The Eminence in Shadow is second on 604 votes and Saga of Tanya the Evil third on 590. 20 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 Overlord and said a particular show was worth watching next, so a suggestion people disagreed with does not appear at all. Six of the 23 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 Overlord and nominated another series as the one to watch next. Nothing here is inferred from genres or tags: this page cannot tell you why That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime follows Overlord, only that 1,198 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.

6 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: That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime , The Eminence in Shadow , Saga of Tanya the Evil , Log Horizon , Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu , The Rising of the Shield Hero .
