Fantasy Bishoujo Juniku Ojisan to

shows with main characters that are aromantic or aromantic-coded! (keep in mind that aromanticism is a spectrum that includes the romance-repulsed and those that experience absolutely no attraction, but is not limited to that)

Surprisingly good series from an oversaturated genre. For people who are interested in isekai but are tired of generic, cliché, trope-filled stories.

(one entry per franchise)

Entries meet 4 or more of these criteria:
1. Atypical protagonist(s) (either in background, personality, or dynamics)
2. Unique magic / power system (aka no "He's casting without incantations?!?!")
3. Unique in-setting religion (aka no "Hello protagonist, I am the Goddess™ of this world")
4. No JRPG / video game mechanics (aka inventory, stats screen, skill list, etc.)
5. Major plot elements do not revolve around an adventurers' guild (generic place that gives quests)
6. No demon king / demon lord / demon army
7. Minimal to no fanservice / nudity
8. Not in the harem / reverse harem subgenres (as in revolving around the main character's many love interests) (series marked with an 8* are ones that are tagged as Harem by MAL but don't really fit this definition)
9. Protagonist has healthy friendships with both male and female characters (as equals rather than subordinates or simple love interests)
10. Has a reason to be an isekai
11. Consistently funny comedy

Bromance, Male friendship, Rivalry, Ambiguous ambiance, Fujo-bait you know where it lead. There is a ton of series non shounen-ai/BL tagged that contains "I SHIP THEM" or "SHIP HAS SAILED" moments.
(male) Characters have strong emotional bond that fujoshi particularly enjoy.
Trying to avoid the already Boys Love tagged entries since everyone can find them.

Just some isekai to waste your time with sometimes. I mean, seriously, who doesn’t watch isekai to be disappointed sometimes with the overused trope of "Trashy/Normal MC > Reincarnates Into OP MC > Beats Up All Enemies." However, despite what I've said, there are some decent isekai you could check out.

Here you will find isekais that break the cliche that they always have, completely changing the isekai world in addition to being entertaining and to pass the time

From Shoujo to Shounen, these are some pretty good isekai that I’ve gathered and enjoyed. There are some older pieces on here and some pretty niche things on here as well so I hope you guys can find something that you haven’t seen before. I have some anime that I’m anticipating as well so make sure to add them to your to watch list!

A gender-oriented story which revolves around the lead protagonist tends to transform into their opposite gender by some supernatural phenomena or simply cross-dressing.

One of the least explored but widely used as a comical sequence in many popular shows.

This is a curated list of anime related to MMORPG, Dating sims and not just limited to isekai. although is mostly comprised of isekai I have included some others stories that are very related to dating sims that dont have any stereotypical trope of dying or being summoned just a slice of life plain everyday going into school and meeting new people and doing day to day errands.

this list of anime of protagonist that has woke up in a game... MMORPG and some others

this stories that doesnt seems plausible does needs to some mental gymnastics to write about them is a long topic that will play my mind as i have to unravel the logics of the isekai with ai and the simulated parallel world that also will miss the reincarnation thing. so Ive see that these stories are heavily criticized but if we think deeper to craft these types of stories does take a while.

during free time do try to think about them.

this list expand on the first stack of fav isekai picks...
for the selection on this list on anime that shares many commonalities...
most of the selection is the mc joining a fantasy game world setting...
Most on the list the Mc have a game interface...
some are repeated on the first list but is because is to wrap the ones that shares others similar traits ... this list narrow in certain type of vibe in isekai

game stats level grinding


because the concept presented by these types of anime that makes a lot of philosophical question makes it for an try to cover most of the topics but they are really interesting to me of how these digital worlds question are asked.

theres a lot of cosmo vision around this and why is important as you guys know that humanity likes to play god and we humans might be living a simulation.

for now the highlight for the list is

Isekai Meikyuu de Harem wo
Harem in the Labyrinth of Another World

if you like this one check on the others

If you are into protagonists who are very strong from the very beginning instead of a "From Zero to Hero" Anime then these anime are for you.

All these anime's include very shippable characters who mostly have no other person in the anime you could possibly ship them with. This is a marketing ploy because this makes anime/ships very popular as well as being apart of the lgbtqia+ community is not openly embraced by any Asian media. A lot of these anime's has novels, manga chps, side manga, official art, and drama cds that are very suggestive or downright very gay. They have all have very suggestive scenes in the animes as well including op, ed, end credits that are very fruity.

disclaimer: Includes anime with non-canon couples, non canon lgbt but all animes are gay coded in a way that queer people recognize. Also most have anime with canon lgbtqia+ characters

This is a tentative list of anime that had me blowing air out of my nose to guffawing.

I have excluded sequels, movies, and specials.

Watch at your discretion.

Note: A friendly reminder that comedy is different for each person and does not mean that one person’s sense of humor is better or worse than another person’s. So, enjoy what makes you laugh and move on to the next show if the current one does nothing for you.

Almost every single isekai and reverse isekai anime is there in this list (made in Fall 2022 and there is a part 2)

Isekai (and videogame) anime with a female main character.
