uhh... spirited away?
mushoku is up there if we are talking about the modern kind of isekai
I never thought of Spirited Away that way but now that you mention it, it does resemble isekai.
Mushoku is probably the best by such a large margin i couldn't think anyone answering different was serious. Log horizon is probably the only isekai that's done the modern game junk well.
Being a parody, it subverts most tropes of isekai anime. Its humor is exactly my type too.
Honorable mentions:
Most other isekai anime have the same cookie-cutter plot, making them so predictable and boring. Or they have an interesting premise, but waste it with poor writing and dumb characters.
Re:Zero, Konosuba, Overworld, and That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime are some of the best, alongside SAO which started the modern version of the genre.
My favorite isekai is Farscape.
But if it has to be anime: Inuyasha.
So many isekais have great starts, but fall off execution in the second season. Maybe they run out of ideas, or just had a good concept, but then lacked creativity to keep the plot interesting... So there are a lot of S1's
Sword Art Online Season 1
Log Horizon Season 1
Level 99 Villainess
Shangri-La Frontier
Rising Of The Shield Hero Season 1
Overlord
Konosuba Since it's a parody.
I don't like isekai.
I liked Grimgar a lot.
It has unique visuals, but what really sets it apart is the great - what do I even call it - significance through realism? It has a lot of depth and is very different. It has my definite recommendation too.
I'll let you guess from my instance 😁
Ascendance of a Bookworm. A really good one!
Reincarnated as a vending machine, I now wander the dungeon is my latest favorite. It's funny and a cute show.

I'm Standing on a Million Lives - My First and Favourite
I really liked Uncle from another world too, but I wouldn't list it to that question. I guess because it's more of a comedy than with a spanning story and depth or development.
Scrolling through the comments to remember some of them,
- Mushoku Tensei - great - the first two seasons have exceptional world building, story telling, contrasting, and developments; not everything is great, but a lot is; for me, last two seasons fell off a bit
- Grimgar - very good - very unique, great world and characters and relationship between them
- Ascendance of a Bookworm - very good
- The Eminence in Shadow - very good - exceptional satire
- The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady - very good until the ending, with exceptional visuals and vibrancy
- Life with an Ordinary Guy Who Reincarnated into a Total Fantasy Knockout - very good - great comedy with a gender bend/swap
/edit: Found two more from my list of good/decent non-harem isekais I replied to some no longer existing lemmy post.
Unrelated to isekai, but I saw from your site that you migrated from Wordpress to Hugo. What method did you use to do that? I have an old wordpress site that I keep running for somebody, but it isn't actively updated anymore. If I could convert that to static html and host it using something like github pages, that would be awesome. I looked into it once before, but there were a bunch of different plugins and methods, so the inertia of not doing it won out.
too much detail; leading up to the findings that follow
Looking at the git lot, it looks like it was in 2018. I don't remember, and it's not documented that thoroughly in the commit messages log. Looks like I had content pages in Joomla, and the blog in Wordpress.
I may have exported the content via a plugin, or separate tool that reads from the database, did exported from the DB myself. I certainly did some mass-fixups via text search and replace. (I can recommend VS Code for that.)
Unfortunately, I had other projects that I migrated, so I can't remember which one I did what. :)
Now that I know the date, this is the migration blog post
I used content exporters to export the Joomla pages and Wordpress pages and blog posts into markdown content files for hugo.
Unfortunately, it's not more specific than "content exporter into markdown". But who knows if those specific ones would still be available today. :)
So I would suggest to use any Markdown exporter that's available now.
Thanks for the info! I am just going to have to test some things and see how it goes. My wordpress site has quite a number of image galleries, so I'll probably have to do some experimenting to see how those work.
I kept the images under the urls as they were. They're probably still under wp_content :D That way it's not too hard to migrate.
I don't think I implemented anything for image galleries though.
At risk of showing my age, The Twelve Kingdoms blows most modern isekai out of the water, even with its flaws. The MC‘s journey and character growth is amazing, and the world building is incredibly unique.
