Loner Life In Another World
Goofy Main Character But Sick Art
- Genres: Adventure, Fantasy, Action, Comedy, Isekai
- Author: Shoji Goji
- Artist: Bibi
The story of how a NEET rescues his entire Class from an Isekai world trap wouldn’t be the same if not for the incredible artwork made by Bibi. A series that began as short weekly strips but quickly evolved into a full-fledged manga as it gained momentum, and it was mostly due to its incredible character designs and thrilling story of adventure and great comedic relief.
Readers will find in Loner Life In Another World some of the finest combat scenes drawn with magnificent precision and high attention to detail. The character designs are a little bit generic, but some like Angelica and Touka are quite well-made. Seems like the artist paid special attention to the heroines in this story, and that’s alright.

Ascendance Of A Bookworm
Its Cozy Character Designs And High Level Of Detail Are On Another Level
- Genres: Adventure, Fantasy, Reincarnation, Drama, Isekai, Comedy
- Author: Kazuki Miya
- Artist: Suzuka, Ryo Namino
Ascendance of a Bookworm is mostly known by its anime series, but the truth is that the Manga is also on a whole new level of art and design. In its first volumes (designed by Suzuka), its character lines are fluid, and their expressions are vivid. Every scene is a remembrance of the golden age of Shounen/Shojo Manga, but with a stylish and modern take.
After Volume 20, the art direction was handled by Ryo Nanimo, who did a splendid job at preserving the overall quality of the series throughout 8 more volumes. One of the reasons why this series re-defined the Isekai genre is its incredible artwork.

- Author: Nekoko
- Artist: NAJI Yanagida, RIO
Writen by Nekoko, this story about a modern person reincarnating in another world as a Dragon Hatchling is a whacky adventure filled to the brim with memorable characters and lots of stunningly beautiful art. NAJI Yanagida is the cover designer for this serialization, and the covers are simply magnificent.

The Faraway Paladin
Great Scenarios And Worldbuilding
- Genres: Action, Adventure, High Fantasy, Isekai, Sword And Sorcery
- Author: Yanagino Kanata
- Artist: Okuhashi Mutsumi
The Faraway Paladin has become notorious in the past years due to the release of its animated series, but it was way before that the world inspired in Tolkien’s Imaginarium came to life by the hands of Yanagino Kanata and Okuhashi Mutsumi. Both of them are talented at their crafts, but Okuhashi is a master at world-building and scenario design.
The panoramic views and high level of detail of the environments in this manga are simply magnificent. It’s hard to believe that it took so long for it to gain enough momentum to get its anime. Now, fans are already eagerly awaiting season 3, and they have a good excuse to immerse themselves in this fantastical world by re-visiting this gorgeous manga.

I Was Reincarnated as the 7th Prince So I Can Take My Time Perfecting My Magical Ability
Gorgeous, A Masterpiece Of Character And World Design
- Genres: Adventure, Fantasy, Action, Comedy, Isekai
- Author: Kenkyo na Circle
- Artist: Yōsuke Kokuzawa
One of the best things this series has is its breathtaking art, made by Yōsuke Kokuzawa, one of the most proficient manga artists of the past decades. His attention to detail, character designs, and background designs are simply magnificent. In a series where magic experimentation leads to a young reincarnated kid creating the most brutal of magic effects, an art direction that reflects the marvels (and horrors) of magic is a must.
At that, Kokuzawa is a masterful artist who has created some of the most perfect representations of magical power in a bidimensional production. And the world background design is never a half step behind, since this mangaka is also a beast creating fantastical worlds, creatures, and basically anything that expresses the wonders of a fantastical world.
