Watching some isekai slop called something like "making 80000 gold in another world for my retirement" and it's aight so far. Her dumb isekai ability is she can teleport, and swap between worlds as well.
She's like "yeah im gonna sell stuff from earth here to make gold so i don't gotta work in either world" and it's one of those settings where people react to the shit she brings over like they should. Like a swiss army knife just representing an impossible level of craftsmanship for the technology level of the place she's in. Or like she wears a cultured pearl necklace to meet a count and his family and the countess freaks out about it, the size and uniformity of the pearls, how it's not just something that would be considered expensive but just having so many perfect matching pearls would make it a priceless work of art.
I'm just at the part where she sets up her store and gets her first customers and basically everything is like magic to them. She feeds them fish and everybody is like 🤮🤮🤮 until they eat it, and they explain it's because they're like 10 days from the coast, and it'd only barely be possible to bring fish with like, 3 days off straight riding swapping out pre prepared stagecoaches and horses and riding them to exhaustion. And even then, only in the winter with the use of ice and snow to keep it fresh. So where the fuck is she getting this fresh fish?
They think she's a witch, lol
I love me my isekai slop
HOW??? how could carnival row possibly make the antiracist definitely-not-bolsheviks supporting the fairy jewish-allegory that not-london put into a literal ghetto in the last season---the bad guys?
like they're doing the typical "bad revolutionaries murder" thing but provide overwhelming evidence in the text of the show that the violence is absolutely necessary and justified. you're really going to expect viewers to somehow sympathize with the people the show has doing apartheid, lynchings, & murdering people for miscegenation?
Liberals that go something like "you can't use american racism theory for Europe, it's a whole other context!!" are going to be my favourite genre of takes from now on.
OF COURSE I CAN, YOU BANANA STEALING EUROAPE, THEORY IS MEANT TO BE APPLIED TO DIFFERENT CONTEXTS
