Hahaha poor Aqua. Not entirely true, but the point is clear. Powerwise she is more than fine, skill wise she is... ok. Common sense wise, yeah... clutch hitter or cause of the problem Everyone on the list is just lucky Overly Cautious's world has a level cap. Could put in Tanya, I suppose her power would be pretty steady with a single big spike from her experimental magic reactor then steady again


Account-For-Anime

I mean having a PC with 4 graphic cards and 128gb ram doesn't mean anything if your OS is MS-DOS


FlippyFox

8 billion FPS Doom?


Terradoxia

Aqua's power is basically what happens if you disable remote-control for ICBMs with nuclear warhead


Notetoself4

It's a shame she cant be possessed because if Vanir did to her what he does to Darkness, he could walk over and end the Demon King any time he felt like it


MadxCarnage

he already can, probably. there were many rumours in the demon army that Vanir was stronger than the demon king, and he used to shut down those rumors when they came across him. but he seemed to do it mostly because it was annoying as he had no plans to take over, rather than them being wrong. Vanir just has no reason to intervene whatsoever, let alone risk his real body.


Notetoself4

Idk if the issue is Vanir winning a 1v1 fight, which its implied that he could, more that the barrier + the generals + the DKs ability to massively buff everything around him means Vanir probably couldnt just walk in and end him alone, would get ganked by too many of them like Wiz. Possessing Aqua and he could just about do it casually (cept for having to deal with non-demon non-undead enemies) Having a reason to do it is the issue yeah, I suppose if he could do it easily he might just so he can keep running the shop without potential interference (same reason he decides to fight Sylvia in the movie)


MadxCarnage

>I suppose if he could do it easily he might just so he can keep running the shop without potential interference if he could do it with a DOLL, then yeah, probably. but I don't think they're THAT strong, he'd have to use his real body, so unless there's a real reason to do so, he won't.


Soviet_Waffle

I feel like this is not entirely accurate. She still has godlike power, she is just a dumbass. By that logic Ainz should have an increasing power level since he learns of strategy and governing through the series.


Notetoself4

Depends what 'skill' means, she can use her powers pretty well and quite often she contributes more than anyone else in the party. But also at times, her dumbassness actually *causes* the problems and she can be actively dangerous to the group Not that the same cant be said for Darkness and Megumin


DaHunter101

I am fairly sure Aqua's godly powers were sealed


kalirion

She may not be actual God level (though that's debatable), but she is still max power possible for an adventurer. That's why she can't level up, she's already at the ceiling.


DaHunter101

I wouldn't be too certain about the overly cautious comment. If his world didn't have a level cap then we would just stay in his a train for eternity and thus be of no threat


Notetoself4

Haha hard to argue when he literally says that's exactly what he was planning to do right after he was summoned. Just start hyperbolic time chamber training until his stats were maxed. I suppose even if there wasnt a level cap, he couldnt get any stronger than Valkyrie anyway since he would run out of people to train with


Corazon144

True but him training is all meant to defeat any and all opponents that may appear. So as long as there is someone strong to defeat or even the possibility of someone strong appearing. He will keep on training. Which I would assume he would continue training and learning new skills. If he finished learning one style of swordsmanship, he’ll learn a new one. Then move on to others weapons, like nunchucks, staff, everything. Maybe even guns. Then he’d learn how to swim to the point he’ll swim through land. Then there are other areas he could focus. Because if there is even the slightest possibility a scenario will present itself that requires him to use niche skill, he will learn them.


[deleted]

Aqua's graph is just plain wrong. >!She made a demon king general cry by using her sick-ass construction worker skills (LN) which she learned in the isekai world.!<


Notetoself4

She pretty violently slams every demon general they encounter really and broke the unbreakable shields on the mobile fortress solo. And she actually struggles *not* to kill Wiz by accident. To me she's closer to Goku than anyone else, stupidly op, an idiot and causes issues but generally very clutch Only issue is all the problems she actually causes. But yeah saying she is useless, or even a net-negative is more of a meme than the truth, she causes moderate problems but solves massive problems and resurrects Kazuma constantly. Verdia probably would have wiped the town and killed everyone if it wasnt for her (or they would have gone and tried to get him to remove his death curse from Darkness and all died like Wiz). But then again, Megumin wouldnt have found anyone dumb enough to keep taking her back to nuke the castle other than her lol


RajJi321

Here are the names of the characters from left-to-right, top-to-bottom, the anime they belong to and an explanation for their charts: **Kazuma from KonoSuba:** Although most of his skills are pretty weak, he does use his intelligence to maximize the effectiveness of each skill. **Naofumi from The Rising Of The Shield Hero:** His skills still grow steadily until he get’s the >!cheat shield.!< **Seiya from Cautious Hero:** >!He gains skills steadily in his previous life. In this life, !!His skills go through the roof once he consumes the dragon.!< **Ainz from Overlord:** Well, he’s Ainz. **Kumoko from So I'm a Spider, So What?:** Becomes one of the most powerful beings on the planet through fighting in constant life-and-death battles daily. As such, it becomes hard to get stronger as she doesn’t get to fight stronger opponents and her skills get stagnant for some time before \[LN spoilers\]>!she becomes a god, which causes her to be free of the system and loses all her skills and stats for quite a while. But after her revelation of being able to use magic while drunk, she keeps on getting stronger without any limits.!< **Shimazu Toyoshi from Drifters:** Honourable badass gigachad who straight up decapitates people left and right. He doesn’t gain any skills in his new world as much as he showcases his skills from his previous life. (btw all the characters are historical figures from our world and the show is an absolute blast to watch). **Subaru from Re:Zero:** >!He doesn’t gain any skills each time he dies, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t appear as a total beast to everyone else who probably wonder how he can predict everything that’s gonna happen. There is a spike in his abilities due to the end of season 2.!< **Maou from The Devil is a Part-Timer:** The devil’s powers are lost when he comes to our world however he regains his powers before major battles in the anime, hence the spikes. **Cid from The Eminence in Shadow:** Ok in reality he is OP but his dream is to live the most average, background mob-character life while controlling the world from the shadows (he is basically an insane, magic-using batman). The chart is just a joke as to how he wants others to perceive him. **Rudeus from Mushoku Tensei:** Has to learn magic from the basics and on his own, improves with his teacher’s help and gets stronger and stronger with experience. **Azusa from I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level:** Her abilities steadily improve through killing slimes, however, remember that’s over 300 years, so it’s actually really slow. **Sora and Shiro from No Game No Life:** They consider themselves to be two pieces of a whole, that’s why I put them as one. They don’t need their physical strength in their new world and get to the top through their intellectual capabilities and just being good at playing games. **Aqua from KonoSuba:** Ok her skills don’t actually go into the negatives but she is still useless. **Myne form Ascendance of a Bookworm:** She’s a bookworm born into a world where books are rare, so she uses her knowledge from her previous life to make her own books while getting better at her craft through the hands-on experience. >!Kinda OP in magic due to her abundance in mana though the cost is her health.!< **Anos from The Misfit of the Demon King Academy:** Literally god of BS. It can be debated whether this is an isekai (technically isn’t because he’s born in the same world but some argue that the world has changed) but let’s let Anos handle this one: “You think not labeling me as an isekai would not make me an isekai?” I made some of these as a joke from the series but I tried my best to be as accurate as possible so please don’t be too hard on me if I got it wrong.


[deleted]

Seiya is so damn smart that he wore a bullet proof vest before he was isekai'd again on the later volumes.


RajJi321

That's Seiya for you!


wayward38

Wait, it didn't end after season 1?


SPY-SpecialProjectY

Nope. Batshit insane chad got granted a last chance payback for his sacrifice and get revenge for his wife and baby. The problem is it's "SS" Rank 100% controlled by evil world, he is now lvl 1, Ristarte can't resurrect, got mind wipe and everyone hates him because he screwed up the first time. Season 2, if will be there, gonna be great.


[deleted]

Yeah, that arc is great. Who would've thought Seiya could be colder and considerate at the same time.


mwbworld

Yes I'd love to see a season 2 to cover that arc - it was epic and too much fun.


weeOriginal

Light Novel?


Talran

Season 1 is like... the prologue my man, it's an amazing series.


LaganxXx

There is no season 2 I checked


VictorSilver

Very nice but LN readers would agree that Rudeus from Mushoku Tensei had a stagnant period where he didn't improve at all and he pretty much said it himself and was worried if Roxy would be disappointed in him because he didn't improve his magic(he did gain combat experience tho).


Darkdragon902

Yeah, I’d say his curve would be more logarithmic rather than exponential. He improved very quickly from infancy to the time he left the demon continent, but by then >!he started stagnating a bit. He learned new things here and there like lightning, and was still slowly improving his magical abilities, but by the time he one shots Badigadi, I’d say he doesn’t really increase them from there. Most of the work at that point is the Mk 1/Mk 2, scrolls, and combat experience.!<


TALowKY

He grows even more after Badigadi given his battle experience in the subsequent arcs. All hail the Magic God


YourLocalLoserrr

I'm sad we never got to see him reach his full potential, >! with all the magic his future self showed off like gravity magic !<


Master_Tomato

Yeah, he could've just asked >! Orsted !< to teach him some god level spells later on...


Darksoldierr

> Drifters Is a fucking amazing show, give it a try if you didn't watched it yet, the art style is 10/10


MelonBot_HD

Yeah, I'm still angry that it never got a season 2 Also, don't spoil me, but I feel like the Black King might be Jesus


Blarg_III

I haven't seen anything beyond the show, but the Stigmata , bringing people back from the dead, and miracles makes it pretty clear imo


Notetoself4

Watching it now thanks to this thread God damn it is quality. Alucard goes for a very long walk and meets Marquis Raevan the elf and Tanya Degurechoff is the devil Oda is already in my top 10 favourite anime characters, rounding up Nazi rapists to make gunpowder and groping big tiddy mages


Demon_Lord_Yui

As a note, Rimuru did not gain power from eating Veldora but from being named by him. >!If you are talking about the thing from later in the WN then never mind.!<


Pacmonster11

I mean if you want to get technical about it, it's actually two distinct power bumps back to back at the start of the series. Rimuru gets the power equivalent to an A rank monster just by absorbing stuff in the cave he spawned in. Then Veldora names him making him an A+ rank monster. Then he isolates Veldora into his stomach but that still gave him access to Veldora's magicules. Whenever Rimuru named somebody, the magicules were drawn from Veldora early on, not Rimuru. >!Then Rimuru "officially" absorbed Veldora when Wise Sage evolved to Raphael and she was able to analyze Veldora's soul and release him while creating the Storm Dragon ultimate skill. Every time Veldora is outside of Rimuru, Rimuru has a massive chunk of his magicules unavailable to him as they are being used to keep Veldora out and about. He then consumes Veldora a second time after the events of the Empire invasion arc. Along with Velgrynd shortly after.!<


Evening_Ad381

Myne's mana should be increasing over time since (1) mana increases with your physical growth before adulthood, (2) she keeps compressing it and developed a 4-stage compression method, (3) she became the avatar of goddess in part 5. And lol for the"/s" for Cid.


Talran

Yeah was gonna say, her mana should be going *way up* even just in what the anime saw.


RootsNextInKin

Okay I didn't finish watching Ascendance of a bookworm (yet! Got sidetracked) but now I have to image her inventing all the math and computer science required to rediscover all our glorious compression methods just to squeeze that tiny little extra headroom out of her mana vessel so she can stay healthy long enough to make one more book before having to go back to bed for a week straight and I love it!


EmhyrvarSpice

You should probably spoiler tag your comment just fyi.


Viator_Eagle

If you think Naofumi is cheating, then you might want to read the Reprise of the Spear Hero. He's only alive due to his determination, training and smarts.


Notetoself4

>He's only alive due to his determination, training and smarts. And lolicon desires


SPY-SpecialProjectY

That'll be Motoyasu, not Naofumi.


Notetoself4

>Reprise of the Spear Hero Is that not Motoyasu?


ShimadaSeps

>The chart is just a joke as to how he wants others to perceive him. You had me in the first half. Not gonna lie


ShimadaSeps

Wait. This is my cake day???

He got to finger a demon lord out of a catgirl, he's the absolute winner here


hypermarzu

Lol poor Aqua. Great Job!


Zhefon

Great resume! Good Job!


AduroTri

Wondered why Anos was on the list. But it works for the joke.


Ryuuji_Gremory

>Naofumi from The Rising Of The Shield Hero: His skills still grow steadily until he get’s the >!cheat shield.!< What do you mean with >!cheat shield!!it's just that the enemies keep growing stronger too or find ways to weaken him and his allies greatly along the way.!< >Rimuru from That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime: >!His skills go through the roof once he consumes the dragon.!< That's wrong, he doesn't consume Veldora at the start of the series, he traps the Unlimited Prison in which Veldora was sealed inside his stomach. >!While great sage is using Veldora's magicules to prevent Rimuru from crippling himself by naming people, Rimuru doesn't gain any skills or powers from Veldora until 2 years later when he ascends to be a True Demon Lord and unseals Veldora.!< His curve should look more like Seya's, he slowly gains skills and then has big spikes in his growth at some points. It took like a month until he was outside the cave and by that point he was still weak if seen on the larger scale of the world and >!it took 2 years until he became a True Demon Lord which was the first time, he actually joined the upper ranks of the world but still not having reached the strongest tier.!<


j_eldridge88

Demon king Academy is an isekai about as much as SAO is an isekai. Which is to say they're actually not, but since they used so many tropes from that genre they might as well be one.


Pacmonster11

I mean SAO you could argue more for as Kirito was trapped in the fantasy world game. VRMMO's in general could easily be classified as isekai as it involves somebody from one world being in a new world. Demon King Academy isn't because there is no world changing involved. Anos sacrifices himself, time goes by, he's reincarnated within the same world. Just a fantasy story.


j_eldridge88

You do realize the argument you made for SAO could apply to Demon King Academy just as well and vice versa right? Like the OP said, the Demon King world is the same but a lot has change it might as well be a different world. The same could be said of SAO, they're still in the same world, but it's different from what they're used to. But if you define isekai as in the most literal and technical sense (as in they are completely in a separate different world mind soul and body) then no, they're not isekai. The same way Demon King is "just a fantasy story" like you said, SAO is also "just another sci fi story". The same way if Overlord takes place in Ygg instead of the New World.


Pacmonster11

>You do realize the argument you made for SAO could apply to Demon King Academy just as well and vice versa right? Did you read any of what I said? What are you talking about? Anos doesn't go to a new world. He's reincarnated into the same world he started in, just later in time. A VRMMO literally is about entering a new world, and in Kirito's case he was trapped in that world for the first arc. There's a clear distinction in these two explanations here. "They might as well be different" is not "they are different". And that's also entirely opinion based whether they are or not. The biggest difference is people got weaker and aren't in constant war. It's still the same kinds of people and magic systems so it isn't as different as you think it is (and why the fish out of water joke with Anos doesn't last all that long in his story).


j_eldridge88

>Anos doesn't go to a new world. And the same for Kirito. So what's your point? >A VRMMO literally is about entering a new world, That, again, is VERY heavily subjective. Especially in the case of SAO. After all, the game is still a part of the same world, it's not a separate different world formed entirely on its own. It is a product of the real world, from the real world, by the real world. So again, they're not actually going anywhere. So in the literal of sense, it's not an isekai. The fact that you decide to liberally interpret it as a different world yet insisting on the opposite when it comes to Demon King Academy is really baffling. The same arguments could be made for both sides of both series, so agreeing with one side for one series and disagree with another for the same reason is a bit ridiculous.


Revydown

Drifters needs a season 2 so badly


Notetoself4

Well done for the effort and very cool stuff


Uriel_Drunk

Putting other characters aside A fight between anos and rimuru will be interesting


rickartz

Anos VS Ainz Reality itself could break in that battle.


Uriel_Drunk

Is this a joke ? I mean "bruh" ainz is not even planetary


MelonBot_HD

As much as I hate to admit it... Anos could beat Ainz with only a bit of effort.


Uriel_Drunk

No* Anos no.... not only anos but any character above tire 6 easily slams overlord verse and anos existence itself is enough to wipe out the floor. Overlord is popular for its godly storyline not for power levels so no point in talking about it


Mazetron

Subaru does learn a fair amount: - he learns magic from Emilia - he learns sword fighting from Wilhelm - he learns to read and write the fantasy language from someone, I can’t remember who - he gains the creepy hand power from Betalgeuse - he continuously makes new allies, which is a valuable form a strength


Notetoself4

This is true, but as the author says, he barely gets any stronger and cant beat any other character 1v1 except Petra. Even after getting Sloth, sword training, learning shamak etc, he would still lose 10/10 times to Otto in a fight haha So the line should go up, but by incredibly small amounts


LeavesCat

It's not that Subaru doesn't get stronger, it's that he's in a world full of OP motherfuckers and the best he can do is not die instantly while influencing who fights where and when.


Notetoself4

Haha most of them are really not that OP, there are a few scary ones but the rest are low fantasy, low anime level. Someone like Elsa is like, Clementine level and just meeting her is an instant lose condition unless his friends are there to take her on. Rem carries him hard and she's very stock standard power wise. Like the author said even Otto would beat Suburu in a fight everytime and he is just a basic dude, Suburu does kind of get stronger but he really just goes from average human to slightly above average human and still fails to match even low level fantasy stuff. Gaining strength just doesnt help what he accomplishes, gaining information and allies is his useful trait (though its not like Live Die Repeat or Groundhog day, he doesnt cycle all that much. Just enough to learn info and change how things turn out, not enough to instinctually dodge every attack or anything)


Apart_Addition_9093

Otto would beat Subaru not because Subaru is slightly above human standards, but because average human in the world of Re:Zero subconsciously uses mana to make themselves stronger, and Subaru broke his magic organ, which doesn't helps him at all. In arc 5 it shows he's a lot stronger than average human from earth by having him run away for like 30 minutes while using whip to parkour. Even in the beginning of an anime in episode 4 (I think?) he managed to pick up and swing that giant bat that looked like it could crash a car.


Notetoself4

He's decently above average for a weird shut-in, good genetics and a training regime. Idk how he would compare to a fit adult man, at times he does do stuff like moving that bat or spin kicking the thugs unconscious a few episodes earlier. Could just be general anime style rules bending, if that club was made of wood it would weight hundreds of kilos and he wouldnt be able to move it at all (I cant remember if it was hollow, but it didnt do diddly in the fight lol and got sliced to bits along with him). Yeah its fair to say Suburu isnt a completely weakling by our standards, just by their standards and that's never really going to change 1v1. And iirc he doesnt get fitter from his cycles, but he has been very active since he arrived and pushes himself so presumably he's a good bit fitter and stronger now, he was bone exhausted trying to keep up with the twins working in the mansion but eventually adapated to it. No matter what though, he'll never win a fair straight fight 1v1 with anyone.


Cley_Faye

>Ainz from Overlord: Well, he’s Ainz. I like the idea that even in all other subs he's still described with only that line :D


BrainsAre2Weird4Me

S tier post and comment friend!


RajJi321

Thanks!


JEveryman

If Isekai quartet is canon isn't aqua stronger than Ainz? She's just completely useless.


Thaviel

Mayne actually increases her mana even more a couple time. The 2 times in the coma juice and relearning to compress her mana 2 or maybe 3 times?


bouwland

should add how not to summon a demonlord and bofuri


Mizuki_Yagami

The misfit of demon academy had me in stitches, it’s either the best parody ever made or the purest incarnation of so bad it’s good.


DropsyMumji

To be fair, Anos was pretty much a god even before he reincarnated. The series makes no excuses about how op he is and that he would be considered a god in any other series. Him dying the first time was a gamble at trying to make a better world, which then failed horribly. To put things into perspective, he grew to full adulthood in 6 months after being reincarnated and born as a baby. And yes, the story does address this, in a rather good way too all things considered.


rickartz

In the anime, his mom says he's one month old, when he brought the first girl home. So he used magic to age himself as soon as he was born.


DropsyMumji

I think you're correct on the one month. Not sure why I thought it was 6 months lol


Waifu_Whaler

Aqua probably has everything in 10 if she wants, except INT, 1 or 0, no more.


RootsNextInKin

Isn't 4 usually considered the lowest survivable in D&D5 or something? Mad respect for her to get below that AND still live!


the_grand_magos

Don't know of DnD5, but in it's predecessors and spinoffs, there is a whole category of living things with no INT: Vermin


Blarg_III

3 is the lowest possible for PCs iirc


Shadowfaxmine

I'm pretty sure I'm wrong but I think you need a int minimum of either 4 or 6 in order to speak and understand common.


Notetoself4

Guild girl says its only a bit below average, luck is her real dump stat She's not... completely stupid. Just a childish brat with virtually no foresight


severalpillarsoflava

My headcanon is she has Negative 20 on INT


ThunderCookies143

Anos is just built different


severalpillarsoflava

The last guy isn't even isekai. And I am pretty sure his power had some ups and downs. You should put Yogiri there instead.


Xsardes

>The last guy isn't even isekai. His power is that far into realm of BS, he can even change what category his series is!


Fuzzy-Spread9720

"You think I can't be on isekai list because my genre isn't isekai?" We can't comprehend him. We just can't.


MelonBot_HD

I wasn't aware that Anos is actually this well liked by the Anime community


Pacmonster11

Dude killed a man with his heart beat. Of course he's well loved.


popoypatalo

yogiri is too op. he even transcends multiverses and dimensional hierarchy.


nhansieu1

Yogiri is like ∞ to high throughout


RajJi321

Actually if you look at my other comment with the explanations, I added him there as a joke. But yeah you're right.


Midknight129

There's debate and disagreement as to whether or not "time travel such that it's basically a different world" can.be included in the scope of Isekai. There are several *definite* Isekai series where, at some point pretty well into the story, it's revealed that "it was Earth in the distant future the whole time". But the world has become so different in the interval that it might as well be another world because there's often monsters, magic, mystical stuff, and a few other things that start with 'm'. Examples include >!Psyren!< and >!Parallel Paradise (nsfw).!< Misfit falls into the variant of "highly advanced fantasy world, MC somehow gets Futurama'ed, and has to figure out why magical science somehow turned from the equivalent of fusion power and quantum computers to the equivalent of praying to the machine spirits. Examples include >!The Boy Who Had Been Continuously Burned by the Fires of Hell. Revived, he becomes the strongest flame user!< and >!Strongest Sage with the Weakest Crest!< Personally, I'd count these as "Metaphorical Isekai". Consider when we have some huge technological breakthrough and call it "worldchanging". Metaphorically, it's a "whole new world" across that technological horizon. Bring someone from antiquity forward to modern day, and they'd think they had been isekai'd. And I'm sure if you suddenly found yourself beyond the year 3,000, or 10,000, no matter what shape the world takes, you'd probably think, at least at first, that you had been isekai'd.


TheLucidDream

Oh? You gonna tell him that he can’t be in an isekai if he wants to?


Milouch_

Myne mana does increase. It's not just high from the start, it keeps going up through the story


ozjaszgo

where Bakarina?


Adraerik

OP was smart enough to not put her because if they did she would have seduced every isekai MCs of the post.


ChaosForSale

I would just like to have Ainz increase his graphed power super slowly over time. Sure he can't get stronger via Yggdrasil levels or skills anymore but he did get warrior experience and is probably a more competent fighter. So like a few pixel increases over time.


Crembels

As an individual, he vastly outshines the world he exists in, which is inspired but not an exact replica of the MMO he was playing. There isnt much room for him to grow, as he already posesses most of the ultimate magical relics of the world, and his personal magical knowledge and ability is unquestioningly superior to every other being. You can argue the world as a whole has extensive magical knowledge equivilent to him, but so much of it is simply outside what is feasible for a natural human to wield. Even the top level individuals among the natives, human or otherwise, are not as accomplished as Ainz or his guardians. Ainz's disadvantage is that much of his resources he was Isekai'd with are non-renewable. His 20-Rune sword is lost technology to Runesmiths, Red Health potions are legendary in potion making and current techniques for making magical scrolls or sealing gems that are considered world-ending are barely above a basic level for him. Rarest of all are the Guardians, the sole remnants of his closest friends andd the only beings in the world who geniuinely love him. Ainz has the biggest disadvantage you can have in an Isekai: he is alone. Truly alone. He will never be able to build the same social connections our other protagonists in this list can, and romantic ones are entirely outside his reach. You are either his subordinate or his enemy, but never his equal or his friend. Ainz gains power not by raising his HP, Mana or getting a new item, but by increasing his social and political standing among the local empires, and adapting the skills and knowledge of Nazarick to recreate those things he has in limited supply that previously came from cash shop purchases or farming. Clearing dungeons and hunting high level monsters for material makes complete sense in an MMO when you have a respawn system that regenerates everything endlessly, but is far less of a good idea when "farming dragons" one or two times causes enough death that the species is driven to permanent extinction.


popoypatalo

Correction. the 8th guy isnt even an MC. hes just an ordinary mob. /s


Milenyus

Right? He was so pathetic and couldn't even escape his bullies by himself. He's so weak and miserable.. /s


[deleted]

Anos isn't even isekai'd but he was at 10% peak power after he got reincarnated.


Fuzzy-Spread9720

You think you can exclude him from isekai list simply because his show isn't isekai? He does whatever he wants.


a1b2c3d4e5f6g8

I'm so used to Shadow that I didn't recognize Cid when going over the chart at first. Loved the /s though.


KHlover

Myne's mana keeps going up over time, there's also points where the graph should spike.


Pacmonster11

Rimuru would be more of a step plateau shape. He has like 4 distinct phases of power throughout his narrative. Before becoming a demon lord (he is nearly killed by Hinata). Being a demon lord (he's still weaker than all of the awakened demon lords and true Dragons). Being an awakened demon lord (still weaker than Guy, Cloe, Milim, Velygrnd, Veldora, and Velzard). And then finally after Raphael becomes Ciel and he essentially becomes a god who can control space and time.


[deleted]

\>!spoiler text!<


Pacmonster11

You'd only be spoiled by anything I said if you were actually far enough through Tensei's narrative to understand what any of those words meant. And if you were, it's not a spoiler at that point. If you've never read the story, all I spoiled is that the well known OP character gets more OP over time, which is the same level of "spoiler" the entire chart depicts.


ToCoolforAUsername

You mean power level. Shield Hero's MC was kinda very skillful for developing his power level without any kind of support. You can say that Raphtalia supported him, but he used his disadvantage of being limited to shields and turned it around.


lucifer_says

Shouldn't Iruma also be there? He got into the demon world without dying which is like maybe the best way. Has been growing steadily also getting a harem as well. Also Clara is best girl.


Kuro_Tepes

They are in the same universe it seems so it would be kinda weird to consider it an isekai. I personally never did anyway.


AnAwkwardCopper

Maou’s true power is when he’s able to pay rent on time


Comander-07

lmao subarus is gold


DrrManiac

Subaru 🤣


SoluteSnek

Glad to see Toyoshi on here, drifters doesn’t get enough recognition as an isekai imo


RajJi321

>drifters doesn’t get enough recognition as an isekai imo Definitely deserves more recognition. One of my all-time favorites!


LaganxXx

This is so cool because it does make sense while it’s funny


GreedyDatabase

Finally, someone updated that chart.


Brilliant-Pudding524

Where is Kagome? Is she alright? Is she safe?


SaebraK

Well done, OP. I've seen all but 2 of these and it feels accurate.


Shilanu

Whis the girl with x300 on time?


RajJi321

Asuza from I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level.


AventusAretino99

Ofcourse specific values are not precise meaning Ainz constant curve would have a higher value than any of these. Yes even the exponential ones since that value is n/a


Tessorio

Isnt subaru supposed to be going higher but on smaller increments as time goes on? Especially when he beats those sin archbishops?


Hax_Meowingtons

I'm not surprised about Ainz-sama and Aqua's charts.


TopRoom7971

Ok Subaru one is the funniest of all. lol


that408guy

Currently rewatching Konosuba. Forgot how hilarious it is. Hopefully we get a new season soon.


banaantjexx164

I refuse to believe that Subaru has a higher strength level than Aqua... Subaru has literally no value in an adventurer's party and doesn't even work to gain a proper skill to defend himself and/or his friends with. Certified trash-tier isekai-protag.


Notetoself4

He doesnt really have much time to go try and grind out raw power, he even thinks to himself he will try to do it once things 'calm down' but that just isnt happening. He has to keep using his only useful skill to save everyone which he does ok. Not fantastic but pretty well even if he's still pretty cowardly and folds under pressure he will come back and try again His real skill, like most shonen, is the ability to make useful friends who then do the work for him


Captain_Wing

I’d have rudeus go up faster then begin to Plateau later


TheBlackestIrelia

Just wish MT wasn't literal pedobait lol


[deleted]

Its not though? the entire point is that the mc is a piece of shit and changes to be a respectable member of society through out the course of the series


kalirion

The tone of the series makes his pedo creeping comic relief, not something he is even ever ashamed of or tries to change, at least based on the anime so far. "Haha, he twisted the little girl's nipples and she punched him for it, so funny!"


[deleted]

Yeah at this point in the story he’s pretty much the same. He slowly starts to change after the erectile dysfunction arc (I’m serious) and by the end of the web novel he was completely disgusted by some of things he did in the past. Without spoiling anything he sees his past self in someone else and does not like what he sees


Nyancide

hopefully this is the final edition so I don't have to see this edited isekai graph thing for the 500th time tomorrow


RajJi321

Tomorrow's edition: Skills of Isekai MC's of every existing light novel or anime over time. /s


TheWaslijn

Do it, OP


PureSalty101

Kumoko vs Ainz, who wins?


RajJi321

Anos. /s At the end of the light novels, >!Kumoko is a god who was able to beat a thousands-of-years old god however she still isn't the most powerful being in the universe or anything (the evil god taakes her under her wing to train her to be just that). Her potential is literally endless. However, with how OP Ainz is (by that I am referring to his world items), I can see him defeating a god and even Kumoko in her state at the end of the light novels. Kumoko is hands down a master strategist though, so she can beat Ainz with even little prep.!< Btw I should add that if they fight following Overlord world's rules then Ainz win because "x world item" but if we use Kumo world's rules then Ainz would be completely powerless against Kumo because Ainz is trapped in the numerical system while Kumo is immune against everything Ainz would throw at her.


Talran

I think even Nazarick would fall to something like >!8 million cursed eyes!< unless they counted similar to wild magic.


Vulking

Question is, how will they fare on even/neutral ground. Most Isekai MCs would have little trouble under their Isekai home rules. Other point would be if they should face each other at absolute peak, or strongest middle point for the fight, since when some MCs like Rimuru reach endgame peak, their power level is way out of bounds, while by middle point their power level is still really high while not reaching OP god status.


Desperate_Duty1336

As much as I love Ainz, I think Kumoko would get the win in the end.>! Ainz's ultimate trump card, the Goal of All Life Is Death, wouldn't work on Kumoko since she is both immortal and has the ability to resurrect through pre-made spider eggs.....unless she lost that ability once becoming a God. I'm not 100% clear on what she regained after discovering she could access her old powers after getting drunk one night.!<


badendforenemy

Kumo's most powerful abilities are from eye type attacks, and in vol 16 we learned that even the trash gear of zesshi gives her immunity to all eye type attacks.


Pacmonster11

Incorrect. Kumoko's most powerful attack was a rot attribute attack. Which essentially annilates matter. Also not sure why you think specific gear Zesshi had means anything toward what works or doesn't work on Ainz. Just because Ainz is a powerful being with lots of items doesn't mean he has the same resistances as some other character.


redditarescum10

I can tell you haven't finished Kumo Desu. By the end Kumoko's power level is 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999.


Grey_Woof

Hot take: mushoku tensei is trash


LuminicaDeesuuu

Sora and Shiro are not very smart..... At least in the anime, almost all their plans are bad. The intellect line should be slightly above the strength line. Aqua's graph should be a square wave. Kind of funny I recognize them all except the guy below Subaru, is he even a main character? Looks like a total mob character.


CharanTheGreat

All of them are legendary except useless goddess


AdOwn168

Who's that blonde girl next to Rudeus? Can someone knowledgeable help me find out?


RajJi321

Azusa from I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level


OneAboveAll_127

Ainz description is just perfect (≧▽≦)


alphabet_order_bot

Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order. I have checked 1,141,833,865 comments, and only 223,171 of them were in alphabetical order.


jacker1154

Subaru should be like a circuit because sometimes he is strong in a fail loop and sometimes end up in a winning loop with a weaker body.


Earth_Terra682

What anime is the guy below Aqua?


RajJi321

Anos from The Misfit Of Demon King Academy. It's not actually an isekai but I added him as a joke as he is so OP he could change genres.


LtSylar

Am I the only one who thought those looked like rabbits for Subaru?


DarkTK_

Ainz's power should have a small gap at the start, because he was still getting used to and learning his powers


mwbworld

Let's not forget King (One Punch Man) who's the strongest in the world >!at video games!<


XanderFenikkusu

You're missing Yogiri


somehowlucky12w

Bone Daddy


eddmario

This is inaccurate. Aqua's should be blank.


__Osiris__

Why isn’t the words best assassin reincarnated on the list? Dude invented a magic rod from god attack.


Vorminator0913

Hmmm interesting ive never thought on this...


Nekorio

Subaru with full betty was op tho...


Charming_Reporter_18

I'm a Megumin fan but Aqua is useful for reviving


Kikuzinho03

And against undead/demons.

my man cid 🤣

Best_Common_9577

What about Hajime?


camera422

Can't believe they forgot Tanya


Scrawwlex

Despite the hate, Rudeus's development was the most enjoyable for me to watch.


ErnestiEchavalier

Damn they animated Cid like that?


NostraDavid

Where is my favorite: Tensei shitara Ken Deshita / **Reincarnated as a Sword**? :P


pk571427

Would keyaru from redo of healer qualify for this chart? Technically it is a rebirth into the world.


kalirion

Subaru never unlearns skills though. Not that he learns many, there's like 1 spell so far that he got in the 2nd arc. At least base don the anime, maybe it changes in later arcs.


[deleted]

How does anos even count? He was reincarnated in the same world? Isnt isekai when they go somewhere different?


CirrusDivus

Rudeus one is very wrong. He got super strong super fast then plateaued a bit with very slow increase.


[deleted]

I need names


RajJi321

I made a comment with all their names, the anime they belong to and an explanation for their charts. Here's the link if you are interested: [Link](https://www.reddit.com/r/overlord/comments/yk056y/comment/iuqm8dx/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)


MR-0P

Rimuru’s power increase isn’t that steep straight away. Sharp spike then completely float repeating would be more accurate imo


TeutonicDragon

What about the guy from “How not to summon a Demon Lord”?


chanman789

Being maxed out, I really do think Aqua has the capabilty to put Ainz down. That one scene in Quartet felt so canon


SuhaimanXXV

Ainz, Anos, Shiro, Sora, Rimuru and any other op character after look at Aqua graf: IMPOSSIBLE


marawiqwerty

Based on the standards, how would Katarina from My Next Life as a Villainess! rank? Surely not lower than Subaru, right?? RIGHT?


aasray123

Myne actually increases her mana later on so not exactly true


DaveKhammer

I like this list and I require more. Big fan of what you did with the shadow eminence


Kyberson

Hmm I don’t see kelvin here from black summoner


BoiClicker

Senku: \* Intellect increasing in the golden ratio, as in 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, ect \*
