Introduction

Reincarnation anime, popularly known as isekai, has become a real craze in recent years. The genre offers fans the opportunity to explore new and intriguing worlds, usually accompanied by a dash of fantasy, magic and, of course, a good dose of humor.

In these anime, the protagonists die in their original lives and are reincarnated in a new universe, often with special abilities or powers. Today, we will explore some of the best reincarnation series that promise to take you to completely new and exciting worlds!

Selection Criteria

For this list, we focused on well-rated and popular anime within the reincarnation genre. We used ratings from sites like MyAnimeList and IMDb to bring you the titles most appreciated by critics and fans.

In addition, we highlight what each series brings that is special to the genre and how they manage to differentiate themselves from each other.

Konosuba

Synopsis: Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo!, or simply Konosuba, follows Kazuma Satou, who after a hilarious and unheroic death, is sent to a fantasy world with the mission of defeating the Demon King. Instead of choosing a weapon or special power, he decides to take the goddess Aqua with him, who ends up being more of a burden than a help.

Konosuba stands out for its unique humor and the way it makes fun of the clichés of the genre in which it finds itself. Its clumsy characters and absurd situations bring a lot of laughs.

Oshi no Ko

Synopsis: In Oshi no Ko, reincarnation is used in a completely different way. After being murdered, a doctor reincarnates as the son of the idol he is obsessed with. He and his sister, also reincarnated, enter the world of entertainment, surrounded by dark secrets and unexpected twists.

Unlike most isekai, Oshi no Ko mixes drama, mystery and a critique of the idol industry, being a surprisingly deep and captivating work.

PS: We know that Oshi no Ko is not an Isekai.

Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation

Synopsis: Mushoku Tensei is considered one of the pillars of the isekai genre, and rightly so. The story follows Rudeus Greyrat, who after a failed and meaningless life, is reincarnated as a baby in a fantasy world. Armed with the knowledge of his past life, he vows to do things differently this time.

Mushoku Tensei is famous for its incredibly well-built world, deep characters, and an engaging narrative that distances itself from the genre's clichés. Despite its… controversies… the anime remains one of the best in the genre.

Tensei Shitara Ken Deshita

Synopsis: In Tensei Shitara Ken Deshita (Reincarnated as a Sword), the protagonist is reincarnated, as the title suggests, as a sword in a fantasy world. He is found by a cat girl named Fran, who uses him to fight for revenge against those who oppressed her.

The series takes a different approach to the genre by reimagining the relationship between weapon and user, offering many exciting action scenes.

Isekai Shikkaku

Synopsis: Isekai Shikkaku mixes elements of reincarnation with a dash of tragedy and introspection. The protagonist, who leads a life full of despair and loneliness in his original incarnation, is reborn in a fantasy world. However, unlike many isekai heroes, he is not in search of glory or power, but redemption and acceptance. The series has a darker and deeper tone than most, exploring themes such as depression and the meaning of life.

The Eminence in Shadow

Synopsis: This isekai follows a young man obsessed with being the "villain in the shadows." After being run over, he is reincarnated in a fantasy world and decides to make his dream come true, creating a secret organization to fight against a conspiracy that he himself invented. However, he discovers that this conspiracy is much more real than he imagined.

The Eminence in Shadow is an anime full of action, mystery and twists that goes beyond the typical hero's journey in a fantasy world.

The Misfit of Demon King Academy

Synopsis: In The Misfit of Demon King Academy, Anos Voldigoad, the Demon King, reincarnates after 2000 years and decides to reclaim his throne. However, upon returning, he discovers that the world has changed and that his lineage has been forgotten. Anos is immensely powerful, but he must navigate a world where his existence is discredited.

With epic battles and moments of pure ostentation of power, the series is a full plate for those who love to see unbeatable protagonists.

Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken (That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime)

Synopsis: Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken follows Satoru Mikami, an ordinary man who is killed in a mugging and reincarnated as a slime in a fantasy world. Despite initially being a weak creature, Satoru, now called Rimuru Tempest, quickly accumulates powers and allies, shaping a new destiny for himself.

With plenty of comedy, adventure, and a charismatic protagonist, this anime is one of the favorites of the isekai genre.

Okashi no Tensei

Synopsis: Okashi no Tensei brings a light and charming approach to the reincarnation genre, with a special focus on confectionery. After being reincarnated in a fantasy world, the protagonist uses her skills to create incredible sweets and explore the magical world around her.

With colorful animation and charismatic characters, the series mixes fantasy with cooking, resulting in a plot full of sweet and creative moments.

Reflection before the end

Although all of the anime on this list have reincarnation as their main theme, each one offers a unique approach (maybe not all...). Some focus on more aspects of power struggles and development, while others explore deeper themes, such as the second chance to live differently or the rotten things in the world.

This selection of anime shows the versatility of the reincarnation genre, which somehow manages to please most fans - whether you are a lover of comedy, action or drama.

Conclusion

These reincarnation anime are some of the best within the isekai genre (and outside of it) and offer a variety of styles and approaches. From light comedies like Konosuba to complex stories like Oshi no Ko, there's something for everyone. If you like seeing characters get a second chance in fantasy worlds, these titles should definitely be at the top of your list!
