Isekai Recommendations
Added 2022-03-16 22:36:54 +0000 UTCWith BOFURI now complete I need a new recommendation. To replace BOFURI I’ll need a new isekai series. Fantasy will be allowed too.
Choosing the top 5 most liked to be voted one.

2022-04-21 16:11:21 +0000 UTCim a little bit late to the game, but i would say watch "If It’s For My Daughter, I’d Even Defeat a Demon Lord" its not an isekai but its in a fantasy world. but be aware cuteness overload incoming.
zecke22
2022-04-21 12:31:38 +0000 UTCNot an isekai but a fantasy: Kemono no souja erin Don't think a lot know about this and it certainly is more of a relaxed one (even if there is action/tension sometimes in it)

2022-03-17 18:27:43 +0000 UTCI can highly recommend the Abridged even if you don't react to it

2022-03-17 17:10:39 +0000 UTCI watched season 1 of Sword Art but I haven’t seen any abridged series.
JoeFreshest
2022-03-17 16:09:50 +0000 UTCPlease no. The only good thing I got from that series was the music and it's not really reaction friendly.

2022-03-17 16:04:40 +0000 UTCThe anime is great
Brian Carotenuto
2022-03-17 15:14:04 +0000 UTCHave you watched Sword Art Online Abridged by Something Witty? I scrolled through your list, but might have missed it, is funny as hell
Stephen
2022-03-17 13:37:13 +0000 UTCClaymore has an anime? I never hear anyone talk about it. I hear the manga is supposed to be very good though.
JoeFreshest
2022-03-17 13:34:10 +0000 UTCThat’s one that is often recommended too.
JoeFreshest
2022-03-17 13:33:04 +0000 UTCUnfortunately I already watched it. With that said, I did enjoy it, but I didn’t do reactions for it.
JoeFreshest
2022-03-17 13:32:44 +0000 UTCThat is a kick ass anime I've watched it like 10 times
Brian Carotenuto
2022-03-17 09:36:53 +0000 UTCThe Saint's Magic Power is Omnipotent just announced a season 2
Ari
2022-03-17 09:30:40 +0000 UTCDragon maid, is definitely fantasy and technically an Isekai.
Aidan
2022-03-17 07:08:33 +0000 UTCI've been trying to get a good reactor to react to this for years... But I think the time will never come.

2022-03-17 03:58:50 +0000 UTCThat was the other one I was thinking of.

2022-03-17 03:56:35 +0000 UTCThis series could be interesting but is a video game mmo story truly isekai or fantasy?
Untolddead Writing Webnovels
2022-03-17 03:54:40 +0000 UTCIt is but hasn't it been reacted to a lot by others?

2022-03-17 03:52:08 +0000 UTCJuuni kokuki (12 kingdoms) Old school great isekai story! Drama, mystery, action, and psychological.

2022-03-17 03:49:20 +0000 UTC"spice and wolf" is a solid fantasy
devin782
2022-03-17 00:04:48 +0000 UTCYes. Drifters is dope.

2022-03-16 23:48:58 +0000 UTCI loved the art style of this and how they used historical figures.

2022-03-16 23:33:10 +0000 UTCSeen Tsukimichi and Spirit Chronicles. I like Tsukimichi much more.

2022-03-16 23:16:37 +0000 UTCA great Isekai is Dog Days it has 3 seasons
Brian Carotenuto
2022-03-16 23:15:08 +0000 UTCGot some oldie/classic ones in there, good stuff!
☆~Nyaa~☆
2022-03-16 23:13:47 +0000 UTCIsekai/Fantasy suggestions Familiar of Zero - Isekai Shakugan No Shana - Fantasy Tower of Druaga - Fantasy Maoyuu Maou Yuusha - Fantasy Scrapped Princess - Fantasy
Sovereign
2022-03-16 23:11:58 +0000 UTCHonestly, there was nothing that made it stand out for me.. I ended up dropping it half-way through, but I may also just have trash taste lol.
☆~Nyaa~☆
2022-03-16 23:11:19 +0000 UTCI agree with Kyokai no Kanata. Excellent anime. One warning though, there's an ova that's usually passed as episode 0 and it is indeed a prequel episode. REAAAALLY spoilery if you watch it first however.
Kari
2022-03-16 23:10:48 +0000 UTCTsuki ga michibiku's anime left me with mixed feelings. While I do agree the story is good, the execution and adaptation left a lot to be desired. Yes, novel reader here. Same thing with deathmarch. The novel was so-so, nothing out of the ordinary to be honest, but the anime lowered it to the isekai trash category. Dont get me wrong, I am a fan of deathmarch, I've read god knows how many chapters (because I don't remember). Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear is just the usual power fantasy. If you like the MC brute-forcing their way out of problems, this is for you. I enjoyed it, but it lacked punch. I don't want to comment on serei gensouki due to personal VERY biased opinions, so there's that. But it's not bad, I think it's the better of the four.
Kari
2022-03-16 23:05:06 +0000 UTCI've read the LN for Spirit Chronicles and Death March, both outstanding (especially Seirei), but have yet to watch the anime for them.
☆~Nyaa~☆
2022-03-16 23:03:27 +0000 UTCI'll second that. Its got a killer OST too (of course, Hiroyuki Sawano).
☆~Nyaa~☆
2022-03-16 23:02:38 +0000 UTCAlright, sadly I'd just recommend the same old stuff which is why I rarely do recommend more then once xD
Sovereign
2022-03-16 23:02:07 +0000 UTCits super funny but also super short so its like a 10min ep

2022-03-16 23:00:20 +0000 UTCThis one very good too!
ShroomPK
2022-03-16 23:00:11 +0000 UTCDrifters is super good
Saskatchatoon24
2022-03-16 22:59:33 +0000 UTCFor fantasy, Kyoukai no Kanata aka Beyond the Boundary is pretty good. Its also KyoAni. https://myanimelist.net/anime/18153/Kyoukai_no_Kanata
☆~Nyaa~☆
2022-03-16 22:58:46 +0000 UTCkinda underated at first but it definitely a good show
Buiphuc
2022-03-16 22:57:16 +0000 UTCSo few recommendations from myself Kuma, Kuma, Kuma Bear Seirei Gensouki Spirit Chronicles Tsukimichi - Moonlit Fantasy Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsody Kuma is scheduled for a second season at some point this year or next Spirit Chronicles just finished airing on Crunchyroll so no report of a second season yet, but the LN's are doing well Moonlit was a popular Anime, no idea about a second season, but wouldn't be surprised at some point Death March, is a few years old now, so a second season is unlikely, and not reacted to much, which is a surprise since the LN is often number 1 for best selling when released
Stephen
2022-03-16 22:56:30 +0000 UTCOOOHHHHH; I just remembered something! How about a reverse isekai? If so, then Re:Creators is what you need. I don't really want to say anything else about this anime to not spoil it, also, not in your MAL list. However, I can tell you you (and everyone in for the raid) is gonna love it.
Kari
2022-03-16 22:54:18 +0000 UTCSecond
☆~Nyaa~☆
2022-03-16 22:53:06 +0000 UTCAlways get this recommended. Will this be the time it finally wins???
JoeFreshest
2022-03-16 22:52:34 +0000 UTCI would agree with Isekai Quartet, however, take into consideration that each episode is 12 minutes long, which includes the opening and ending. So, like 8-9 minutes of actual episode.
Kari
2022-03-16 22:52:01 +0000 UTCSeen it and dropped it. It was just too slice of life for me. Might go back and finish it though.
JoeFreshest
2022-03-16 22:51:58 +0000 UTCStuff I haven’t seen that fall into the isekai/fantasy category. That’s the only condition. I recommend you do your recommendation in a separate comment though so others can see it and like it.
JoeFreshest
2022-03-16 22:50:50 +0000 UTCThis one I really want to see too!
JoeFreshest
2022-03-16 22:49:44 +0000 UTCOkay, I didnt see this one in your MAL list. Hai to Gensou no Grimgar or Grimgal of Ashes and Fantasies. A 2016 anime with a slightly different take on the isekai genre. No OP protagonist, in here we see the struggles of your run-of-the-mill adolescents trying to survive in a world they are not prepared to.
Kari
2022-03-16 22:48:56 +0000 UTCThis oneee!!!!
ShroomPK
2022-03-16 22:48:33 +0000 UTCI'm guessing it's only new stuff for this category right?

2022-03-16 22:45:07 +0000 UTCSlime Taoshite 300-nen is a chill one.
Jondely
2022-03-16 22:44:24 +0000 UTCIsekai Quartet should be a fun one for you and with the movie and series 3 forthcoming (along with overlord 4, konosuba 3 and probably re zero 3 ) very relevant for all your content.
HelenX
2022-03-16 22:41:37 +0000 UTCWelcome to Demon School Iruma-Kun, is such a underrated fantasy anime is also an isekai in a way and season 3 is later this year
