Best Isekai Anime Like The Red Ranger

The debut of The Red Ranger Becomes an Adventurer in Another World has fans of the isekai genre deeply engaged in its unique setting. This absurd satire is where the main ranger of a supersentai group is transported to a world of sword and sorcery. There, his out-of-the-box fighting style and heroic sense of justice will quickly turn him into a sight for sore eyes (for some) and quite an annoying and pesky obstacle for evil-doers.

7 Best Isekai Manhwa Where The Protagonist Is Betrayed, Ranked

These striking isekai manhwa focus on scenarios where the protagonist is betrayed, leading to excellent stories.

This killer combo of humor and adventure is just what the fans have been craving. But, would this be enough to satisfy fans of fantasy anime? Here’s a list of anime that can fill the gap between the release of this new series’ episodes, that feature a similar sense of humor or a similar setting.

Samurai Flamenco

Ridiculous And Addictive

• Release Date: October 10, 2013
• Number of Episodes: 22 (1 season)
• Where to Watch: Crunchyroll, Amazon Prime Video

This whacky story begins with Masayoshi Hazama, a young man looking to accomplish his sole goal in life: to be a supersentai hero. In a world where supervillains run rampant and heroes fight them in larger-than-life bouts that (most likely) end up with lots of collateral damage, this powerless hero emerges to become a notorious obstacle for both heroes and villains.

What began as a hobby quickly turns into his path in life, and with the stakes going higher and higher, Masayoshi has to put his heart and soul into the fight or die trying. Since he has no superpowers, he uses a ridiculous mixture of gadgets, lame poses, and strange catchphrases that are the very antithesis of superhero wisecrackers. As the story progresses, more and more villains appear, and Masayoshi turns out to be the hero nobody asked for, but that they most definitely needed. Good times.

Combatants Will Be Dispatched

A Treat For Fans Of Dark Humor

This crazy story starts with a world-domination enterprise named Kisaragi sending his “best” combatant to take over another world. A forced isekai from the get-go, since they literally break in (first offense) into another world, and fall into the classic Kingdom versus the Demon Lord trope as a third wheel, trying to outmaneuver both and conquer the world themselves. So, it is not about heroes here, but villains repeatedly committing wicked, heinous, and illegal actions to earn points and buy more weapons to keep committing crimes against mankind and demonkind as well.

8 Polarizing And Divisive Isekai Manga You Should Still Try

The following isekai manga tend to split fans down the middle, but that doesn’t mean readers should avoid them. Quite the contrary, in fact!

The series uses that characteristic zany humor from the author of KonoSuba and walks the edge of what can be considered technically illegal to make fun of. Unapologetic, brutal, and sometimes even cruel: Combatant N6 and his supervisor, Alice the Android, are a wrecking ball full of classic gags and satirical dark humor.

KonoSuba

A Fantasy World And A Cynical Main Character, What Could Go Wrong?

A main character that cannot help but be the rawest and most cynical isekai protagonist, a nearly useless magician who is wanted for arson in several kingdoms, an airhead Goddess who is not even recognized by her crazy followers, and a Paladin with masochistic tendencies. This might sound like the average lineup in a D&D homebrew one-shot, but it’s one of the most popular fantasy anime series and its peak satirical comedy.

Natsume Akatsuki’s humor has been the main attraction of his two flagship series ever since they started to run, and in this, his “magnum opus,” he makes use and abuse of it until fans are breaking their ribs with laughter. Truth be told, KonoSuba‘s sense of humor is not for everybody, and some might consider it a little bit “too much,” but for those who are there just to have a good laugh and can put up with some little fan service, it’s a great show.

No Game No Life

Two Sociopathic Siblings Go On A Rampage In A Game-like World

Sora and Shiro are quite a troublesome duo: both of them are extremely intelligent, and they most definitely have a low grade of empathy, and their goals are not entirely altruistic. In a race to beat this fantasy-like world where everything is a game of betting against one another, they will lie, cheat, manipulate the odds in their favor, and do whatever they must to reach their final goal: beat Tet and take over their seat as the new Gods of this world.

8 Polarizing And Divisive Isekai Manhwa You Should Still Try

These are some of the most divisive manhwa fans of the franchise should check out.

Everything happening in between is not the typical isekai anime where heroes go on a quest to save the world. Much like what happens in The Red Ranger Becomes an Adventurer in Another World, the inhabitants of that world got more than they had bargained for when these siblings were isekai’d into their realm. Good laughs abound, but obscure and twisted situations are also part of the fun in this anime.

Gintama

Honest-To-Goodness Satire That Will Make Your Day

Watching Gintama is entering headstrong into a world of comedy unlike most fans have ever seen. It is disguised as an action series, set in an alternate reality that mixes aliens, yokai, and other strange beings, where a group of freelancers work together doing odd jobs, most of which end up being of shady nature. A powerhouse in both comedy and animation, Gintama has a humongous fanbase that loves to talk about the many unresolved mysteries on the show.

But if fans want to get really into it, they should watch it with a pinch of salt. This episodic comedy balances out satire and light situational humor with an emphasis on cultural references that might be hard to understand for those not acquainted with Japanese gags. Still, it is a great alternative to most comedy shows that often cross the line with their scatological humor or senseless fan service.

6

Dandadan

Aliens, Yokai, RomCom…All At The Same Time

Sometimes, Dandadan can be a satire, and sometimes, a very serious action adventure where an urban fantasy and sci-fi mash-up delivers a powerful combo that makes the audience glued to their seats, watching one episode after the other.

This fabulous story of love, friendship, and invading aliens fighting against teens with supernatural abilities is just what anime fans might be looking for if they enjoyed the humorous Red Ranger isekai’d to another world series.

7

Mashle: Magic And Muscles

What Happens If A Barbarian Wants To Multiclass As A Wizard

Imagine joining a magic academy, knowing nearly zero about magic, and having nothing but raw muscle power as your main ability. Mashle is a series for all those individuals who love to play the weird builds in every ARPG, with Mash Burnedead as the protagonist of this whacky tale about friendship, magic, and unlikely situations that often lead to trouble.

If fans enjoyed the sense of humor of The Red Ranger Becomes an Adventurer in Another World, they most surely will enjoy this fantastical adventure, that has been confirmed to have a third season in 2025.
