Anime is slowly moving away from the isekai genre.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT A fairly popular anime that’s currently airing on Netflix is Studio Trigger’s Delicious in Dungeon. The anime follows protagonist Laios and his party of adventurers as they traverse a dungeon to revive Laios’ sister after she's eaten by a terrifying red dragon, and to survive the dungeon with limited funds.
The isekai genre doesn’t appear to be going away anytime soon, but Delicious in Dungeon does show a newfound willingness not to be over reliant on it. Delicious in Dungeon’s stellar worldbuilding goes beyond the biology of the monsters, of course. Classic fantasy monsters like basilisks, golems, and undines are given unique and often funny twists on their standard depictions, and Delicious in Dungeon even adds a political angle to the story through race relations and having characters try and control the dungeon.
