10 Best Female Isekai Protagonists

Isekai shows are those that have the main character transported to another world, usually a medieval or fantasy realm. The character may be dragged into the world by a monster, or put on a virtual reality headset, and get trapped in the game, or the character is killed (often by a truck) and reincarnated in the new world with sudden magical powers.

Regardless of how they got there, the main character is sure to find their new world full of over-the-top action, beautiful girls, and problems that only they can solve. The isekai genre is full of male main characters being transported into the arms of a beautiful woman (or several women), but female main characters also have adventures alongside fun casts of characters that fans adore.

Karen strongly dislikes her tall height in real life, so at first, she only played Gun Gale Online to enjoy having a short body, but over time she began to enjoy the game fully and become a great player. She is persistent and introverted, and although it takes some convincing for her to take the role, leads teams with confidence.

Shiraori is constantly optimistic and has a casual attitude, making jokes and often breaking the fourth wall to comment on an event.

While the show is named after Inuyasha, it is Kagome who was isekai’d, and the show follows her arc to becoming a kind, brave, and powerful girl that masters archery and spiritual powers.

Azusa is the kind person that downplays her abilities and tries not to show off but does not let anyone push her around.

10 Best Female Isekai Protagonists

Nicknamed ‘Bakarina’ by fans for her overly optimistic mindset, Catarina is a joy to watch, as well as her interactions with the characters around her, who inevitably end up falling in love with her. Caterina is a different kind of isekai protagonist, as she is not ultra-powerful, but gets by on her kindness and reliance on others.

This anime is driven by Myne’s determination and genuine love for books, as well as the challenges that Myne faces when the world throws obstacles her way. Unlike a lot of isekai shows, the world is genuinely challenging for Myne to navigate, and her victories feel earned.
