Quick, I need an American. How do you guys pronounce ‘isekai’? Going off the correct Japanese pronunciation this post does not make any sense. These things aren’t even close in the way I say them.

ih-seh-kai, and ASCII like ass-key. They aren’t close, to me.

That’s ass-sea, you Neanderthal!

It’s much funnier that way, as any right thinking human knows ;)

Ee-sik-kai and ass key. I bet I’m double wrong but less wrong than OOP. There not close.

i usually would hear EE-seh-kai or EE-say-kai, given that its basically I and Sekai(meaning world in japanese) put together. so how you pronounce the latter should depend on how you pronounce the word Sekai
