Isekai shows death report (Spring season 2023)

The Aristocrat's Otherworldly Adventure: Serving Gods Who Go Too Far

Gets stabbed to death in front of a convenience store whilst trying to save some young girls from a knife wielding delinquent (dang thoes kids are going to need years of expensive therapy for this) - 🔪💀 6.5/10 pretty strong death, but he dosnt even make it into the convivence store which must have been really disappointing. he missed out on his last earth capitalism pre death

• Immediately upon being reincarnated, this dweebs first conscious thought is an evangelion reference. they know the audience.
• ive been reading the manga of this (published as "Chronicles of an Aristocrat Reborn in Another World" by Seven Seas Entertainment). its very generic but enjoyable. This anime adaption is WAAAaaaAY better. This first episode knows its trash and it glorifies that trashy silliness- youll like it if your a genre pervert like me

In Another World with My Smartphone series 2

It was revealed in series 1 that god made a little mistake and accidentally dropped a lighting without checking if anyone was there first - 🌩️⚡😵 5/10 This confims that basically everyone ever killed by lightning gets magic powers in their next life. Good to know.

• This one is as generic a cheat-skills-zero-stakes-show as it gets in the first season, so like good for genre perverts who dont have brains and not really anyone else
• i rewatched the original 2017 series to remind myself of what the heck was going on with this show, and i can confirm you 2000% do not need to turn your brain on for this one AT ALL

I Got a Cheat Skill in Another World and Became Unrivaled in the Real World, Too

This is 100% a commuter isekai, theres a two way gate to another world and the protagonist can travel freely. You could say that any sense of self worth this dweeb had was totally murderkilled before getting cheat skills though - 🤷 0/10 the death of a guys ego dosnt score any points on my isekai rubric

• i like the manga version of this story a lot its real dumb and it knows it for sure. fingers crossed the show ends up okay
• but still, it dosnt matter how much i like it, the dude just dosnt die so its worth literally zero isekai points. sorry i dont make the rules here (well, i do... shut up)

KamiKatsu: Working for God in a Godless World

Drowned stuck in a barrel by his weird dad's naked cult - his final thoughts are "if gods are real, i hope they reincarnate me in a world without gods or religion", gets reborn in a world without gods or religion. Its very unique but uhhh real weird - 🌊☠️ 4/10

• Most unrealistic depiction of a barrel drowning ever... probably
• I dont even think this one is for genre perverts, i think its for actual honest to god capital P perverts.

My One-Hit Kill Sister: Starting Life in Another World With My Big Sister

Does the whole jumping Infront of a car to save a lil kid thing. oops - 👩‍👦🚚 8.5/10 vehicular manslaughter should always score high imo. The extra .5 is consolation points (as hes a little bit sad he wont get to play the new Armored Core game lol)

• midway though the episode we find out HES NOT ACTUALLY DEAD, merely in a coma
• How does his (one-hit) sister join him? She theorizes hes trapped in another world, and NOT in a coma so she uhhhhhh, repeatedly bashes her head against a wall to join him. 100% a bro-con anime.

Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke's Mansion

Pushed off a balcony after FINALLY getting her university acceptance letter, such joy followed by such terror, poor girl. Ends up in a Dukes Mansion (obviously) - 🌠📖 9/10 just perfectly executed.

• The source manga is really good (and full color!!) - highly recommended for villainess genre fans, and its available in english from Yen Press.
• I had real high hopes for the series, and judging off this first episode ITS GOING TO BE REALLLLL GOOD!

Summoned to Another World for a Second Time

Protag-kun (and his entire school class) get summoned (for a second time, i guess) to Another World. - ❌ 0/10 non fatal no score.

Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear (season 2)

As a daily sign in bonus for playing WAY TO MUCH of a fantasy VRMMO god, who i guess is a game developer in this world teleports our protagonist into a fantasy world. Oh, and shes stuck in a bear Kigurumi. obviously. - 🐻 1/10 if a no death commuter isekai setting scores a zero, this one way summon into a videogame world, stuck for ever must be at least a 1 as its one way. You aren't ever going home kuma-oneesan.

• this show is kinda super really cute. there is NO heterosexual explanation for the last episode of the first season either.

BONUS

Reverse Isekai

Dead Mount Death Play

Some paladin dude in dies(?) fighting a BIG FUCK OFF NECROMANCER SKELETON BOSS, gets reverse isekai'ed into modern day Shinjuku, Tokyo. - ☠️🗼🏢 10/10 I LOVE IT WHEN PEOPLE FROM THE MAGIC WORLD GET ISEKAIED INTO TOKYO THATS THE BEST GENRE

• Even though its very shonen, this show seems like its going ot be a lot of dumb fun. The kind of thing i probably wouldn't watch, except its isekai adjacent and that makes me interested

Otaku Elf

Elda is an elf that was summoned into the human world 400 years ago and enshrined as a goddess into a Shinto shrine. Likes RPGs and Manga - 100/10 Shes perfect i would die for her (read: get her red bull cans when she asks for them)

• this show? very good

DOUBLE BONUS

Just reincarnation with no other worldly bullshit going on

[Oshi No Ko]

A doctor gets murder killed whilst looking after a young idol who is secretly pregnant, gets reborn as her child- 🏥🧑‍⚕️💀10/10

• oh i didnt know until JUST NOW that this was written by the same mangaka as Kaguya-sama, i loved what ive read of the Oshi no Ko manga so far, finding this out is probably the thing thats going ot make me finally check out that other show lol

I BELIEVE THIS LIST IS COMPREHENSIVE. YOU ARE WELCOME.
