yes, if the person has our world's sensibilities they should not be able to just... go and get a slave with no issues. unless it was to save them from a bad slave owner or something.let's be honest it is strange how nearly every Isekai MC has no problem with having slaves
the only reason I would think it is supposedly fine to just arrive there and have slaves is for monter tamers, since, you know, monsters,
or if it is supposed to become romantic later, someone the person bought the slave but... essentially they made sure the only reason the other person is a slave is to not be able to become the slave of anyone else. if I remember right that's the method used in that reincarnated with a castle in the sky one... and that's kinda the only one I can remember right now.
Because, without that? Any relationship would come with this caveat: they are not equals. As much as the MC would trick themselves into it, the other side is still their property and would only go against their orders on the level whatever is keeping them a slave allows them to. There would always be the nagging doubt about if they really are interested in the person or if they are just acting as they are expected to.
I believe that, as annoying as he was about it, that dude from the manga where his house was burned down so he used his remaining money to buy a slave to travel was the only time I saw this being addressed in the manga itself for long.
Which... is extremelly ironic since it is NOT an isekai as far as I remember, dude was raised in that world with slavery and all.
