Getting reincarnated into another world as an unknown race isn't what someone would usually think would happen after surviving a very close call with death... and then dying anyway right after. While he had faint expectations of this possibility, they were fleeting fantasies and delusions from when he was young, never had he thought too much in depth about it.

Now, however, he'd wished he could have had more time to explore those fantasies.

Stranded in an entirely different world as a strange species and different body, armed with nothing but a head, two hands, feet— and a tail, she(?)... now needs to survive, adapt, and overcome, with almost 0 survival skills or knowledge of where, what, when, and how about everything. Questioning why are the monsters so damn big? Debating if this glowing mushroom is edible? Is this tree following me around? What is me and who is that? And narrating myself to keep my waning sanity alive...

"Isekai is too hard!"

Author's Note: [edited as of 2024-09-16]
This is my first attempt at writing a story, so keep your expectations low and your hopes high.
I try to write during my free-time, therefore I'll be focusing more on quality than upload consistency.

While the title may be somewhat of a misnomer to the more avid anime fans out there, I assure you that this is as far from possible from the more light hearted depictions of the slice-of-life genre. The original intent of the story's name was to be the telling of what would be a day-to-day experience of a person who has been absconded from their home and thrown into a world of fantasy, with everything in between be it grim or light. If you're curious, try to at least give at try!

P.S: Also on Royal Road!

Genuinely interesting and the way it starts is fairly different from the standard tropes.

I am looking forward to how it develops.

The protag being a non-human with no real survival skills or world understanding makes for a refreshing feeling.

Them being physically stronger that what they understand and therefore underestimating their own capability provides a good growth curve at the start without having the protag be OP from the start.

Of the many stories I've read on this site, Isekai no Nichijou stands out in how carefully and slowly it chooses to develop its characters and plot. It doesn't drown you in action or plot after plot like other stories, nor does it rush interactions between characters. Rather, it's a mere slice of life, but that's its greatest strength, for in not limiting itself to a single end goal, it's able to flesh out the complexities of each and every one of its characters and environments; it feels alive. It is also among the very few isekai novels I've read that really delves into the challenges and consequences of being suddenly ripped off your world and placed into a completely alien one.

In particular, the main character, Syuufarin, is both loveable and deeply troubled. Despite a difficult arrival and, in general, being an introspective anxiety-ridden bundle, the elven village she finds herself in ceaselessly showers her with love and affection, giving her the space to gently blossom and come out of her shell, which is beautiful. In fact, every character in this story is that loveable, for Jemdins manages to write them full of subtleties and nuances, of hidden stories and mysterious wisdoms, giving the entire world an astonishing depth that echoes our own.

Truly, I love the writing style and themes of this story. It's unique yet well-paced, carrying deep philosophical themes yet somehow oddly comforting and funny. At its heart, Isekai no Nichijou is a kind story, like a warm hearth or a mother's embrace. While it is not afraid to explore even the mundanities of life or Syuufarin's many thoughts, at the end of the day, Syuufarin and the reader alike always find themselves somewhere akin to home, in a place of compassion and understanding. If it isn't clear enough already, read this story! It's excellent.
