Didn't El-Hazard have two moons? It also wasn't particularly Euro in its aesthetic, more middle eastern.
Not isekai but Goblin Slayer has two moons, a green one and a red one.
Strange Dawn might be what you're looking for.
What I may really like is an isekai where there's no civilization in the other world - they're like "Stone Age" aliens. Or an isekai where the aliens are technologically ahead of Earthlings and have space travel.

I imagine there's also "reverse isekai", where one from some fantastical world turns up in modern Japan.

I’m half convinced that this manga is basically Katekyō Hitman Reborn! if it did not have superheroes

I’d add more shots of the manga, but this one so far reminds me of what school life fighting/shōunen is supposed to be:

I remember reading this awhile ago, wasn't this the one where the MC gets cursed (blessed?) with the power to control monsters via some onmyōji stuff and that somehow translated to the modern day as delinquent girls falling in love with him.
Can't remember where or why I dropped it but I remember an interesting dynamic with some girls where the less bad they became the less they loved the MC and vice versa.
 
There's a caveman isekai called Sousei no Taiga, but I haven't read much of it. Would Dr. Stone count?

I'd personally would like more space isekai, the only one I've read recently is Reborn as a Space Mercenary.
I don't think Dr. Stone counts since the characters technically remain in the same world.
 
I just can't believe someone did the

decades ago and only now people can find it.

It is indeed that. I just read through the entire thing the last couple of days, really good stuff. Though I picked a hell of a time to catch up, with that particular cliffhanger.
 
That list is hilariously incomplete, even Jahy from current season isn't on it, much less important anime like Urusei Yatsura.
Anime-Planet's community isn't that big compared to AniDB (I think) and MAL, and they might not know what's not been tagged and such. Just something to give a rough estimate of what's out there.
 
Urusei Yatsura.
Now that's a series I like. I like the old manga over the old anime.

fun fact: In the old VIZ translation, they retconned so instead of being set around 1980, it's set in the '90s. Also that part where Lum and Ataru go on a date to the pool and other places is on July 8th, 1979.

(even the retconned time is quite awhile ago now)

Rumiko Takahashi's early works are some of the best. I don't care much for Inuyasha but love Urusei Yatsura and Maison Ikkoku.
 
We need another season of Asobi Asobase. I finally got around to reading the manga and found that the anime is a nearly 1:1 translation of it, from the jokes, dialogue, and plots to the art style. The manga's still going strong and could support more seasons.
