'nother one of those useless godly power story.

Aside from that, can you imagine a Japanese noble building a German fortress castle in Japan despite not having seen any German architecture?

[ManhToanBui]

YES! GOBLIN IN DESERT
Do Japanese authors don't have imagination and/or creativity like at least try to make them some regional costumes instead of being half-naked in a fcking desert and I wouldn't have complain

Useless? Sometimes I wonder if the isekai definition of that word is different to ours...

Most of the "useless skill trope" takes time in middle age civilization. Their mind literally goes like this:

Not common > useless
Can't use for combat > useless

Finally we got Sultan Horus and his first Harem Isis
Why Egyptian Gods name, why not 🤣
In Egypt there is sands everywhere. Get it? 😭

Most of the "useless skill trope" takes time in middle age civilization. Their mind literally goes like this:

Can't use for combat > useless

And this is insane, even in a medieval setting.

At best, it might make sense in a prehistoric setting. Cavemen that barely manage to survive in a hostile environment might not realize the point of skills that don't have an immediate application to survival.
It can also work when applied specifically to combat-intensive jobs, like adventurers.
(Even then, humans developed past that point because they experimented with everything they got their hands on.)

More broadly, any society that managed past the point of immediate survival should know the benefits of non-combat skills. Particularly in a medieval setting, would I add. Literacy for example was low at that point, so reading and writing were rare non-combat skills, yet extremely valuable.

That's why when this happens outside of adventurer parties, I end up thinking that the premise is just plain insane.
No society can develop without creating tools and shelters, growing food in a sustained way, transmitting knowledge from one generation to the next... among many other things. You know, non-combat skills. Banishing someone for having an unknown or non-combat skill is just an insane premise.
Disinheriting someone as a noble for having a "commoner" job is the most I can find believable.

And all of this is basic consideration before we get to the fact that the basic benefits of some of the skills in these fictions should be pretty obvious, even as some might not be.

[Mathias]

Get sand magic
Get exiled to a desert
Have literally limitless resources at your disposal

People in Japanese fantasy settings these days have zero imagination over how something "useless" can be absolutely broken.

the goblins and ants feel weird in that desert. like i get that there are actual desert ants and stuff, but it feels unusual. like at that size maybe if they were beetles or something..? It could just be the body shape of the ants and the clothes of the goblins. dunno, cant put my finger on it, especially with the plot goin a mile a minute

The gobbos? Yes.
The ants? Nah, there is a ton of ant species that live in desert or desert-like environments. And since this is a fantasy setting, then having large honey ants isn't so out of place.
