    Random Thoughts...
    I like to ask your thoughts on Isekai. I’ve read many novels we’re many MC transmigrate with many unresolved issues. The same unresolved issues you would have in a grudge or a poltergeist. Could the many failed attempted at transmigration be ghosts. And only a select few actual succeed. Like hitting the lottery.
    So what’s everyone thoughts?
    I must be tired.
    That’s what I get for not sleeping for the last four days. God I hate work.

    Is it just me or your word are just hard to digest? What do you mean here?
    Fail to transmigrate and turned to ghost? Transmigrated as a ghost?

    A worthy theory that needs deeper study as many points could be raised thinking of the matter like what about heaven and hell, or who called those who succeeded/helped them to win the lottery and why them and not any of the ghosts around :hmm:

    Reincarnation is ghosts possessing babies.

    Transmigration is people trapped in a coma in the neverending instant right before death spontaneously creating their own world to explore.

    How else do you explain the game like systems, harems, the MC always being OP, things from their original worlds existing in the new one (like onsens, soy sauce, kimonos, mikos), or how most worlds the people in the new world speak japanese for some unspoken reason.
    The reason it is like that, and the reason the MC doesn't seriously question it is because they have a subconcious mental block to prevent them from realizing that they are in their own elaborate dream.
    :blobcozy:

    Hmm. I feel like there was one more besides reincarnation and transmigration, but I'm forgetting it at the moment.

    Assuming ghosts in our world exist, why would anyone wanna come here lol? Unless they can carry their powers or technology knowledge to become an overlord.
    I think you're forgetting the definition of ghosts. They come to existance when someone does with deep regrets and attachments so it has nothing to do with transmigration, it's bound to the world it happens on.
    I get that you're talking about failed transmigration and the soul remaining on that world, but I have never read a novel that has an otherwordly ghost who doesn't know anything or anyone in that world.
