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...

Stories where the main character rebuilds their life (and sometimes gets revenge) after being abandoned/sold off/abused, often by their family.

Some common tropes:
- sold off in marriage in place of favorite child
- going back in time following a betrayal that resulted in death
- heroine//villainess reversal


Enjoy!

Don't let their cotton candy hair fool you! Despite their clumsy antics and second-hand embarrassing decisions, this FL might just be the type you don't want to mess with.
