When we refer to the isekai genre, we’re all transported to a completely different world metaphorically speaking.
The theme that is most frequently found in the stories in this category is where the main character is transported to another world in order to save the world or else the concept goes down a different path, resulting in an alternate plot. Because Otaku’s love it, this genre has been very popular in their circles.
Today, let’s talk about the best isekai manga you should read.
