Isekai/regression/transmigration are super popular due to the escapism they offer, but they also end up being painfully derivative. So much of it is copying what other stories did, but lack the creativity to do something new with it. It's like the Human Centipede of anime.
Since anime runs behind the manga/manwha/manhua, I would say you are experiencing anime that pounced on Konosuba's popularity and are running "loser MC haha" into the ground.
Even this was originally considered to be a fresh spin on the typical MC, at least from a few years ago. It's sort of like how bog standard harem MC dudes were very bland losers (think Love Hina, etc.) so the male audience could project themselves onto, but then once light novels started to pick up the MCs started to become competent and a little angster (think Sword Art Online, etc.).
I've fallen off a lot of anime since isekai is so prevalent. And one of its major pitfalls is the determination to make the MC such an OP as fuck character that the story is incapable of producing a compelling villain character. When the MC does nothing but steamroll over any opposition he has, and antagonists all have to be incompetent and stupid, shit just gets boring.
But the whole "people just can't see HOW POWERFUL I REALLY AM" is slop that 13 year olds eat up and once they get sick of it there is always the next back to 13 year olds to get in line. Which has made isekai almost impossible to get stale at this point. It's frustrating because there is nothing stopping people from writing better, but why make the effort when you're going to get rich all the same?
