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.

Here I put some of the romance manhwas that I love and some even have a few similarities, types like Historical (Duke/Duchess, Prince/Princess, Empress/Emperor, King/Queen, Lady), Villainess/Villains, Family, Magic, and a few modern ones...

(Copy n pasted throughout all my yandere stacks)
This list includes everything from mushy cutesy to ‘oh god I'm on a watchlist now’ so scroll with precaution.

There are two requirements for this list:
-The yandere needs to take up ATLEAST 1/5 screentime (if they don't take up half then ill put this note: yandere is a side character)
-no porn unless its gore or psychological horror

I've checked everything so even if the yandereness doesn't show at first trust that it's coming.

The hold this Genre has on me is...

Immense to say the least.

Working on reading at least one chapter from everything in the 'villainess' Theme on MAL (plus ones that arent in that theme but I think still count) minus the novels and porn then putting my favs in here

Psychos, yanderes, fishy characters... or just some super weirdos.

💭 This is ranked (as much as possible) by the male white-haired character's level of "male leadness" and since this is more or less a stack of romance manhwas, the criteria we're going to go with is that they should be the main love interest or endgame for the female lead.
💭 Therefore, there will actually be manhwas listed here that features the white-haired character as a second/third/etc. lead, support role, or in general just doesn't apply to the criteria we're following above. Don't worry as I'll be very specific about it as possible to prepare you for the heartbreak.
💭 The MLs' name would also be mentioned. The manhwa's synopsis would also be added right after so if you don't want to see any of that, I would recommend switching to tile/seasonal view.

[ above all else,, i really just need a compilation list of white-haired male leads for research purposes and not because i have a personal bias for silver mls (i do), 'tis all :> pls ignore me thank u (o_ _)ﾉ彡☆ ]

🤍 - I deeply recommend reading it

A collection of manhwas where the male lead is a wizard / mage / magician / master of the tower. I tried very hard to find ones that are actually magicians and not royalty doing magic on the side. Mostly otome isekai.

Not in the myanimelist database: Yandere Ouji ga Shachiku Onna no Watashi o Hanasanai

Female characters that possess mental fortitude and don't break under pressure. They must have great resilience in the face of difficult or dangerous situations or even tragedy. They don't have to be super smart or geniuses, mental fortitude/stoicism is what matters. Preferably physical strength isn't their main characteristic but their mental fortitude.

For Physically Strong Women in Manga: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/39375

The long-haired character must be the main love interest. Any hair color is okay. This is limited to pseudo-European settings since long-haired MLs are fairly common in Korea/China/Japan-inspired pseudo-historical series. As such, murim is also excluded.

The character should have long hair for the majority (>50%) of the series, so having it cut for a short time is okay. However, if they cut it at the beginning and it remains short, then they won't be included.

Of course, I will not be including any series where the love interest is a spoiler. The male lead should be obvious based on promotional artwork/covers/synopsis. Also, if there are multiple love interests, but all of them have long hair, then that also gets a pass.
