Otome Isekai is a sub-genre of Isekai where the main character(s) are in some way transported to another world that resembles an otome game...

It is essentially the girly version of the modern shounen isekai that goes in the direction of female wish fulfillment. Instead of stuck in an action game, she's stuck in a romance novel or romance game. It is almost always "died and reborn there" rather than the sort of "stuck" we see in Sword Art Online or the "teleported" we saw in the 90s.

—r/OtomeIsekai (credit to definition)

A collection of romantic fantasies set in the European Middle Ages.

Most of these stories are centred around strong female leads who are reincarnated or isekai’ed into another realm filled with magic.

Some of these stories such as ‘My Gently Raised Beast’ or ‘I Stan the Prince’ take a refreshing diverge from the rest as they do not include reincarnation or isekai and instead focus upon the time period or fantasy elements. Highly recommend these if you can’t tell ^^

What is Otome Isekai?
“The short answer is that Otome isekai is a sub-genre of Isekai where the main characters are in some way transported to another world that resembles an otome game.” - r/Otomeisekai

Of course, there’s more than that. Otome Isekai (OI) tend to revolve around some variation of: “Female Leading character (FL) dying and reincarnating inside a romantic game or novel, usually as Villainess or side character, and now she must do whatever the plot demands this time to survive, usually helping or being helped by the Male Lead (ML), who doubles as the romantic interest.

It’s a genre that has a lot of attention nowadays, so I made this list for those wanting to see what the hype is about without having to read the lesser good ones (since this genre has A LOT of entries, a lot of them being at best boring and at worst actually problematic or screwed up *cough cough On the Emperor’s lap cough cough* ).

I tried my best to include some variation because at the end of the day this genre is very trope-y and you’ll probably start to guess a lot of what happens in any OI if you get caught up with like,, two of these.

I also included the genres (note, ALL of these have Rofan - Romance Fantasy in them because that’s like,, the point of this genre) and notes so you can pick what you’re interested in.

If you do get into this genre and now want to find memes and stuff about this, I recommend r/OtomeIsekai (I swear I’m not a mod there or anything) fun place and good to be able to rant or gush about any OI.)

As for where to read these? Well, you could purchase them from sites like Tapas, read them mostly for free if you're lucky on Webtoon, or use places like Batto or Mangapill if that’s not an option for you.

This is a collection of Otome romance stories which have fantasy and supernatural elements.

manhwa about main character who reverse time or reincarnation to novel/game/ other character (PART 3)

Notes: I have definitely watched/read the anime/manga that I give a rating
I will not give a rating below 5, Rating 5 for me = 1, >8 = recommended
if it's not good for me, the status "Dropped" and no rating
