18 suggestions, most-recommended first

Anime like Mushoku Tensei

827 people recommend Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu to anyone who liked Mushoku Tensei — more than any other title. That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime is second on 645 votes and The Rising of the Shield Hero third on 425. 15 more suggestions cleared the threshold, and all of them are listed below, strongest first. These are votes rather than an algorithm: each number counts AniList members who watched Mushoku Tensei and said a particular show was worth watching next, so a suggestion people disagreed with does not appear at all. Eight of the 18 have a watch order on this site; the rest are named so you can find them.

Where these come from

Every number above is a tally of AniList members who finished Mushoku Tensei and nominated another series as the one to watch next. Nothing here is inferred from genres or tags: this page cannot tell you why Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu follows Mushoku Tensei, only that 827 people think it does. Suggestions the community voted down are excluded, and where several seasons of one franchise were nominated they are counted once, under the franchise.

8 of them have a watch order here , so if one appeals you can see every series, film and OVA in it laid out in order before you start: Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu , That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime , The Rising of the Shield Hero , Frieren: Beyond Journey's End , The Eminence in Shadow , Konosuba , Made in Abyss , Overlord .

Keep going
