@luke_chase Wish fulfilment reflects thier culture, JP is stressed out due to overwork so they want to run away on a long vacation(isekai slow life), CN has high oppression so they want to usurp those above them who put them in place (XianXia), korea lacks financial mobility so they want to hit it rich (now jp and cn also lack financial mobility, but JP already long gave up, and CN is too opressive, but KR being a "new country" that is growing rapidly, they have hope)

@eng1 Maybe that's why Americans like stories of powerful people with heart and complexities... they're ruled by powerful corporations, who are legally considered people, but without hearts....

From John Wick who kills people for a puppy; Batman who wishes to avenge his parents; Superman who wishes to protect the innocent; Flash, who is fun and full of heart... Spider-man, who is trying to do right by Uncle Ben; the X-men, powerful beings who suffer for their difference....

It's powerful beings being human....
