attack (And why not), making it a real challenge to slow down, much less stop.
Could be anything from Sci-Fi to outright medivial weaponry of magical means used to try and stop it.... But the truck just keeps on rollin over whoever gets in it's way while possibly countering with it's own array of weapons, characters/monsters coming out the back of it (It is a truck you know) or from wherever.
And of course you have the occasional losses to it (Isekai-style no less) so the characters hunting it run the risk of getting isekai'ed themselves while trying to put an end to the madness and just carry on with their lives too.
OK - Hope you enjoyed the laugh provided here BUT think about it for a sec..... Why hasn't anyone thought of it before?
Sometimes a series or movie that makes fun of itself (Like Spaceballs) really succeeds and may even become a classic one day.
If it ever happens, here's proof I came up with the concept (Post draft
before posting this proper) and be sure all royalty checks are made out properly to me in full or I'll track you down with a truck and you know where that leads to.
