These titles are about two powerful protagonists who stayed for the last few hours before the "END GAME" of the RPG they are involved in, but a twist of fate led them to still remain inside the game. They are now stuck inside the game which is now their new reality, as the one PLAYER with no functioning log-out button.

When the MC open his eyes and see that the first thing he sees are the NPC from the online game he played are fully alive. A Isekai story that are transported into their VRMMO game character but they are not in the game world but into a different world with similar traits of the game. Both MC are Dark Character (evil looking/dark aura) they may be nice but they might kill for something good and improved on some stuff for the better

Very overpowered Isekai protagonists with a very loose sense of morality get transported to a fantasy world. They both are looking for a way back home, but set out to conquer the world to cure their own boredom in the meantime. Both have no qualms killing humans and do whatever it takes to further their own power without hurting those they actually care about. Wortenia Senki is low fantasy, much more emphasis on swords, political infighting, and commanding armies to fight each other. The MC is overpowered due to his extensive knowledge of martial arts, traditional military tactics and pre-modern weaponry. Overlord is a high fantasy mmorpg  read more

Very similar in the fact that the Hero sets out to make the world a better place, going on adventures planning for the improvement of the human race. Ecchi scenes, but very much about a hero who sets out to defeat/kill the demon lord, but ends up with some unexpected results in the end.

Both mangas/manhwas have a game based system, in overlord, the protagonist is transported to a game while Solo Leveling has a game system in real life. Overlord's main character is an ''undead god'' which makes him summon undead, something similar to the Solo Leveling MC's shadow ability even though Overlord uses more other more OP skills than Solo Leveling. Although Overlord has quite a calm storyline with not so many fights, when the time comes, it can be considered good but lacks excitement compared to Solo Leveling.

Everyone expects the main character to be smarter than they are, with overarching plans, and the main character just kinda goes along with it.

You got an OP MC who in the case of this manga used to rule over the world. Both got isekayed to an MMO and search for their old companions while being entangled in the plots and the world itself. Both have to struggle with some mental conditions after being isekayed. While Overlord edges somewhere between lawful evil and neutral evil, this manga is closer to the true neutral side, meaning that MC is not that cold-blooded and malevolent in his goals. Still, quite surprisingly it gives off a lot of similar vibes. The setup and the world are much closer to the standard isekai, but  read more

"Overlord" and "Dusk Howler" are adaptations of the LitRPG novels of the same name about the adventures of a dark guild that consists of monsters, however, Momonga, the male protagonist in "Overlord", is the head of the guild, while Jaiha, the male protagonist in "Dusk Howler", is a student of the head of the guild. "Overlord" is an isekai story where Momonga is a simple salaryman who turned into his overpowered character in his favorite virtual game, while "Dusk Howler" is a Sci-Fi story where Jaiha is an unemployed 21-year-old man who started playing a virtual game in order to overcome his social phobia,  read more

If you like Updater then you'll definitely like Overlord. Overlord has strong characters which is much like Updater. In terms of technical aspect, some of it is the same and some of it is different. Overlord was a thrilling story, much like Updater, and it'll leave you eager for what's coming next.

Ains and Kunai shares the same storyline. Suddenly Isekaid after the finishing of a game. Most powerful MC who is consider to be EVIL but is soft hearted. They both are funny as they act strong but helpless in their mind and everyone thinks them to be too smart. You will get same vibes if you compare them side by side.

Death march is about a MC who supposedly dies and is sent to another world with 3 cheat items which he uses right off the bat and becomes a super OP character like Momonga is in Overlord they both share comedy and adventure and I think he Harem aspect too.

Both have super OP main characters and both are set on different worlds, they both favour action and just plain awesomeness over romance and other hindrances (a great read if you want a break from reality)

Your first instinct seeing this is why are you recommending these 2 well… - These two MC are very powerful, a god tier if you will - Both are transported into a fantasy world - Powerful Allies Just one of the MC is more of an anti-hero

Both male MCs get transported inside the game they played, and know almost everything about it. Also, both of them are pretty strong. Game becomes reality. RPG world with stats etc.

These stories are almost exactly the same in terms of plot, where a very powerful kingdom of a game is transferred into another world with the main character (the leader) being transported while playing the game.

MC is OP, and the charm of the series mainly comes from the consequences of MCs' actions and from others' reactions. 
reportRecommended by Sicnarf24
While Dead Mount has a skeletal fantasy world antagonist type tossed into the real world, Overlord has a real world character placed into a fantasy setting as a bony antagonist. The series remind me of each other how despite the vastly different settings because the leads do brutal things with their abilities while also accomplishing much good.

similar as they both get sent to a different world. In Overlord its a game in Dungeon Seeker its a entirely different world. In Overlord its a mix of Harem, Comedy, OP MC, and a adventure fun while for the MC in Dungeon Seeker its Vengence, Betrayal, OP MC, and adventure that you watch to see just how far the MC is willing to go because of all the bad that happens. A huge thing that they both share is potential and a anime

Both have a world of their own, asora and great tomb of nazarik. Both are isekai ln where mc is not much hesitant on killing for their subordinates.

Both protagonists are leaders of a nation, and they both move in a way that are heavily misunderstood (in a good way) by their servants and allies. The perceptions of them by their servants are exaggerated as if they are 10 steps ahead of everyone else.

It's baffling that Overlord wasn't recommended here, perhaps because there's a large amount of spin-offs for sword art, nevertheless i will fill the void here. Overlord is about a person that lives on inside a world that started out as a game, but became something more, if you enjoyed sword art, you will definitely love Overlord.

I can't believe nobody suggested this one yet. At the moment, next to SOA, Overlord is what everyone compares game manga/anime to. Although the only similarity between the two mangas is the setting as well as the presence of gore, Overlord is a must read. Check out the overlord anime as well.

Both Mcs are loner humans that get trapped in a fantasy world in an inhuman/monstrous body. And With their overpowered abilities they start their conquest of said Fantasy world.
