Okay I keep seeing this everywhere.
What does this mean and what is the reference?

Isekai is a genre where someone is taken out of their regular life and thrown into a new one.

Typically, it's going to be a more chaotic world, with different structures, like a fantasy novel type of setting, or sci-fi, or "wild west", or even standard time travel.

There's tropes involved, but that's that gist.

Isekai - ๅผ‚ไธ–็•Œ - ๅผ‚ (different, strange) ไธ–็•Œ (world).

Akin to portal fantasy in the english world.
