It depends as you might be looking at the low hanging fruit Isakai area than the ones that stand out more. I'm reading a lot of Manga and Manwha nowadays and Anime is at least 1-2 years behind that and that trend for the 'weak MCs that have no backbone' has run out and we've gotten more what I like to call 'the quiet kid MC Isakai'
By that I mean they're actually nearly psychopaths that have a 'well you tried to kill me so fuck you' mentality. Current one I can think of is Failure Frame: I became the strongest and Annihilated Everything which I've also read and by end of episode one he's gone full no mercy and pretends to be a weak MC just to lower guard and mercilessly kill someone.
If you don't want to deal with that at all you're best off with Manga and Manwha at the moment as they'll eventually get adapted as Omniscient Readers Viewpoint is getting an adaptation so it'll only be a matter of time till Mercenary Enrolment/Teenage Mercenary gets an adaptation plus Season 2 of Solo Levelling is coming soon.
It does really depend on the writing quality of the authors, I've seen so many that have a good premise go to shit because they just don't make it interesting enough.
While I've seen literal meme shows keep my interest because of the writing quality, like I'm enjoying My Deer Friend Nokotan just because both the author and studio KNEW which direction to take the show.
