It’s one thing to be transported to another world, but it’s another to go there and become royalty; these individuals have the best of both worlds.
A second chance at life is a golden opportunity that is not easy to find, except in isekai anime or manga. The main character dies, and sometimes they have the chance to be reborn in an alternate or fantasy world. The main character could be an average person in their new world, but one thing is most likely certain: they get special powers as compensation.
Some protagonists hit the jackpot by reincarnating as royalty or part of a royal family as a prince, princess, king, or queen. These characters with recollections of their previous lives tend to live their new lives to the fullest since they have resources at their disposal.
Updated August 25, 2024, by Oluwatokiloba Folami: Isekai offers fans a mix of fantasy, adventure, and often a chance for the protagonist to start a new life in a completely different world. Among the various subplots and themes within the isekai genre, one particularly intriguing trope is that of protagonists who are reincarnated as royalty. These isekai stories, be they manga or anime, not only explore the classic isekai elements of new powers and unfamiliar worlds, but also the complexities of ruling a kingdom. Protagonists must familiarize themselves with political intrigue, and fulfill the responsibilities of a royal lineage. Whether they are born into a royal family or find themselves ascending to power in unusual ways, these protagonists face unique challenges as they balance their past lives with their newfound status. 13 Bertia Ibil Noches
