10. Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari

Tells about Naofumi Iwatani, an otaku who called into a fantasy world as a Shield Hero. Along with Sword Hero, Bow Hero, and Spear Hero, they are tasked to defend monster attacks every few months.

9. Overlord

"An isekai anime should be like this," that’s the word to describe Overlord! This anime successfully combines two distinct aspects, comedy and gloom, because aside from the funny Ainz Ooal Gown’s inner conflicts, he can also act as a ruthless demon king for his enemies.

8. Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo!

Shorten as KonoSuba, and this tile becomes an icon for comedy isekai anime. You can find general isekal concepts like video game menu and fantasy world -- but it’s only a little problem because KonoSuba can make you laugh every minute.

7. Re: Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu

If you are asking otakus out there whether if they know about Re: Zero, surely they will say “I do or “I know.” Re: Zero becomes the second popular anime after SAO because of its unique storyline.

The main character, Subaru, suddenly lands on a strange world. Right after he arrives at the cruel world, he killed by someone. But it turns out that his power awakens -- he can load his life back from a specific occasion. Like on a video game that can save and load after your character dies.

3. Gate: Jieitai Kanochi nite, Kaku Tatakaeri

If you like military-theme, then you can watch this anime. The beginning of Gate begins when a mysterious gate mysteriously appears in Tokyo, Japan.

The story aspect comes in two sides; the light side that tells about the life of a bachelor, and the heavy side tells about military, politics, economy, society, and culture.

2. Sword Art Online

Who doesn’t know SAO? Yes, Sword Art Online is a valid example of isekai anime, as well as the pioneer of this genre! The MMORPG full-dive virtual world itself feels like close to realization as the virtual reality technology keeps growing.
