    Quick, I need an American. How do you guys pronounce ‘isekai’? Going off the correct Japanese pronunciation this post does not make any sense. These things aren’t even close in the way I say them.

        That’s ass-sea, you Neanderthal!

        It’s much funnier that way, as any right thinking human knows ;)

      i usually would hear EE-seh-kai or EE-say-kai, given that its basically I and Sekai(meaning world in japanese) put together. so how you pronounce the latter should depend on how you pronounce the word Sekai
