A collection of romantic fantasies set in the European Middle Ages.

Most of these stories are centred around strong female leads who are reincarnated or isekai’ed into another realm filled with magic.

Some of these stories such as ‘Roxana’ or ‘The Remarried Empress’ take a refreshing diverge from the rest as they do not include reincarnation or isekai and instead focus upon the time period or fantasy elements. Highly recommend these if you can’t tell ^^

Hope you enjoy :3

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...

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.

These consist of Korean and Chinese colored graphic novels called manhwa & manhua

Manhwas on Tapas with over 1 million views - part 4.

Most of these are unique/etheral art styles! They caught my eye and got me to read them so they may do the same for you! ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧
I cannot vouch if you'll enjoy the stories but the art is beautiful
All of these are manhwa/manga that have romance in them and are historical isekai/reincarnation/transmigration/not any of the ones list.
