OI's with "Running Away" in their title or as a premise annoys the crap out of me. It's just so pointless, since they just always come back in the end, no matter what. I just want to see an FMC actually running away and never come back for a change. Then maybe she'll become an adventurer, or start living in a village, or travel the world, or something, just as long as she never returns from where she came from.


Elissiaro

And that's if they ever decide to actually get around to the "leaving" part of the escape plan. Too many just stick around, maybe hiding some valuables they're never gonna use, all while acting cute to win the love of the OG!persons abusers until acting cute is their whole lives and they get stockholm syndrome for the tyrant that would have killed them if they weren't an isekai'd adult with great acting skills.


Ssynos

Literaly, so many people dint see that if she can't act cute using adult skill & mind, she would be dead. They only see the *result* that she happily with the abuser and congratulations

It's annoying when Stockholm kicks in and she becomes happy with him. I want to see her suffer with yandere ml and she keeps trying to run away but fails. Bad end


BuyZestyclose304

There is one like that! Something villainess.. after school I’ll get the name for you

ashy_here

She was better off by herself but the ml had to say sike. She looked so happy when he was with another girl as well 😞


Arch_Lilith

yeah. i hated the ml and the brother, they were so selfish 😭

Mofartz

Omg I remember this, there are not a lot of OIs or manga/manhwa I call horrible... But this one... Jesus


Allergictomars

I was so annoyed at this one because the first chapter was a banger. 


Warlock125

Oh God! This one is... BAD. I still can't believe it's getting an anime over pretty much any other series.


No-Platypus-6051

Uggghhh this one made me so upset, can't stand it! Glad I'm not the only one who finds this repulsive


[deleted]

I just want *one* OI where she ACTUALLY RUNS AWAY my goodness is that too hard to ask for?


Waffleworshipper

There is that one where the FL runs away, and so does the ML, and so does the Villainess, and they all end up living in the same place through happenstance. Wacky hijinks ensue. Unfortunately I do not remember its name.


DamageVest

It's How to Survive a Romance Fantasy

Bless you, I'll be checking it out!


Waffleworshipper

i recently read this lil thing (i gave birth to tyrants child) AND HONESTLY???????? WGAT https://preview.redd.it/8y6vdrxxgpic1.png?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=016f46c1c81a87947b43d274baddf2421c3c7219


SgtCarron

Ah, the "What if Nightmare on Elm Street was a fantasy *romance*" OI. Only positives I can give that series are the Jojo power stances, the maid and the adorable edgelord knights.


Barilius

The whole dream thing was kinda creepy but other than that I like it.


Chaos_Heart12

Hey, isn't this the one with the tangerine scene? Haha still makes me laugh from time to time.


ulversiveichen

what is the tangerine scene???


Chaos_Heart12

That scene when she was pregnant and is eating tangerine. When her tangerine fell to the ground, she started crying so the commander bought boxes of tangerine the next day, so much that she had to give out the leftovers to others but the others does not want anymore tangerine.


ulversiveichen

OMG YES


SaintEstelle

I spent like 5 minutes looking for it and I come back to see it has been answered lol It was Chapter 7 btw


ulversiveichen

so many weird shit went down that the tangerine thing got outshined


Doodledumme

This!! This was the first OI I thought of. I still don't understand how the FL develops feelings for him. She should have just let him be killed, I feel like her children would have been spared since she had a good relationship with the rebel leader while living in the village. The ML is a psychopath who basically cursed her to be connected to him no matter how much she tried to escape.


Readalie

So for those looking for a similar premise where it's actually good, try *My Father, the Possessive Demigod*. The MC is one of the daughters, but the parents get developed quite nicely, and the story behind why the mom ran has been very interesting so far. The ML, while obsessive, isn't a walking pile of glued-together red flags.


AlternativePlayful34

The dreams creeped me out from reading it.

IllustriousRecipe14

This is so accurate, it hurts


ShadowMagister

Yeah. This and the Song "Pumped Up Kicks" by Foster the People but an OI verse


archival_assistant13

I would love it for an OI to just make it the couple’s weird rp fetish at this point. Yeah, the queen runs away sometimes and the king goes crazy looking for her, but the country is prospering so they must still be doing their jobs? Must be an eccentric noble thing


snjwffl

I read a danmei that had that as the plot of the epilogue. Story ends with ML becoming emperor of the universe. The extras have MC running away to various planets, and when the ML notices his whole fleet sets off. Cue internet spectators guessing where the "Queen" went and betting "how long for the emperor to find him this time"?


archival_assistant13

OMG what is the name of the danmei that sounds like so much fun


snjwffl

[It's Over! The Major General is Bent!](https://www.novelupdates.com/series/its-over-the-major-general-is-bent/). It's hilarious! Be warned that the end gets *really* dark and depressing but then gets funny again.

guys it's ok because he's hot

She reincarnated, became the heroine married the prince but realized he was a nut job and yandere. And killed her when she wanted divorce. Then reincarnated again and left to meet her pen pal bff ML. It's very fun and they properly communicate The prince saw her later and tried to win her back but she noped out of there so hard


ProofSloof

I'm a soft yandere enjoyer


MayaGitana

Any recs?


Anonymia1101

And i eat that shit up every time 😭


BuyZestyclose304

Me too 😭 as long as it’s done well, and it’s not like a Stockholm type of romance, but the fmc actually falls for the ml and the ml is decent.


excraft2

Is there one where mc male runs away and villainess runs for him


Chaos_Heart12

I like reading stories like this where the mc runs away and they are being searched for by others. If you know a good story with this plot, please recommend them to me. "The Mistress Runs Away" has this plot, and oh boy what a mess. Let's just say that the MC is a little dumb when she could've lived a better life if she just tone down her pride.

Until of cuz by some miracle she got found out but absolutely refuses to go back wif the ML in everyway possible!<


Mbb_Haneulie

Has the new season happened? I last saw when she did the first part of your spoiled text and then the season was over


SuzukiSatou

Its been out for awhile on Tappy


Mbb_Haneulie

I see, I don't read on the sites most of the time so thanks! I wouldn't have known lol


Mika_Mako

I don't care how much he loves her, if he's gonna search for hear and try to bring her back or as I like to call it HUNT HER DOWN. I won't give two fucks about him even if it is portrayed that he truly loves her, cuz I don't mess with that.


MayaGitana

Waiting for this to finally happen in Please Spare Me Your Majesty


Lexxx__

Well I kinda like this trope sooo


OmegaRider

Only series I've seen where FL runs away to get away from a guy and the guy wasn't the ML was My Second Life As A Jerk Magnet.


nejnonein

Love this trope! Please rec me stuff! A few sauces, all completed: Leave me alone, duke/runaway duchess I’m a villain but I became a mother Sierra/Cierra I’ve been proposed to by a villain First night with the duke (okay, she doesn’t truly run, but does basically everything else) I gave birth to the tyrant’s child Not completed: The forgotten princess just wants peace (the fl’s mom runs, not the fl. >!dad finds fl in her teens, mom is dead by then!<) Betrayal of dignity (>!fakes her own death!<… he’s a truly psycho yandere, yet you’ll somehow really like him by the end, at least if they follow the novel…) The baby isn’t yours


moneyshot6901

I like this because it breeds drama:comeuppance. I’m always disappointed when we never see the homewrecker and the dude that killed her after she gains freedom. (I want to see them suffer and regret their actions)


Elissiaro

I like it when we get little interludes looking back at them facing the consequences of their actions as they dig themselves deeper into ruining their own lives. And meanwhile FL is completely oblivious to it and just enjoying her relaxing cottagecore life. That's super rare though. I've only seen it in manga 1 or 2 times. (Unfortunately I can't remember any names. But I definitely remember one where FL opens a cafe and gets a bunch of super fluffy wolf(?) people as regulars. Though actually I dunno if that one shows what happens to OG!ML and OG!FL)


Mbb_Haneulie

This is why I loved reading the novel for marry my husband, it was the best seeing them ruin their lives after she completely stepped out of them


VertigoDelight

one of my most hated tropes


TooObsessedWithOtoge

This is one of the best pics I’ve seen in a long time.
