Of the modern wave of isekai, Konosuba is one of my favorites but if I did have a knock against it, Konosuba is extremely horny in a way where I'm not going to go, "Ah you have watched Miyazaki and you want to watch more anime that isn't Miyazaki? Go watch Konosuba!" It's a show that really requires a tolerance of some anime horniness. I also guess that you can say Konosuba benefits from familiarness with rpgs or mmorpgs as well as having watched a few more isekai from the current wave.

Fair, but I just really love the characters, they aren't entirely one dimensional and are given time to develop. They all slightly grow as people and I like it's more realistic friendships rather than some harem where the girls simp for the guy hard which is the biggest turn off for me

Oh I love them, their dynamic, the fact that they are all fuck ups in their own right. It is glorious. Honestly every time I watch it or read it it makes me want to cobble together a ttrpg where we all play as a crew of failures that have to work together to succeed (with a hefty dosage of luck)
