Edit: apparently this is a very common form of Japanese storytelling called an isekai. There are 8 billion people in this world, no idea can be original. And sometimes you miss out on things many other people know. I'm clearly one of today's lucky 10000.

I lived in Japan for years without knowing about the whole isekai thing; I've just never really been into anime/manga.
