Many elements converge to make a standout anime, especially when there are already so many well-loved classics and popular series. Quality storytelling, voice actors, and character arcs are crucial. Animation quality can really make or break a good anime; if it's beautiful and smooth it makes it all the more desirable to pick up.

Committing to an anime series with clunky animation can be frustrating. Some CGI animation can truly be an eyesore if not done well. Animators get really creative with isekai anime, especially since 2020. The animation is creative and gorgeous, matching the tone and reinforcing the subgenre of new release isekai.
