@HaikenEdge I guess its because reversi are so much easier to manufacture and learn the rules than chess/shogi.

ah yes Othello....i remember getting addicted to it. the only thing stopping me from addiction is the complete lack of anyone to play with...and the Othello set being missing.

But go should be similarly easy to manufacture and the rules aren't that much harder to learn. At this point, Reversi just feels like a super played out trope.

@HaikenEdge really? this is the first manga I've seen use this game. There is the game that is even older than chess where there is attacker and defender with the king surrounded by pieces which is defenders and attackers are on the outside of the board. To win as an attack you must surround the king and as defender the king has to get to the edge of the board or something like that. That one is more fun that chess imo though i haven't played in years to the point i don't even remember the name lol

Checkers would have worked too.

But Japanese are under the impression that they invented Othello.

Why not put something new in the story, the games like monopoly, snake&ladders , ludo or game of life.

I’m not a writer but I can say that most of these so called “isekai authors” have very limited creativity and imagination. Their plots are ctrl+C ctrl+v just change character names, change it a bit like copying your friend’s assignments.
at this point the readers can guess the plot even from reading the summaries, the mc will find the 1st heroine, then finding bath, then rice, soy sauce, miso, curry, then finding onsen, and katana. after that a longass “hiatus” or cancelled
