The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.

If you’re looking for something light and comedic, The Disastrous Life of Saiki K is the way to go. The story revolves around Kusuo Saiki, a high school student who possesses a seemingly endless list of psychic powers. However, he just wants to live a normal life and hides his powers from everyone except his family. Unfortunately, he’s put in various situations where he has to secretly use his powers, leading to a lot of hilarious moments in the series. Unlike characters who want to use their powers for the greater good, Saiki mainly just wants to catch a break.

The Disastrous Life of Saiki K is streaming on Netflix.

Tsukimichi: Moonlit Fantasy

Tsukimichi: Moonlit Fantasy follows Makoto Misumi, who realizes how overpowered he is at the beginning of the series. Makoto’s initially sent to the Goddess’ World to become a hero, but the goddess finds him ugly and sends him to the Wasteland. However, Makoto has the blessing of Tsukuyomi, another god. Makoto discovers in this new world that he’s extremely powerful, and ends up creating a community where various creatures can peacefully coexist. Isekai fans might want to check this series out.

Tsukimichi: Moonlit Fantasy is streaming on Crunchyroll and Max.

Mob Psycho 100

Shigeo Kageyama, known as Mob, is a seemingly average middle school student — but he actually possesses incredible psychic powers. To keep his powers in check, Mob trains under Reigen Arataka, a self-proclaimed psychic. Mob just wants to live a regular life, but some situations he gets into cause emotional distress, making his powers potentially dangerous. While there’s a lot of action happening in the series, the show is wholesome — you can’t help but root for Mob’s character development throughout the seasons.

Mob Psycho 100 is streaming on Crunchyroll and Hulu.

One-Punch Man

Imagine getting so bored of life because you’re too strong. This is basically the premise of One-Punch Man, which is also a comedic take on the superhero genre. The story follows Saitama, a hero who after training for three years, became strong enough to defeat his enemies with just one punch. He also ends up mentoring Genos, a cyborg looking for revenge. The show has a lot of funny moments and interesting characters. One-Punch Man and Mob Psycho 100 have the same creator, so if you’ve seen either one, then you’ll probably enjoy both series.

One-Punch Man is streaming on Crunchyroll, Hulu, and Netflix.

Overlord

On the surface, Overlord might seem like a typical isekai story. However, what’s fun with Overlord is that the main character is considered a villain. He’s trying to take over the world, after all. The series follows a player, Momonga, who stays logged in the game until its end. However, the game doesn’t shut down and the NPCs are suddenly living, breathing creatures. Momonga takes the name Ainz Ooal Gown and tries to figure out what happened all while exploring the world and taking over territories.

Overlord Seasons 2 to 4 is streaming on Crunchyroll. Meanwhile, the first two seasons are on Hulu.
