Shangrila Frontier.

The MC's role is opposite to Maple. A glass cannon.

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 2 points3 points  (3 children)

I should include that in my list. But it's definitely good! I probably should rewatch. Thank you! ☺️

[–]The_battlePotato 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Not sure if you know but S2 of Shangri-La is airing right now.

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Thanks for letting me know! Will definitely binge once it's completed!

I'm reading the manga, wich is insane too.

[–]azerty_04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He/she already watched, but good idea, this is my favorite one.

[–]RomieTheEeveeChaser 17 points18 points  (3 children)

Gun Gale Online!

Similar to Kaede, LLENN is a girl who hasn‘t played vr games before so she also has her own weird funny play styles and being OP in her game.

It‘s a SAO spin off but it‘s adjacent so you don‘t have to watch SAO at all to understand the story. The second season also just started airing~ (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Ayyyy! Now that's one I can dive into! Thank you so much ( ´∀`)/~~

[–]Pink_Slyvie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

GGO Alternative to be specific. If you watch the SAO GGO arc, you are gonna be confused AF.

[–]Romax24245 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as stakes go, Gun Gale Online is somewhere in between Bofuri and the original SAO, in that it has real life consequences for a couple players if the MC fails her objective (albeit self-imposed by said players), but at the same time acknowledges that it's just a harmless game at the end of the day.

„I’ve Been Killing Slimes For 300 Years And Maxed Out My Level“ has a similar lighthearted feel. Season 2 is announced for spring next year.

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That one is getting a second season?? Hell yeah! I've seen that one a couple of years ago. I didn't think it will have a sequel. Thank you for letting me know!

[–]edziesm 7 points8 points  (4 children)

I was rec Bofuri after watching Shangri La Frontier, so maybe that. Also Log Horizon is also a game type anime.

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 2 points3 points  (3 children)

I'll have to restart Log Horizon since I forgot about it long ago. Thank you for the recos!

[–]edziesm 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I’ve started it, it isn’t as cute and bouncy like Bofuri, it’s more serious. It says you watched most isekai: By the grace of the gods is isekai with cute and slimes.

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, probably why I took a break on it. Thought it's a bit slow somewhat. But that's so long ago and don't wanna miss out on the good quality!

I've also seen that one and really like it! Most slime anime are just cute hehe

[–]KE5TR4L 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Log horizon is great but if cliffhangers bother you maybe avoid it, its unfinished and going to stay that way

[–]Ok_Art_1342 4 points5 points  (5 children)

Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 2 points3 points  (2 children)

This is the anime with the slime named Sui, right? Will definitely rewatch this. Thank you!

[–]Ok_Art_1342 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Yeah. Farming life in another world. Just remembered this one

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listing this down, thank you for the reco!

[–]argama87 0 points1 point  (1 child)

That was another fun one, and I believe a 2nd season of that is coming.

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg, I can't wait! I so love Sui ♥️

[–]starlordslit 3 points4 points  (2 children)

Skeleton knight in another world is awesome and its similar to both overlord and bofuri in that it's a gamer transported to a game world

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

That's a good combo! Thank you, definitely listing this down!

[–]starlordslit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad I could help

[–]shant_beHere 3 points4 points  (1 child)

If you like Isekai try 'Reincarnated as a sword'

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen this one! I'll watch it again for sure, thank you!

[–]TnAdct1Syrup 2 points3 points  (2 children)

In terms of stuff that I've been watching in the past years, these are the isekai/fantasy that I've seen (that haven't been mentioned yet):

  • Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Main (reverse isekai)
  • In the Land of Leadale
  • Konosuba
  • Tearmoon Empire
  • Fluffy Paradise (can get dark at times, but still is cute)
  • A Journey Through Another World: Raising Kids While Adventuring

[–]Not_a_Squirrel-Maple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im gonna second In the Land of Leadale and A Journey Through Another World: Raising Kids While Adventuring

[–]Ray_BIue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m gonna second Fluffy Paradise, it’s a very cute anime! Also Leadale is great too!!

[–]Elegant-Lock8537 2 points3 points  (1 child)

It's slightly darker but The World's Finest Assassin Gets Reincarnated in Another World as an Aristocrat

❤️ 💙 💜 💖 💗

[–]Ray_BIue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this anime!

[–]Tsktsktsktsktsktsk2 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Infinite dendrogram

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never heard of this one. Will check it out, thank you!

[–]KingOfThePenguinsKasumi 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Princess Connect (Priconne) and BOFURI are cut much from the same cloth, in terms of light hearted fantasy type shenanigans. Priconne does have some narrative tension, but it's not super intense. Also, it's very likely a finished product, with a clear resolution and ending point, if that matters.

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen the title a couple times (mostly from Kyaru fans), but I don't know why I never checked it out. Thank you from bringing it up!!

[–]sephy009 1 point2 points  (2 children)

You might like I'm a spider so what. It's funny but I will say some of the vibes are different especially mid season and later.

[–]shingle1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a good anime but you to read the light novel to understand what's going on

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen this one as well! Definitely love it and can't wait for a new season (if any).

[–]raetaylorfanGL 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I literally love you so much, thanks.

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

W-What did I do???

[–]argama87 1 point2 points  (2 children)

It has no business being as good as it actually is, but another fun series is Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon. It sounds ridiculous, is a bit ridiculous, but somehow it works.

[–]ElvenVampiraMii [S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

That's definitely one hell of a title! Will definitely check it out, thank you! 😆

[–]hydronas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with this recommendation, we gave it shot expecting to be turning it off pretty quick. Binged the whole show and wanted more!

[–]LunarBlade_Sally 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I haven’t seen it myself, I’ve heard quite a few good things about Land of Leadale. It might be worth checking out.

[–]Coopa_T 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started and binge watched Farming Life in Another World. It was a nice anime and pretty chill. Less video game and rpg stuff, and more building and making things. Kind of like Reincarnated as a Slime but on a more smaller scale

[–]Flarz_Tiddies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You watched Reincarnated as a Sword. So I'd recommend Skelton Knight in Another World.

Arc(the mc) is one of my favorite characters for the whole isekai genre.

Sadly, the anime only has 1 season currently, but it is in En and Jp.

[–]Rude-Purple6597 0 points1 point  (2 children)

TsukiMichi: Moonlight Fantasy is a pretty good time. It's more like Tensura (Reincarnated as a Slime) than BOFURI, but sadly there aren't too many shows like BOFURI.

Complete aside, but the creator of Shield Hero has a great light novel about the origin story of Kizuna, a Shield Hero side character, called "Dimension Wave". Highly recommend. It doesn't even start with false r*pe accusations! Like wow! (Sarcasm aside, is fun story, but only has one volume, at present, that I know of.)

[–]Rude-Purple6597 0 points1 point  (1 child)

By the Grace of the Gods is [not] a great watch, but it has fun moments. Ye mentioned most isekai with slimes, so ye may have already seen it. I found it to be a much better read, both in manga and light novel, than to watch. Breaks my heart that so many fun and good isekai are handed off to subpar, or start-up studios, that turn out just the most unfortunate adaptations, but that's a story for another day. 😏

[–]shadowbane75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually really love "by the grace of the gods" easily one of my favorite anime, it's not an action packed show its an isekai slice of life that just makes me feel good, highly recommend giving it a chance! On the same kind of note but with a bit more action is "kuma kuma kuma bear" very silly shows that aren't meant to be filled with action but really focus on the life the main characters get to live in another world

[–]NortWind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You definitely should watch "Chillin' in another world with Level 2 super cheat powers."

[–]azerty_04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah, Shangri-La Frontier is the best manga/anime ever !

[–]kittiphile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't hurt me my healer

The vampire dies in no time

My unique skill makes me overpowered...(surprisingly wholesome)

I've been killing slimes for 300 years

So I'm a spider

The wrong way to use healing magic

[–]WatermelonKemi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if anyone else already commented but “I May Be a Guild Receptionist, but I’ll Solo Any Boss to Clock Out on Time” it’s got the strong female lead like Bofuri, fantasy setting with monster fighting, and a main ship that reminds me a bit of ouran host club.

Edit: This one’s newer but Bogus Skill Fruit Master has been great. Very similar vibes. Fantasy world + MC that keeps getting new crazy skills.

[–]Alive-Foundation1673 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rising Of The Shield Hero, Delicious In Dungeon, Konosuba, I May Be A Guild Receptionist, But I’ll Solo Any Boss Just To Clock Out On Time, I Left My A-Rank Party To Help My Former Students Reach The Dungeon Depths!
