You may feel your favorite manga should be gathered together into distinct categories for your own reference and, now, you can do this with a LIST. After you've created your list or lists, you can proudly recommend them to other manga fans to showcase and share your taste in manga.
I would say that in all of these, the FL and ML either match physical, mental, or emotional strength at some point, if not throughout the story. And when physical strength is imbalanced, its not to the point that it effects the hierarchy of power between the two, or it just isn't a factor really. Same goes for mental and emotional.
you might hate me if i recommend madk, so im not recommending madk, instead im recommending the goddamn cesare borgia manga (Cesare), its SO good (it SHOULDNT BE)

isekaid as side character, villain supposed to kill but end up marrying
https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/as_you_wish_prince/
isekaid, meet villain, romance! (gets a little mary sue-ish towards the middle end, but eh)
https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/the_villainess_want_to_marry_a_commoner/

also not what youre asking for, its not isekai i dont think, but villain prospects endure
https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/i_picked_up_the_second_male_lead_after_the_ending/
isekaid as NPC, romance with the villain ensues.
