What pises me about isekai is that the protagonists come from earth they have presumably a highschool education. Even if they dont remember much they should be aware of methodological stuf like the sientific method. Thats a huge exploit.
If they used their earth knoledge say some nerd gets isekaied with the litle red book or with one of those several thousand pages highschool and college elemental phisics books. Or with a book of tables. It could get really interesting.
But the protagonist usually gets a magic cheat. If they are going to rely on magic why not make them a native from the begining?
Even the stupid harry poter book handeled the concept better on its first half.
You might be interested in Ascendance of a Bookworm, it's about a girl using modern knowledge to try to make books in ye olde medieval times. It's also the opposite of a power fantasy: she reincarnates in the body of a frail and sickly peasant girl.
fair enough, but i figured they were complaining about character having magic so they should probably be assured it doesn't turn to shit in season 2 or whatever
I enjoyed it, though it can get a little dark (they're peasants in a highly stratified medieval society after all). There are 3 seasons and unfortunately it seems unlikely to get more, though the source light novel goes way longer.

she does get magic, but it's very much not something she uses to start fighting everyone and winning
I was trying to avoid spoiling it, lol, I've finished the show.

Fair
That sounds decent.
