13 Great New Fantasy Manga You Should Be Reading Now

Fantasy is one of the biggest genres of manga these days, especially with how beloved Isekai series are. But if you are looking for a new series to delve into, I have your back with the 13 best new fantasy manga series you should take a look at right now.

1. Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End

This stunning, emotional series explores what happens to a long-living mage well after her and her companions save the world. It’s stunning and goes over the passage of time, since Frieren is an elf and she’s prone to outliving her companions. Up through volume 12 is available now, and each one costs $11.99.

2. Magilumiere Magical Girls Inc.

This is the time to get into this magical girl series early on, as I fully expect it to be the next huge series. It follows a fascinating look at magical girls fighting for modern day-style corporations. Viz Media is handling it, and volume 4 will come out for $14.99 in October 2024.

3. A Journey Through Another World: Raising Kids While Adventuring

A dash of Spy x Family comes into this series about a man exploring another world alongside two adorable twins he adopts. It’s very family friendly and wholesome, as well as plays with the concepts of isekai series. Only the first volume is available in English so far.

4. A Gatherer’s Adventure in Isekai

This is a pretty standard isekai adventure, but it stands out due to the fun protagonist and adorable dragon sidekick companion he has. Think of it as sometimes being a bit casual and relaxed as you go through it! The first volume is out for $7.58.

5. Re:Monster

This isekai series follows a man reborn as a goblin who is able to consume other monsters in the fantasy world to gain their powers. Like That Time I Reincarnated as a Slime? This might be a good series to follow that! Seven Seas resulted up through volume 9 in English so far, and each one is $13.99.

6. Star Wars: The High Republic – The Edge of Balance

This surprising manga adaptation of Star Wars focuses on this high fantasy era of the Republic in which a young Jedi helps with a new temple. It’s a fantastic take on established ideas. Three volumes of this Viz Media series are out now, and they cost $14.99 each.

7. From Maid to Mother

This isekai focuses on a high school girl who becomes a maid in a fantasy world and eventually has to raise the royal palace’s wizard’s step-daughter. It leads to some fun and heartwarming antics. One volume is out digitally now for $7.58.

8. The Child Loved by God

Unlike most isekai, this guy is reincarnated into a fantasy world as the grandson of the king and loved by everyone, including God. The series has a much more lighthearted approach. If other isekai stories traumatized you by how harsh they are, this will help you recover. Volume 1 is available for $7.52.

9. Witch Hat Atelier

This fantasy manga series is going to be everywhere soon, thanks to an anime adaptation. It follows a girl with a dream of becoming a witch, despite her inability to use magic like everyone else. It’s up to volume 12 in English now, with each one costing $12.99.

10. I Aim for a Relaxed Life in Another World With the Fluffies!

This more relaxing fantasy manga series follows an overworked guy who reincarnates in a fantasy world and, in a relatable manner, just wants to spend time with fluffy creatures. Volume 1 is available digitally for $7.52.

11. The Faraway Paladin

This isekai has such a different vibe to others. A man with a pretty unsubstantial life reincarnates in a fantasy world, raised in a necropolis by some of the most unlikely parents, like a skeleton. The first volume is out, and it costs $8.99.

12. The Weakest Tamer Began a Journey to Pick Up Trash

The light novel has been around for a bit, but there is now a manga version of this story about a girl who is only able to tame the lowest of slimes and their adorable adventure together. You can get up through volume 5 now for $13.99 each.

13. My Role as the Villainess Is Over

This unique fantasy story centers on a woman who is forced to play the role of the villainess in a fantasy world. But once her evil job is done, this manga picks up as she finds a new life as a castle maid. The first volume is available digitally for $7.58.
