Recommendations for 'Isekai' with female protagonist

I recommend
1. Beware Of the Villainess, this woman is fearless has no magic and she plans on doing good deeds, because she became the villainess in her favorite novel and she plans on living good life. But also she is physically and mentally strong and also plans on getting revenge on her cheating fiance.

2. Cheating Men Must Die, because she is badass and doesn't take sh*t from no one and always gets revenge on b*tches and cheating bastards in novels and always gets happy endings for the women who didn't get good endings.

3. The Crazy Adventures Of The Mystical Doctor, as a modern female killer she was reborn as the loser and had to act like boy for some reason. But she trains a lot and becomes a badass, you'll see you will love it.

4. Miss Not So Sidekick, about a girl who became a minor villain in her favorite novel, she tries not to stand out, but sometimes it does not work. She decides just to make her own books and make popcorn to watch the drama.

6.The Villainess Will Crush Her Destruction End Through Modern Firepower, about college student who had the knowledge of modern weapons, but she was reborn as the villianess in a game that her friend showed her and trains herself to become a badass. I I suggest you guys to read it on https://manganelo.com/

I personally love isekai as a genre, but yeah, I would love there to be more with female protagonists. Those ones where it's a dude you gets reincarnated as a chick don't count because the whole dang point is to see things from a girls perspective, and all of the ones with that have creepy male gaze centric yuri ecchi, often with lots of lolis. It's disheartening when a manga defines a woman as a sex object. Even the cheesy embarrassingly heterosexual chemistry-less romances in the reverse harem manga tend to be more bearable (and surprisingly often better written) than an isekai whose display of women boils down to "Hey! let's compare titties!" and "Wow, I sure get groped a lot. It's irritating but that's just life with men, lol."

So far I’m caught up with/following (with my thoughts):

Saving 80,000 Gold Coins in the Different World for My Old Age (lots of fun)

Isekai de Mofumofu Nadenade Suru Tame ni Ganbattemasu. (I too want to pet All the things, super cute, I love it)

Isekai Omotenashi Gohan (very domestic, she’s dealing with it, pretty good)

Sengoku Komachi Kurou Tan! (no Cheat Skills! she’s an agricultural student and good at it, pretty good)

The Duchess’ 50 Tea Recipes (Ok so far)

Survive as the Hero’s Wife (I can’t actually think of any way to defend this one? It’s not good, but I read it)

I’m a Villainous Daughter, so I’m going to keep the Last Boss (one of those otome ones, not terrible, but not particularly good either)

I Am a Child of This House (reluctant to count this as an isekai, it’s kind of a pointless detail wedged in the backstory and has no bearing on anything in the story whatsoever, she says she remembers her previous life, but she acts and thinks her body’s age, I’m reading it I guess)

Isekai de Shippai Shinai 100 no Houhou (There is ONE chapter, and I am excited for more)

The Vengeful White Cat Lounging on the Dragon King’s Lap (a bit all over the place, but pretty good, I like it)

I Became The Emperor’s Daughter One Day (everyone’s a murder hobo for some fucking reason? makes no sense, and not in a fun way, a five year old tries to murder her three year old adopted sister multiple times, and the style is very shoujo, y’know how bullying in shoujo is portrayed?, like it’s a bad thing happening but the general feel is “oh it’s okay, her white knight will save her?” only the white knight is her adoptive father and the saving is brutally murdering his other adoptive daughter, like what the fuck, don’t ask why I’m still reading this)

Dad is a Hero, Mom is a Spirit, I’m a Reincarnator (not bad)

Kainushi Juujin to Pet Joshikousei (not sure how I feel about this one really, the premise is a bit uncomfortable, but it’s… uh… not ecchi at least? and it’s kinda cute)

Kumo desu ga, nani ka? (it’s gotten a bit repetitive, just get stronger, almost die fighting new stronger enemies, at least the spider isn’t sexy, …yet, it’s okay)

The Empress’ Poor-quality Special Effects (no defending this one, it’s bad)

I Reincarnated into an Otome Game as a Villainess With Only Destruction Flags… (another otome one, I love the protagonist’s chaotic disaster energy, she doesn’t appear to have figured out that she isn’t straight yet, but all of the dudes and girls who like her seem to have, accidental bisexual harem from just being a chaotic entity trying not to die, I agree with all of the harem, I too want to marry this woman, I love it)

Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear (no romance, introvert in a bear suit, hilarious, fairly serious fantasy world, but whatever god reincarnated her just really really wants her to wear the fucking bear suit, it doesn’t match the genre of the world, just, Bear Suit, wonderful, I love it)

Potion Tanomi de Ikinobimasu! (pretty good, protag still hasn’t quite grasped the full extend of how OP she is, but she isn’t an idiot, and I like that)

Ascendance of a Bookworm (It’s pretty good, a decent example of what I’d like more of)


In Another World, I’m Called: the Black Healer (I appear to have misplaced my bookmark for this one, but it’s ok I guess)

I recommend Mahou Tsukai no Yome and Flying Witch. These aren't isekai, but more like Harry Potter where there is a magical layer to the world and we learn about it with the protagonist. Flying Witch is a fun slice of life without any real plot and Mahou Tsukai no Yome is slice of life/ action mystery. There is also Tensei Shitara Dragon no Tamago Datta... It's male lead, but no harem, and the protagonist continually has to make difficult decisions as he has to push people away in order to protect them.
 
Seconding the recommendation for Fiancé's Observation Log of the Self-proclaimed Villainess. Arguably, it's from Cecil's perspective, but Bertia is just so endearing.

The Savior's Book Cafe in Another World isn't too bad either. A 30-something gets summoned to another world, but instead of becoming the saviour, she sets up shop in the forest and catches the eye of a knight.

If you're looking for a more traditional isekai with a female adventurer, there's The Weakest Tamer Began a Journey to Pick Up Trash.
 
A World Ruled by Cats (completed) - girl dies while saving a cat and is reborn into a world where animals are like the humans of our world (so like cats and dogs having human pets). She turns into someone's pet human.
Inso's Law (ongoing) - girl finds herself stuck in an internet novel where she is the best friend of the internet novel's main character. This manhwa is marked as a reverse harem, but it isn't fully one. The girl also finds herself debating on whether she should actually make bonds in this world as she may one day disappear.

Ah these are both webtoons by the way, not manga.

Re:monster
Arifureta
Tate no yuusha
Imminence in the shadow
Wortenia senki
Isekai taitei cheat

Try those out you will probably like them if you want more then just ask

somehow, I don't like the list you recommend. There's just something that makes me feel uneasy watching/reading them...

I'm getting bored of isekai manga with male protagonists, seems to be the same stuff, there are only a few i enjoy with a male lead, and that's the non harem type.

I've only read/reading a few isekai manga with a female MC, and would like to read more of the same kind!

Looking forward to your recommendations!

There's an isekai anime + light novel series called "The Twelve Kingdoms"/"Juni Kokki/Kokuki" that is extremely good. It has one of the best female MCs ever imo. It's an older anime, and there's a fair amount of action/adventure/politics as well as a loooot of character growth. The anime was never fully completed, but Youko's (the female protagonist) arc was wrapped up by the end of the first two seasons, and the novel series was updated pretty recently (2019), so I think that should be ok.
