@fourthsheep I think that explanation is a bit of a stretch, since even in the many worlds interpretation spacetime moves "forward" at the same rate, so moving to an "alternate world/parallel universe" would have to put him in a world very near the same time as his own (much like the activation of Okabe Rintarou's Reading Steiner in Steins;Gate). Such a movement shouldn't violate causality (i.e., no faster-than-light travel), whereas moving back as much as 13 years would require performing something akin to a time leap and violating causality.

Besides, isekai generally involves the protag moving to a different world than his own and leveraging some unique knowledge or skills not native to the new world. Given that Shikkaku Mon no Saikyou Kenja https://mangadex.org/title/21901/sh...sara-ni-tsuyokunaru-tame-ni-tensei-shimashita doesn't have an Isekai tag and features an OP protag who travels forward in time within the same world and leverages his "cheat"-like knowledge, I think it would make sense to remove the Isekai tag here as well.


TL;DR: Isekai carries the connotation of the protag moving to a different world than his/her own, which this protag does not. Given that other similar stories don't carry the Isekai tag, this one shouldn't either.
One of the problems with this is the shadow world and the Artemis system, which goes back in time to another parallel world, as the real world is not affected by decisions made in the shadow world, so the parallel worlds having different times in this is a definitive possibility, with magic being a thing, maybe in the past some used heal magic to heal the past, like 10 years or smth, and many things can happen, and there is space distortion, so it being an isekai is definitely possible, if you really think about it

Please tell me ur joking
Who knows... Some people are just... never mind, let's not start a fight.


Just saw that this series ended... I still have 60 chapters to read. Hopefully, it got a quality boost because it had potential!

Let's finish it, then I will be back and give you guys my feedback.

Just finished and holy shit this was good. I was genuinely tearing up at the end there.

I highly recommend this to anyone who likes magic, funny character and happy endings.
