Certainly a familiar premise, if you are looking for more anime recommendations like How Not To Summon a Demon lord, then look no further.




For Fans of Overpowered Main Characters



Overlord

As the final hour approaches the life cycle of the MMO Yggdrasil, Momonga, a powerful wizard and leader of the dark guild Ainz Ooal Gown, is there to see it off. However, to his surprise, the servers don’t go down and even stranger is that all the NPC characters have come alive with their own unique personalities.

If there is one series that has such a similar feel to How Not to Summon a Demon Lord, it is Overlord. Not only is it about people transported to a new world in their MMO avatars, but they are both rather normal people that are forced to uphold their MMO persona. You also get to watch women fight over them for their affections.



Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsody

Suzuki Ichirou is a programmer for a game company, and in order to keep up with demands, he frequently sets his work pace to “death march” in which he works for days straight with little sleep and without going home. During one of these death marches, he falls asleep and when he wakes up, he is somehow transported inside of one of his games.

Being newer isekai series, you find many similarities here. However, while Suzuki’s avatar is pretty powerful, unlike How Not to Summon a Demon Lord, he often relies on his knowledge of the world and the game to use it to his advantage.



Sword Art Online

With the aid of NerveGear technology, video game players can now experience their playable worlds like never before – in virtual reality. For Kazuto Kirigaya, his game of choice is Sword Art Online. After beta testing the game, he logs into the launch and finds himself, as well as ten thousand other players, trapped in the game world.

The similarities here should be obvious. Both are based around MMO characters with only some slight differences in plot and setting. However, you watch overpowered main characters tear through everything and slowly gather themselves a proper harem of women.

For Fans of Being Called to Another World



In Another World With My Smartphone

In a blunder, God accidentally strikes down Touya Mochizuki. As an apology, he allows him one wish and the chance to live again in a magical fantasy world. He accepts, and uses his wish to be able to keep his smartphone when starting over.

These series, despite a different in main character battle power, are much the same. You have a normal guy in a new world with a secret weapon – knowledge. They then use that knowledge to thrive and people come to like them for it.



Gate

Japanese Self-Defense Force solider and otaku Youji Itami is in the Ginza district of Tokyo feeding his hobby one afternoon when a gate to another world opens and medieval soldiers flood modern day Japan. While Itami, in conjunction with the local police, manage to save many civilian lives, his hero status forces him to go beyond the gate with his fellow soldiers to explore a mysterious new world filled with swords, magic, elves, and dragons.

Unlike How Not to Summon a Demon Lord where the main character is pulled into a new world, in Gate, he goes in willingly. Both series have that classic Isekai excitement of discovering a new world, and both have overpowered main characters. The difference is that the overpowered nature in Gate comes from military weaponry.



Re: Zero

When Subaru Natsuki goes out for a midnight snack run, he suddenly finds himself transported to another world. As a bewildered teen in a land of swords and magic, he wanders around and ends up attacked by thugs. After being saved by a mysterious woman, he agrees to help her get back something that was stolen. Unfortunately, it ends in both their deaths. With his dying breath, he finds that he possesses the power of revival, escaping his death by the repeating the last few hours.

While How Not to Summon a Demon Lord has a main character with a wide array of powerful moves, Re:Zero has a main character with just the one. However, in both shows, you watch these normal people thrive in their new world and attract a number of people that look up to that power. While Re:Zero has a story that takes a more serious turn, you find that many of the themes are the same.

For Fans of Ecchi Fantasy



Konosuba

On his way back from buying a new game, Kazuma Satou died a pathetic death. However, he awakens before the Goddess Aqua who gives him two choices: go to heaven or reincarnate into an actual fantasy world. Naturally, the gamer picks the fantasy world. Now Kazuma must deal with defeating an evil demon king, useless party members, and paying living expenses.

Konosuba is basically a parody of all these other isekai series, How Not to Summon a Demon Lord included even though it predates it. While Kazuma is a relatively normal guy, to his credit, near the end, he is pretty good at combat. However, both shows have the ecchi comedy and the misfit harem aspect in common.



Outbreak Company

With parents that write light novels and draw eroge, Kanou Shinichi was born to be an otaku. One day, he finds himself transported to a fantasy world full of elves and dragons. In this world he is given a quest, not to fight monsters, but to become a moe missionary to teach everyone on the finer points of being an otaku.

In both shows, you have a main character sent to another world who uses their knowledge of our world to thrive. However, the main character in Outbreak Company isn’t so much overpowered, but he is just a normal guy like in How Not to Summon a Demon Lord, and is susceptible to the charms of women.



Monster Musume

With his parents abroad, Kimihito Kurusu is living the quiet alone life. Or rather, he was until an incompetent interspecies exchange coordinator made him the caretakers of a Lamia named Miia. With a supernatural creature now living in his house, it serves to not only break up his peace, but attract other supernatural beings as well.

While How Not to Summon a Demon Lord is a man meeting all sorts of people in another world as his MMO persona, Monster Musume is all about fantastic mythical creatures coming to our world. What they have in common is, of course, the ecchi factor. Both shows rely on it pretty heavily for the comedy.
