It's pretty much Isekai now that i've heard about the genre, in fact, it might be "the" original Isekai maybe, probably not but still, just guessing. Thanks for telling me by the way. :] |

Some people are losing their mind and praising it as masterpiece. They do like this everytime some new isekai gets aired lol Dunno about it being a Masterpiece, hell, only the first episode is out. It certainly looks like it could be very good, but there have been many anime that started out good and then turned to "meh". So like I said, in 6 months we'll see. |

My top probably Konosuba and Rezero. I can't think something else. Idk if Log Horizon count as isekai but i prefer not count it as one as it isn't a recent anime. |

Isekai anime are bad in general but they are quite enjoyable, KonoSuba would probably one of the best I've seen so far |
Oct 3, 2018 6:31 AM
#107
konosuba for comedy, grimgar for serious, death march for lolis just talking modern isekai here. otherwise juuni kokuki is still one of the best for sure. |

I personally would say Re: Zero, however has a new anime isekai this season, which seems to be the best of them all. What is Tensei shitara Slime Datta Ken. Unlike all isekais, this anime only in the first episode, showed to have a magic more complex than the one of several isekais. The magic in this world has rules, it has limits, and it's not just one more thing in the unimportant anime that nobody really cares about. |

Okay. Of all the Isekals I've seen to this day, everyone treats magic only as a visual resource and with useless rules (like water overcomes fire). And the only one I've ever seen treating magic as a really important resource (like the Hunter X Hunter nen) dealing with interesting rules and what makes you think it was Tensei shitara Slime Datta Ken. |

I'm going with a show I doubt many have heard of, but I'm pretty sure counts from what I remember. Kiba. Also konosuba. |

Off the top of my head, I would recommend Juuni Kokuki (12 Kingdoms) and Escaflowne. |

Juuni Kokuki & Tenkuu no Escaflowne are the only worthy shows that I'd consider myself enjoying within the isekai subgenre. |

Juni Kokuki and Genmu Senki Leda. Digimon is also great. |

RealGromo said: And the only one I've ever seen treating magic as a really important resource (like the Hunter X Hunter nen) dealing with interesting rules Oh...kay I'm gonna stop you right there. You haven't watched Log Horizon. *checks list* Yep. Iamkingdomhearts said: in fact, it might be "the" original Isekai maybe, probably not but still, just guessing. Dante's Divine Comedy from the 1300s, which can be considered "isekai", predates those by centuries. If not, then it's probably some medieval story about a knight getting dragged into the fairy world. Alice's Adventure in Wonderland can also be considered. And its anime adaptation, aired in 1983, probably counts as the first anime isekai. The first really clear-cut isekai is of course, in terms of conventions, at least for me, is The Chronicles of Narnia. |

Personal favorite is those who who hunt elves, wich is basically a parody of "trap in a mmorpg" anime, and a great comedy anime, followed by Digimon S1 and Re:zero wich really suprised me for an anime that has many modern isekai tropes currently watching escaflowne wich has been cool so far. need to watch more episodes |

Personally I have to break it down into two categories, serious isekai and parody isekai. For serious isekai I would say Overlord or Log Horizon, both are really well done in terms of animation, voice acting and plot. On the other hand I would say Konosuba is the best parody isekai. |

My Top picks for Isekai right now is: *Overlord *Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken I also really loved Re:Zero & SAO (minus the rape), but it pales to comparison with my top picks for isekai. Some very good isekai to watch while waiting for next seasons of whatever you're watching: Gate Log Horizon No game no life Death March kara hajimaru isekai isekai wa smartphone to tomo ni isekai maou to shoukan dorei majutsu mondaiji-tachi ga isekai kara kuru sō desu yo? (For some reason, I'm really enjoying Isekai right now, that's how I found this thread, trying to find some more to watch lol. And also I really enjoy Anime with Overpowered MC, I just find it amazing when the enemy Figures out how OP the mc is *Goosebumps*.) I'm also disappointed no one mentioned Spirited Away. |

Konosuba Re:Zero Log Horizon And Slime because it revitilized my love for the genre that was lost for quite some time |
Jan 16, 2019 10:50 PM
#138
As oversaturated as the genre is today, I would say that Konosuba is the best isekai. The comedic timing is perfect and the 4 main girls are all top tier waifus imo |
Are we really gonna make it..? |
Jan 16, 2019 10:54 PM

Re Zero Konosuba Gate Overlord Slime And Re Creators And potential one might be Tate no Yuusha But it's still airing so too early to say. |

Konosuba. Doesn't take itself seriously, all girls are best girl, great anime to watch and chill. 10/10 Gate if you want to circle jerk and bask in our superior technology wrecking havoc on filthy medieval savages. The girls are also nice. Overlord was nice at first but the latest season was garbage. |

Spirited away is the best anime movie ever and it's isekai so there's it. |
Jan 17, 2019 7:14 AM
#142
Probably No game no life, even though the movie was better than the season 1. Another isekai that was pretty good, is Log horizon. Only the first season. S2 has become quite worse. |
Jan 17, 2019 8:57 AM
#143
Probably 12 kingdoms and Youjo Senki right now. If we ever get Honzuki no Gekokujou/Ascendance of a bookworm adapted in anime and it's properly adapted, then it'll be this one instead. |

Wow, I hadn't answered until now... It's pretty obvious. It was made around the second half of the 90s and it didn't need any kind of book to come to life. (it's called Tenkû no Escaflowne if some people didn't know yet.) @CodeBlazeFate Any suggestion? |

i can clearly see that some of you can see what makes isekai anime so amazing; overlord, konasuba. then there's inuyasha, and rayberth which are far too predictable with horrible animation. i'd try death march, knight's & magic, or in another world with my smartphone. then you'll be hooked |
