ISEKAI
The Best Anime Genre
Isekai (another world) is a term commonly used to describe Japanese stories, such as anime, manga, light novels, or web novels, in which the main character is transported to a different world through reincarnation, summoning, or being transmigrated by a God. The setting of these stories is typically, but not exclusively, a medieval fantasy world with swords and magic.
The Isekai genre can be split into two sub-genres: "transition
into another world" (異世界転移, isekai ten'i) and "reincarnation into another
world" (異世界転生, isekai tensei). In "transition into another world" stories,
the main character is transported to a different world through various means
such as traveling or summoning. On the other hand, "reincarnation into another
world" narratives involve the protagonist being reincarnated in a different world
after dying in the real world. A common method of death used in these stories is
being hit by a truck, which has led to the popularization of the
"Truck-kun" meme,
referring to a truck that appears in multiple "isekai" series and kills the protagonist,
leading to their reincarnation in a different world.
Here is a list to the greatest Isekai animes of all time.
