Sorry for broken english

So... 6 of them is isekai isn't it? Would the trend follow till 2017?

I never take a look (yet) at Konosuba, DanMachi, and GATE, but the rest indeed has their own charm. My favorite maybe Mahouka, Grimgar, and Slime-sama, but I really wish to read more of no.9. Saw early manga chapters of that one and it's interesting indeed.

Not really... at first it was good, but later it just another "I got transferred to another world and gain powerful power that can learn anything deus ex machina style, and somehow able to make my own country with followers and easily become powerful and respected" There is just too much this type of manga/novel these days, although I don;t hate them but seeing how the main character gain everything so easily is kinda boring

agreed, that's the most boring part of the genre, though some of them manage to be fun regardless of that;(thinking remonster because of how minority-ish it feels and getnaked because of the feminist themes and overall sillyness, like stopping a fight between the hero and the demn lord both using their op sword by dual wielding a knife and fork, if your c s gonna be op, make it ridiculously op so she can do that.

I both disagree and agree with you. I do agree it was better for the first like 100 chapters but from what you said, it gets bad pretty early on, and I don't agree with that. I'm not really good at explaining myself but i'll try here. I really enjoyed the setting up of a country and the "politics?" as they were well written (imo) and the protagonist isn't insanely OP. In fact she is farrrrrrrrrrr from being the most OP character in the story and she almost died to a human rather than one of the other demon lords. Also the only thing she really gains easily is the respect of the goblins, all the others, she gains for a good reason.
