After dying of an illness, Machio Hiraku is given the opportunity to reincarnate into another world.
The god grants him a healthy body and his wish to live peacefully. Machio also asks if he can have a talent for agriculture in hopes that he can live a more fulfilling life.
The god grants him all this as well as the ability to summon a farming tool that can turn into any agricultural tool he needs, including one that makes any seeds he can think of.
Machio is sent in the middle of a forest full of dangerous creatures. Without any civilization in sight, he makes his own small farm that slowly accumulates residents that wander the woods.
Farming Life in Another World is peak wish fulfillment isekai, but it is actually just so damn chill and fun to watch. If you are looking for more anime recommendations like Farming Life in Another World, head on down below.
Anime Like Farming Life in Another World
For Fans of Farming!
I’ve Somehow Gotten Stronger When I Improved My Farm-Related Skills
Al Wayne is a passionate farmer who spends his days tending his fields and occasionally helping his friends. However, in doing so, he ended up maxing out his level and integrating his farming skills into that, he becomes stronger than even legendary heroes.
Unfortunately, his immense power has caught the eye of the nation’s princess who gives him a large swathe of land in return for becoming an adventurer to help the nation.
Of all the anime like Farming Life in Another World, I’ve Somehow Gotten Stronger When I Improved My Farm-Related Skills is the most similar. Both anime series center around good-natured farmers who have a harem of interested girls around them.
Their farming skills also translate to being pretty good in battle as well, but fighting is more of a common occurrence in I’ve Somehow Gotten Stronger When I Improved My Farm-Related Skills and it is often more grand.
Essentially, the major difference is that I’ve Somehow Gotten Stronger When I Improved My Farm-Related Skills is not an isekai anime and his harem is more argumentative with each other than the wholesome happy farm life experience that is Farming Life in Another World.
Silver Spoon
Yuugo Hachiken is a hard-working, studious student, but he is tired of trying to live up to the academic expectations that are placed on him. So when it comes time to go to high school, he enrolls in the Ooezo Agricultural High School in Hokkaido.
Being so clever, he thinks he will excel in the institution, but soon learns that farming is much harder work, both physically and emotionally, more so than he expected.
While Farming Life in Another World has a few little knowledge bombs, you can’t exactly call it an educational experience. However, if you enjoy farming and do wish to learn more about it in a modern setting with an interesting cast of characters, then Silver Spoon is for you.
Silver Spoon is very much a school life anime, but that school is all about agriculture. It goes to great lengths to highlight the realities of more modern farmers.
Nourin
Kousaku Hata, a student at an agricultural school, loves ones idol in particular – Yuka Kusakabe. On the day she announces her retirement, he is devastated, at least until he finds out that she transferred to his school.
Although she has a completely different personality than on stage, she is willing to work hard to learn, with Kousaku right at her side.
Nourin is more akin to the aforementioned Silver Spoon in that it is also about a farming school in modern times. However, it lacks the same focus on education.
Instead, Nourin, like Farming Life in Another World, has a bigger focus on the characters, though with just a touch more drama and less wholesome co-existence.
Maoyu – Archenemy and Hero
After fifteen years of warfare with the demon world, the Hero is unsatisfied with their advance and rushes forward to the Demon Queens Castle. There he not only finds a beautiful woman that is the queen, but she needs his help.
To his surprise, she offers a way to not only help his country, but hers as well. Together, they join forces to make that dream a reality.
You would not think it based on Maoyu’s synopsis, but the anime is actually often very focused on agriculture.
Like Farming Life in Another World, Maoyu is about developing new farming practices to help a nation thrive and solve a food crisis caused by war (and a lack of crop rotation).
Maoyu isn’t solely based on farming. It also focuses itself on economic rehabilitation, ending a war without decimating one side, and it is all served up with a side of cute romance.
Maoyu is a bit more complex than Farming Life in Another World, but just as wholesome.
For Fans of Living the Simple Life With Cute Girls
Banished From The Hero’s Party, I Decided To Live A Quiet Life In The Countryside
Red was once the member of a hero’s party that sought to destroy the Demon Lord Taraxon. However, while Red was powerful at first, his companions soon eclipsed him, and thus, pushed him out of the party.
Hoping for a more laid-back life, he moves to the country with a dream to start an apothecary. He hopes to keep his past as an adventurer a secret, but that becomes increasingly more difficult when an adventurer named Rit from his past asks to move in with him.
While Banished from the Hero’s Party is not an isekai anime, both anime follow characters who lived a rather stressful life leaving that behind for one reason or another to live more simply.
In Farming Life in Another World, he starts a farm and attracts a harem. In Banished From the Hero’s Party, he is attempting to start a business and lives with a clingy fellow adventurer.
Both anime series are peaceful and wholesome fantasy anime that aren’t about grand adventures, but rather just living a life that the characters can be happy with.
Chillin’ in My 30s after Getting Fired from the Demon King’s Army
Dariel is a dark soldier in the Demon King’s army – or rather, he was. After the son of the previous demon general took over, he swiftly fired Dariel for a lack of power and supposed usefulness.
Set adrift, Dariel rescues a girl from a monster in the woods and she takes him to her village. There, he discovers that he wasn’t actually a demon, but is a human – and an incredibly powerful one.
Now, he pays the village back for all their kindness by helping them out.
Like Nourin was to Silver Spoon, so too is Chillin’ in My 30’s to Banished from the Hero’s Party. It is really the same thing with very small differences, so of course it is also similar to Farming Life in Another World.
Like Farming Life in Another World, Chillin’ in My 30’s embraces the busty nature of the women around the good-natured and strong main character without being ecchi about it.
Chillin’ in My 30’s is, however, more of an action series. Although, because he is quite strong, the action is often over pretty quickly.
By The Grace of the Gods
After leading a miserable life, Ryouma Takebayashi passes away at age 39.
Three deities, taking pity on him, reincarnate him into a fantasy world with an aptitude for magic, telling him to enjoy life and that they will always watch out for him.
With his newfound existence, he spends it studying slimes, amassing a slime army, and learning some magic, but he misses humanity. Being persuaded to join a group of travelers, Ryouma’s new world opens up for him.
At a glance, By the Grace of the Gods with its young main character and lack of attractive harem doesn’t seem like it has a lot in common with Farming Life in Another World. However, both series are soothing, wholesome isekai about an overworked man getting a new shot at life in another world.
Instead of grand adventure, they choose to spend their time pursuing a life that makes them happy. In Farming Life in Another World, that life is farming with his harem. In By the Grace of the Gods, that life is taming slimes and them starting a laundry business.
Despite the main characters frequently surrounded by cute girls, neither show is a romance. However, By the Grace of the Gods also isn’t a harem either.
For Fans of Soothing Low Action Fantasy
Management of a Novice Alchemist
After her parent’s death, young Sarasa was inspired to become an alchemist and graduated from the Royal Alchemist Academy.
Sacrificing friendships for hard work, she graduates with top marks and under the apprenticeship of a master alchemist.
This master helps her get set up with her first alchemy shop. It is in the middle of nowhere, but surrounded by top-notch alchemy ingredients.
While starting up a new shop is hard work, Sarasa is no stranger to working hard for her dreams.
Despite Management of a Novice Alchemist not being an isekai, it still has a similar sort of story. Both Management of a Novice Alchemist and Farming Life in Another World follow people who essentially set up shop in the middle of a forest.
While there are moments of action in both shows, they don’t last very long. Instead, the focus is more about their new life and setting up a thriving business. However, Management of a Novice Alchemist is more of a struggle.
Parallel World Pharmacy
After dedicating himself to creating medicines as a pharmacist, Kani Yakutani works himself to death at the age of 31.
He awakens in the form of a ten-year-old boy that has been struck by lightning. He discovers that he is the son of a prestigious family as well the host to the guardian deity of medicine. This allows him to immediately diagnose illnesses in others.
While this is a miraculous ability, he discovers the state of medicine in this world is primitive and takes up his previous profession from his past life as a pharmacist once again.
Both Farming Life in Another World and Parallel World Pharmacy are isekai anime that aren’t actually about fighting. Instead, they are about characters indulging their passion with very specific magic and turning that into a business.
While Parallel World Pharmacy has the look of a harem show, it is actually surprisingly dedicated to world building and plot.
Cheat Pharmacist’s Slow Life – Making a Drugstore in Another World
Formerly a corporate slave, Reiji was transported to another world. Using his skills, he started making potions that were effective, and most importantly, didn’t taste like absolute garbage.
Now, Reiji lives a slow life on the outskirts of a village by making potions and running a pharmacy.
Both Cheat Pharmacist and Farming Life in Another World are soothing isekai anime about main characters that don’t really go on adventures, but instead start working in a specific trade.
While Farming Life in Another World has an ultra-sized harem, Cheat Pharmacist has a much smaller one, but isn’t very ecchi.
If you are looking for a soothing comedy isekai anime, both series are pretty great at that. What Farming Life in Another World has in farm innovations, Cheat Pharmacist has in potion innovations.
