Villainess manga and isekai harem are similar, why? Cause they like to recycle the same incidents 😄
- MC gets isekai’d into a novel she read, villainess is on the death route so she tries TOO hard to not die and get a divorce, completely missing all signs that people have interest in her.
- The infamous, maid slap scene. A popular scene in the genre. Honestly if your villainess manga doesn’t have the maid slap scene, is it even a villainess manga?
- (can only assume the character died when she was like 18+) tries to be mature, says she is not into kids but completely acts like one. A common thing in the villainess manga, they never act their “age” it’s just weird.
- Extra fluff scene to distract you from the fact that 3 chapters later she is going to forget everything that happens and says fuck you to the MC I want my divorce cause she is denser than water 10k ft.below the ocean
Quick edit as well. This one IMO has to be the worst out of the bunch, littered with contradictions. You want to be nice so you don’t die when you get a divorce but your helping the prince and siding with the empress??? Huh??? I haven’t gotten too far but please explain how you get of a situation, where the prince realizes the empress catches on cause she reports to her like some dog. How do you come back from that?? Like what?
There are some examples of villainess mangas where the villainess wasn’t isekai’d, reincarnated instead. I like those ones, but I also like the gems where it’s neither isekai or reincarnation. One good example is “Please throw me away”, love that one to death
