If you're emotionally exhausted, overwhelmed by anxious thoughts, or just want to relax, these anime will help you unwind. Some of them can be viewed before bedtime. Some can be simple or silly, and that's the point. But all of them are calm, quiet, and unhurried.

This stack is dedicated to unusual characters who, for some reason, were forced to live like ordinary people and study nuances of normal life. Preference was given to anime that were as close as possible to modern everyday Japanese life, since most of the classic reverse isekai are pure action and there are so many of them that there are enough such anime for a separate stack (which I created too, lol).
