There is no escaping the pull of isekai anime. The genre has been going strong for close to a decade by this point, producing half a dozen entries at a minimum per season. The current year is not an exception, and plenty of new 2025 isekai anime have added their names to history. As Fall airs its lineup of shows, the year’s selection should be complete.
With the concept being so popular, keeping track of every release can be difficult, especially since there are occasionally a few stealth stories that might not scream “isekai” at a glance. To simplify the process of following all the latest isekai anime, let’s go through the series coming out in 2025.
Updated on October 29, 2025, by Mark Sammut: The Fall 2025 season is well underway by this point, and the lineup has quite a few isekai anime. Good ones, too.
At this point, the 2025 isekai anime lineup should be complete.
Winter 2025
Headhunted to Another World: From Salaryman to Big Four!
Plenty of 2025 isekai anime will feature OP protagonists capable of brute-forcing their way through any and every encounter, so it is always refreshing when an MC comes along that relies on brain rather than brawn. A competent office worker who feels underappreciated, Uchimura is suddenly summoned to another world by a demonic ruler, who comes with quite an unusual offer: Join the crew as one of the Heavenly Kings. So, Uchimura starts a new career path that tasks him with tackling challenges using his expertise in discourse and sales.
Headhunted to Another World: From Salaryman to Big Four! is decent, with Uchimura having to negotiate a few alliances with the demon army’s neighbors. Admittedly, the anime is not anything more than decent, but that is not the worst thing either.
Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time
Sometimes, a title can be enough to sell a concept; however, the opposite can also be true. Someday Will I Be the Greatest Alchemist, aka Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time, is a bit uninspired. Takumi is accidentally summoned to a new world along with a group of heroes.
As an apology, he is allowed to pick any skill, and he opts for “Creation.” Essentially, this turns him into an alchemist capable of creating anything with few restrictions, instantly making him overpowered. The “possibly” aspect might just be a humblebrag.
Promise of Wizard
An adaptation of a Japan-only video game, Promise of Wizard has two manga under its belt, so the story has some mileage. A woman is chosen as a sage and summoned to another world by a group of wizards, all in the hopes of fighting off a threat known as The Great Calamity.
Promise of Wizard did not receive too much attention compared to other Winter 2025 isekai anime. However, it is a mostly OK show that has a reverse harem element, despite not really having much romance.
Zenshu
Due to telling an original story, Zenshu was somewhat of a mystery before its debut, so the anime’s isekai direction came as a bit of a surprise. A genius animator and director who enjoyed immediate success with her first series, Natsuko has the entertainment world at her feet; however, while working on her second production, she found herself struggling with writer’s block. With the empty page in front of her and pressure mounting, the protagonist is starting to feel the weight of expectations that follow critical and commercial praise.
Randomly, Natsuko chokes on a piece of food and passes out, reawakening in the world of an anime she watched as a kid. Despite not being well-received by the public, the movie struck a chord with Natsuko, who found its dark story and nihilistic themes fascinating. Now, gifted the opportunity to change things through her power as an animator, the protagonist wants to alter the narrative’s direction.
