This. Of course isekai is a thing, but it's not like the concept is exclusive to Japanese culture
The important difference is that if it's an Isekai you get a harem and your story is less interesting than wet paper mache. If it's a Narnia then you get Sunday school dressed up as fun.
You're really not into this type of fiction, I get it
I thought they died on that train, and because they died they were brought to the end times/ revelations? It's been a long long time since I read all the Narnia books though. I just remember lines of creatures coming before Totally Not Jesus and being judged as stars fell from the skies?
...or is that what's happening in an isekai, and I've just not realized it?
