    It also strikes me as a tonal shift from the title styles in the 90’s and aughts where it would be something like “Elementia Axion” named after whatever MacGuffin was in the story. We went from “Sounds cool, gives you no information about what it will be like” to “Awkward title, lots of information about the title.”

      Thinking about it, I wonder if it's an adaptation to trying to compete in an oversaturated market, like if the idea is "there is so much to pick from nobody is gonna look at the summary of a work if the title doesn't really grab them, so the title should be the summary instead" so that it's more visible to the people who want exactly what it bills itself as.

        Probably also reflects the shift to a more web-dependent industry/market, where verbose titles are more useful for gaming SEO.

            Right, work in whatever flavor of sexual feature is focused on in the isekai in the title so it turns up when horndogs search for that term.
