The Autumn 2024 isekai anime The shows are slowly coming to the end of their runs, and they've been a mixed bag. Still, any discussion of quality aside, the lineup is commendable for offering a relatively diverse range of stories. With a good mix of sequels and newcomers, this season features power fantasy, villain stories, comedy, reverse isekai and Zero again.
The genre will always love its overpowered leads, and Fall 2024 delivers on that front. While most of the isekai heroes of the quarter pack a punch, at least in the context of their universe, some are more powerful than others. So, let's go through Fall 2024's OP isekai anime MCs.
Here are some standards, notes, and things to keep in mind:
- Each universe has its own laws that cannot be directly compared
Ranking is based on how powerful the hero appears within his world
. - Based on the anime only, not the source material.
-

On Dragon Ball Day
Can be seen as an isekai story; However, Goku will not be included as that would be a stretch. - Also, spoiler alert.

In a refreshing change of pace, very few Fall 2024 isekai anime make their protagonists work to their strengths, and I will go down in history as a villainAlicia is arguably the best example. Covering nearly a decade of her life, the anime chronicles the girl's development in terms of her physical and magical abilities.

A well-rounded warrior who builds on past life experiences
Seirei Gensouki: Spirit History
- Studio
- TMS Entertainment
- based on
- Novels and Light Novels
- the creator
- Yuri Kitayama
Seirei Gensouki: Spirit History' Rio is hard to pin down in terms of strength, mostly because he didn't do much in Season 2. He's had a few moments to showcase his superior martial arts and affinity for magic, but he's pretty tame. And generally tries to avoid attracting too much attention.
Still, Ryo is undeniably powerful, and his strength is based on experience and talent accumulated over many lives. While he can fight hand to hand on his own, his main asset is his connection with Spirit, allowing him to use Spirit Arts.
3 Hakuto Kunai (Demon Lord, Retry! R)
Super Ultimate Final Boss

- based on
- Novels and Light Novels

- Kuron Kanzaki
Demon Lord, try again! R Quite possibly the most forgettable isekai anime of Fall 2024, along with being a pretty weak follow up to the first season. Ultimately, the quality of the show doesn't really matter in this discussion, even if the poor production means that most of Hakuto's OP performances are undermined by poor animation and scattershot storytelling.

When his game is about to close, Akira suddenly finds himself in the same world as his character, Hakuto Kunai. Designed to be the ultimate boss, Hakuto's superpowered nature is specifically part of his in-universe lore, essentially acting as a one-man. final fantasy Superboss. Now, to be fair, Hakuto's power is somewhat restricted by the presence of Akira, who generally tries to stay in control and not lose himself in the character's fearless-like power.

- Daigo Murasaki
Demon Lord 2099 A stealth is the reverse isekai. Centuries after being vanquished by the hero, the demon lord Weltol is resurrected, only to discover that his world, Alneth, merged with Earth some 50 years before his resurrection. As a result, he wakes up in a cyberpunk city built around science that was designed to bridge the power gap that separates the powerful and the immortals.
Importantly, his power is directly related to how much people trust him, with Veltol's lack of stature weakening him. To combat this weakness, Demon Lord (essentially) becomes a YouTuber, and he quickly amasses a large following that allows him to regain some of his power.
The idea of streaming to get stronger may seem silly, but Demon Lord 2099 It works. Veltol rediscovers his former glory very quickly, and he gradually becomes powerful enough to destroy high-end mechs. Eventually, his fame becomes so great that he manages to transform into his second form, which is the funny OP. His abilities are limitless, and he's pretty much immortal (at one point, he loses his head and treats it as a minor inconvenience).

Hajime is Sheetal's avatar. Quiet, intelligent, and surrounded by all the girls, Arifuretta's protagonist is a near-unstoppable juggernaut, and the anime has only covered half of his journey. Despite having a ways to go before reaching his final form, Hajime is the definition of a broken OP MC, albeit one that still maintains enough internal logic to entertain.
In his current state, he can use the Synergist class's 'transmute skill' to produce all sorts of incredible tools and magical weapons (and Hajime loves his guns). While sometimes assuming a supporting role, which he can do due to his powerful allies, Hajime is the brains behind each operation. When he needs to engage directly, he can one-shoot multiple enemies. In Season 3, he brought down the Empire, and that wasn't even his most impressive feat.
