Is it another isekai bait and switch?

Kind of have mixed feelings on this. There’s an absolutely massive plot twist that, knowing in advance, lets me enjoy the (very) subtle clues. Not knowing about the twist makes it come off as random isekai slop though.

This is super-mega spoilers, so if you have any intention of reading/watching it then don’t look:
Title
The guy that got isekaied doesn’t actually exist. “He” was a fake personality implanted into the Last Boss to try and reign her in by the goddess, who is disguising herself as the Last Boss’s advisor. Which is why the assistant looks so uneasy when the Last Boss wipes out the orks in episode 1: because even with the fake personality and memories throwing her off, the Last Boss still has her instincts.

Oh, this made me check the manga series. Fun stuff. And I think I know exactly what you’re talking about.
