OVERVIEW

A community for Otome Isekai series, the female-oriented genre where the main character is transported to an otome-game like world.

Kept the name so people looking for an alternative to r/OtomeIsekai could easily find it, but added the "Plus" to reflect that the genre has evolved to include adjacent series.

I'm happy to hand over control if someone else wants to take over.


GUIDELINES

Open to feedback on this section. If this ends up taking off then maybe the definition of OI and discussion will need to be stricter. Until then, I don't think there's a need to feel restricted by technicalities.


EXAMPLES

Female main character isekais into an otome game as a villainess

Male main character's commentary on the female lead who isekai'ed as the villainess

Added this to point out that the main character (MC) does not necessarily need to be a woman, but if the MC is not a woman, it'll generally need more OI setting pieces to qualify as an OI.

Female main character isekais into the world of a (non-otome game) fantasy book she read

None of the characters are isekai'ed but the setting is otome-esque and one of the female main characters is a villainess


Icon: The One Within the Villainess because Remilia is unrivaled

Banner: My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! because it's a literal otome isekai

I cracked up when I read that.

The whole interaction between him and his aide was really funny. I cracked at

How dare he outshine my daughter

part. I'm going to miss this series terribly. Hopefully season2 would come quickly

Hopefully it's only going to be a three to four months break.

Big thank you for posting! I was worried that it would turn into an abandoned sub if I didn't keep posting but it would become increasingly intimidating if I was the only one posting (aside from the other one another awesome person posted the other day).

A big thank you as well for taking the leap in creating this community!

I'll try to post more but work is getting in the way my OI-ing 😖
