Isekai: It revolve around a person who is transported to and has to survive in another world, such as a fantasy world, virtual world or parallel universe.

Doujinshi: A doujinshi is a fan-created or self-published work, sometimes in the form of erotic manga.

Bara: Gay manga with big tiddie men

Isekai is a subgenre of fantasy in which a character is suddenly transported from their world into a new or unfamiliar one.

Bara the genre focuses on male same-sex love, as created primarily by gay men for a gay male audience


A doujinshi is a fan-created or self-published work, sometimes in the form of erotic manga.

I think the isekai is reincarnation when you died and got in some unfamiliar places,the doujinshi is like fan art? Like making new story using your favourite anime character like levi x erwin making it a manga and the bara idk sorry

(((i have very limited knowledge, so if i was wrong in any way please correct me)))

best i know its basically:

isekai- someone from modern day is transported back in time/to another world, usually after they die/are killed in the modern world. this is what all of the 'villainess' stories you see fall under (normal person dies and is reincarnated into the villainess' body). sometimes the 'other world' can also be a novel or book, and your mc is reincarnated into a character from the novel's body

bara- mxm smutty stuff written by gay men. this is usually where you'd see all those beefy big tiddie men

doujinshi- when a fan makes their own mini manga/comic that is based on an existing piece of work. for example, there are a lot of doujinshis for my hero academia, mainly ones that explore ships that aren't canon/wouldn't happen, like bakudeku, kiribaku, etc

Awesome- Titan's bride is yaoi isekai, then? Is that right? :D

Isekai means the protagonist was transferred to another world (sekai=world) usually after dying, but can be reincarnation, summoned, travelled to, etc. Doujinshi if im not mistaken are mangas that are self published or not affiliated with any publishing houses. Then bara, this im not sure, but like a character design trope(?) where the characters are all big beefy and muscled men

I just searched the bara and it said to be a slang internet,gay men to gay men.it a genre of homosexual erotic sometimes manga sometimes pornographic made by gay men.hope this helps

Thanks you all. :D I have been exploring genres and I want to know them so I can choose which ones to read.

Yeah

Yeah since he was transported to another world

isekai is basically when a character travels to a different world or gets reincarnated into a different world, its usually used to give the mc a "second change" at life (ex: that time i got reincarnated as a slime, log horizon, re:zero). bara is basically bl/yaoi but with muscular men! and from what i can tell doujinshi's are basically fanmade comics/mangas ab a anime, manga, ect,,, so basically they're all kind of just subcategories

isekai- when a character travels from their world to another whether it be because they died or just woke up there. Isekai literally means "other world" in japanese

doujinshi-subgenre where it is based off of an actual series but doesnt necessarily follow the plot of the original so basically a fan made version of something

bara-same as yaoi but the guys are muscular

Then do you know any isekai bl mangas? Suggest some great reads if you know one please. :D

i didn't make this but here's a list~
http://www.mangago.zone/home/mangalist/840779/

this wasnt the h life i imagined after reincarnation, i was reborn as the villainess' father and i need to xxx to survive?, reincarnated into demon king evelogia's world, tale of the yellow dragon, the titan's bride, the affairs of the other world depend on the corporate slave, once upon a fairy tale

isekai can also be just about a different world then ours it doesnt necessarily have to mean that the mc moves to another world

Thanks. I saw those on the list above. :D
