Thinking we could turn back time, go to a place where we can get that fantasy feel, and finally be free from everything, is something that most of us imagine. But for our protagonists in stories like these, that sensation is something that has turned into reality and they are finally Isekai-d into this new world that changes them. The only difference between these manga lies in our characters, where some of them face hardships and are whipped into shape, and where others only have fun and face all the challenges head-on.

 As far as Isekai and reincarnated manga go, Konosuba is probably the best that there is. While it also has an anime adaptation that is totally off the charts, the manga is on par.
It has a pretty funny and unique plot where our main protagonist takes it upon himself to fool around and enjoy life as he is reborn in a new world with the goddess, Aqua. Instead of the serious mood and all the drama that we see in other Isekai manga, this one is pretty straightforward and also has a lot of puns that make this particularly funny and hilarious. Looking at it from another perspective, It just parodies every Isekai cliche.

Isn’t it true that our MC must be outmatched? I mean, in a majority of Isekai manga, the protagonist becomes overpowered after being bullied in their previous life, right? Wrong. She was transformed into a Spider! A spider is less powerful than a muck. This makes all these matters even worse, but our heroine refuses to give up.

 Our main protagonist, Subaru, is taken to another realm and has the capability to resurrect after death, making him effectively immortal! Unfortunately, Subaru cannot tell anybody about his power because when he does, the one who learns Subaru’s secret of returning to life would perish.
I enjoyed this one, and it was one of my faves because I appreciate how Subaru, despite so many deaths, eventually starts to achieve his goals, and even when things grow worse, he constantly attempts to find a solution.

CONCLUSION
These are some of the best Isekai mangas that are out there. While most of them may seem like a bore to read, almost every one of them gets interesting once you put your mind to it and read a proper amount. These manga will not make you lose interest in them and will give you the feeling that you need when reading Isekai manga.
