Escapism (Isekai/Videogame based/Fantasy)
Manga
Manga/Manhwa I feel will immerse you into their world.
Although there is more but I don’t want to fill this up with poor Mangas/Manhwas.

Recommendations for people new to reading: Solo levelling, Overlord, The greatest estate developer and Tensei shitara slime datta ken
I'll be updating more!

One of the most underrated gems. Though it has a predictable plot the pacing and the elements of gaming keep you hooked. Good characters and game design.

Although not isekai, it takes you to the fantasy world and I think this may well be the next hot anime “when” adapted. Feels good and original.

I think Solo Leviling created the whole overpowered mc trend. The OG of Korean isekai trend.

One of the best Japanese isekai. Satisfies your shounen hunger. The world building and character building is very intriguing. More popular as well.

Best Manhwa to binge read. Three different seasons with three different art styles, yes it maybe difficult to get adjusted initially but each season has its own charm.

This manga had a lot of promise but sadly got dropped. Nevertheless I had fun reading the 30 odd chapters. Worth giving a read

If you love overpowered main characters don’t go any further than overlord. From the meme culture to the high intensity action, overlord is a good new age manga.

If you are talking about immersing yourself in a world, Kingdom is unmatched. Truly a masterpiece. This is neither isekai nor videogame based but it is rather based on historical events. History, tactics, revenge, politics you name it , it’s got all. personal favourite.

Solid manga that is witty and at the same time deals with real world problems given that the mc was a shut in NEET in his previous life.
Warning: Has sexual content and a possible harem. So brace yourself.

It has the potential to be an amazing find IF it maintains the current pace and keeps clear of generic clichés in the subsequent chapters.

Honestly this manga is average, but it is also so refreshing at the same time. Somewhat therapeutic I would say.
