ISEKAI by Claude Glass
The term Isekai directly translates from Japanese to “different
world”, a genre of anime that focuses on a single or group of characters
who are transported from one reality to another - often fantastical in
theme and flavour.
In this, Claude Glass finds a parallel between this “journey”
between realities and his own process of consuming and producing art
and media (music, games and film) as a method of escaping from reality
to a “different world”.
The idea of “accidental travel” is also a plot device of isekai anime,
where characters are thrust against their will into another reality or
dimension. Finding this an apt metaphor for his own experiences
navigating through self-diagnosed dissociation and sporadic depressive
states, Isekai delves into Claude Glass’ reflections through his growth
and decay.
