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

DO NOT post links to unofficial translations, especially in the post title. It can cause issues for translators and force them to stop. (Also please support the author if available in your country.)
Related items are more than welcome. I love botched translations and scribbles artists try to pass off as horses and would love to continue seeing these types of posts. However, posts should have a connection to Otome Isekai content.
If you post a photo, please include the source
Spoilers are not allowed in post titles. They are allowed in comments, but must be hidden.

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

Classic OI Example: Lady Rose Wants to Be a Commoner

Female main character isekais into an otome game as a villainess

OI Twist Example: An Observation Log of My Fiancée Who Calls Herself 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.

Modern OI Example: Who Made Me a Princess?

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

Otome Isekai Adjacent Example: Your Throne

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

Sorry to do this again. kbin.run went down, taking [email protected] down with it as well as my original account @[email protected], so I have to start over. I really thought kbin.run was going to be up forever, as its admin was an Mbin maintainer and the instance had been around for over a year, but they vanished and took [email protected] down with it, so here I am on ani.social, which has also been around for over a year, starting over for the second time due to instances dying on me (linked thread for the first time I started over: that time was due to kbin.social going down and taking [email protected] down with it). Once it gets some subscribers I'll ask what instance they'd like a backup community on to prevent this from happening yet again.

Now actually on-topic: I should probably check out how far The One Within the Villainess manga got. I used a very rough Google Translate and its TVTropes page to find out what happened, but that does not mean I do not enjoy seeing the illustrated form in manga even if I know what happens.
