20 [Similar Anime] Like Ascendance of a Bookworm

Power of knowledge. Even in a world distant to the current time. Stories Dr Stone and Ascendance of a Bookworm show what the power of knowledge can give to people who use such information well.

The premise of an "encyclopedia"-like brainiac protagonist is remarkably similar in both shows. Honzuki no Gekokujou, belonging firmly to the Seinen genre, is more melodramatic and drama-driven in general whereas Dr.stone, leaning more towards shounen, is more upbeat and exaggerated with supporting drama and action elements. As an imperfect analogy HnG is the Seinen counterpart of Dr. Stone and so should appeal to fans of Dr.Stone that also enjoy Seinen.

Are you tired of seeing isekai that feature some virgin NEET on his adventure to defeat the demon king boss guy or whatever alongside girls whose only purpose is ecchi fanservice?

A large emphasis of both shows is placed on the mercantile aspect of medieval life. The main difference comes in the roles of the characters. In Spice and Wolf, the protagonists simply transport the goods, while in Bookworm, they actually produce the goods. Both have a great deal of adventure, but in different ways. While Lawrence and Holo travel the lands in Spice and Wolf, the protagonists of Bookworm, Main and Lutz, rarely leave town, with the forest outside the city being a journey in and of itself. It doesn't stop the viewer from feeling like they're on an adventure anyway though, as Main is read more

Similar vibes. I would classify them as the same 'type' of isekai. The MC travels to another world and, using his/her skills from our world, improves or better the new world.

both have adult professional MC's isekai (one a computer programmer the other a librarian ) by reincarnation that are placed in the bodies of children. both MC are driven by their passion one mecha the other books. both are fairly laid back anime.

The main characters of both shows (Latina and Myne) are young, cute girls who are out of place in the setting of the story. While Latina's personality is sweeter and quieter than Myne's with her tendency to leap before looking and her occasional pouting, they share a determination for their goals. The shows are set in Middle Ages inspired, pseudo-European worlds with magic, and both girls have protective family and friend characters around them. There are some similarly-themed tensions (don't want to give any spoilers), and overall these are light viewing experiences w/ some heartfelt moments and comedy.

An anomaly child. Ascendance of a Bookworm and Wolf Children both follow anomalies in their relative world and how they stand out from the rest, which causes these characters to learn about the restrictions these worlds have upon them.

You want a good LN adaption with a female protagonist? This is for you.

I believe that they are both similar because 1) the setting is on a fantasy world even though Majo no Tabitabi is not an isekai. 2) both MCs are very knowledgable and they both love books 3) We can see that they both a loving family. Lastly, it premieres in Muse Asia. Both Mcs are set to their Goals and they are not giving up. The source materials of these shows are highly rated tankobons.

Unexpected upbringing. Maquia: When the Promised Flower Blooms and Ascendance of a Bookworm both follow protagonists who end up in a family they truly do not belong with. However, as time goes forth, these protagonists end up finding their way into a place in the family.

Both mcs are female, both of them are in a fantasy world shirayuki is not an isekai however. while honzukismc aspire to be a librarian and make books, shirayuki aspires to be a physician (think herbal medicine etc) . overall mood of series is similar

SSY and Ascendance of a Bookworm Both female protagonist in each series are intelligent and have a strong passion and interest of their own. They work hard towards their goal in mind and overall gave me similar kind of feeling. If you want to watch something a little bit more lighthearted than "shinsekai yori",

The main characters channel their passion and energy into making books - although while Honzuki is about books in general, Fune wo Amu is about dictionaries specifically. The slow pace draws viewers into the story, and amid the slow process of book-making, the protagonists build interesting relationships with those around them.

Both have a passionate woman protagonist. Myne is passionate about books, Arte is about art.

Each entertain with drama and comedy relief, while also surrounding its story's respective characters and plot points among microeconomic concepts, game theory, innovation, or entrepreneurship, in a pre-Renaissance European-type setting. Dialogue-heavy and rich in commentary about human psychology, the two anime offer a lot of substance in terms of character interaction, and will please those who muster the patience for slow-burning (but ultimately rewarding) productions.

-Both feature protagonists thrust into a world in which they must use their specialized skills from Earth (survival tactics vs book/craft knowledge) to survive
-Both feature somewhat younger child characters as the protagonist
-Both are a little slower paced but give a lot of detail and attention to their respective fantasy worlds
-Both are a little hampered by lower production values, but make up for it in their writing
-Both protagonists have blue hair (almost entirely inconsequential but a little funny nontheless)

Much like Yang's obsession with history books, Myne is similarly obsessed with reading in general, and that drives them to accomplish many other things.

Both fun isekais that avoided being generic and had very well developed characters and plot.
