Anime Like The Daily Life Of An Immortal King
So, you've binged The Daily Life of the Immortal King and now you're staring at your screen, feeling that void only more anime can fill? Don't worry, friend, we've all been there! The blend of overpowered main characters, school life shenanigans, and a dash of the supernatural is a recipe for addiction. Let's dive into some anime that'll give you that same awesome feeling.
OP Main Character Alert!
If it's the sheer, ridiculous power of Wang Ling that hooked you, then buckle up. We're going for anime with protagonists who could probably destroy planets before breakfast.
One-Punch Man: The Ultimate Power Trip
Seriously, if you haven't seen One-Punch Man, stop reading right now and go watch it. Saitama, our bald-headed hero, defeats every enemy with, you guessed it, one punch!
Must Read
The humor comes from his utter boredom and the sheer ridiculousness of the monsters he faces. Think Wang Ling hiding his power, but with a lot more punching and a lot less sleep deprivation.
Mob Psycho 100: Psychic Powers and Emotional Growth
Mob Psycho 100 is another gem featuring a ridiculously powerful psychic, Shigeo "Mob" Kageyama. But unlike Wang Ling who’s trying to hide his powers, Mob is trying to control his, which is a whole different kind of chaos.
It’s got stunning animation, hilarious side characters, and a surprising amount of heart. Plus, the battles are visually mind-blowing.
School Life and Supernatural Silliness
Maybe it's the combination of everyday school life with the fantastical elements that you enjoy. Well, good news! This is a very popular sub-genre.
My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU: Witty and Cynical School Life
Okay, this one isn’t about superpowers, but hear me out! Hachiman Hikigaya, the cynical loner, is forced to join the Service Club, where he helps other students with their problems. It might sound mundane, but the dialogue is sharp, the characters are surprisingly deep, and the humor is on point.
It's a different flavor of school life, but it scratches that "slice of life with a twist" itch.
The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.: Another Overpowered Student
If you like your psychic powers served with a side of deadpan humor, you'll love The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.. Kusuo Saiki is another impossibly powerful psychic who just wants to live a normal life, which is, of course, impossible.
It's fast-paced, joke-filled, and utterly hilarious. Prepare to laugh until your sides hurt.
Hidden Gems and Honorable Mentions
Need even more? I hear you! Here are a couple extra suggestions for your viewing pleasure:
Cautious Hero: The Hero Is Overpowered but Overly Cautious
This one is a parody of the isekai genre, where heroes are summoned to another world. Seiya Ryuuguuin, our hero, is ridiculously overpowered...but also incredibly cautious. He levels up way too much, buys way too many potions, and generally overprepares for everything. It’s comedy gold.
Haven't You Heard? I'm Sakamoto
Sakamoto is the epitome of cool. Everything he does is effortlessly stylish and attracts the attention of everyone around him, much to the annoyance of his classmates. It's absurd, hilarious, and strangely captivating.
Pro-Tip: Don’t be afraid to explore different genres! You might find your next favorite anime in a place you least expect.
So there you have it! A handful of anime to fill that The Daily Life of the Immortal King-shaped hole in your heart. Happy watching!
