This isekai fantasy story, "The Slow Life of a Cheat Pharmacist: Let's Build a Drugstore in Another World," features a variety of races unique to this alternate world. While humans are the majority, there are also non-human characters such as werewolves and ghosts. Another highlight of isekai fantasy is the cute heroines! Of course, this work also features a variety of beautiful girls. Here, we'll be ranking the beautiful heroines who appear in the first four volumes of this work, from tsundere girls to mature women.
8th Place: Ferris
In 8th place is Ferris, Jiral's yandere girlfriend. When she first appears, Ferris has large bags under her eyes, a haggard face and is holding a knife in her hand, but in her original form she is one of the most beautiful girls in the series. Unlike her yandere form, Ferris' charm lies in her demure and shy fidgeting, as well as her ability to make unexpected, bold statements. Jiral and Ferris' lovey-dovey relationship was so intense that even Reiji was on the verge of bursting into a fit of jealousy. Unfortunately, however, the episodes highlighting Ferris' cuteness are scheduled to be included in volumes 4 and beyond of the manga, so we've ranked her 8th this time.
7th Place: Flam
Our seventh choice is Flam, the lord's wife. When she first appeared, she seemed like an older woman worried about her aging face. However, using beauty gel instantly rejuvenated her skin and transformed her into a young woman. She was already beautiful except for her complexion, so it's no surprise, but the beauty gel also boosted her confidence, transforming her into a completely different person. (Even Reiji, who gave her the beauty gel, was surprised.) While her age is unclear, she has a daughter who appears to be around 10 years old. 24-year-old Reiji said, "I can call her big sister," so we can assume she's around 30 years old. Her distinctive eyes, nicknamed "mushroom eyes," sparkle in a mysterious way, just like her daughter's.
6th Place: Ririka
Our sixth place pick is Ririka, a sister-complex girl with a perverted older brother. Her brother, Kururu, is a pervert who only ever goes after Reiji's ass, but he's handsome and has a great figure, making him very popular. As his younger sister, Ririka is also a beautiful girl. Even Reiji finds her incredibly beautiful. Ririka's cutest trait is her tsundere, bro-complex personality, which makes her unable to express herself openly. When Kururu keeps talking about Reiji, she mistakenly assumes he has a girlfriend named "Daisy" and shows up at Kirio Drugstore. Even after hearing that Kururu only talks about Reiji's butt, she's shocked by his perversion, but she continues to cherish him as a die-hard bro-con.
5th Place: Micott
Our fifth choice is the mysterious girl Micott. She suddenly appears as a regular character at the end of volume 2 of the manga. She's known for her long, wavy black hair. She calls Reiji "tencho" (tencho), and her speech and behavior are more like a cheerful gal, but she looks to be about the same age as Noela and the others. Ririka's good point is her good intuition, which is typical of a cheerful person! She has a frank personality and interacts in a gal-like way, but she also seems like a reliable person, as she can read the mood and judge the situation appropriately by observing her surroundings. She visits Kirio Drugstore as a customer, and seems to trust Reiji, as he leaves her in charge of the store. She has a slightly older sister-like air about her than Noela and the others, but Reiji treats Micott like a child, so I think she's just in her early teens, just has a more mature personality.
4th Place: Mina
Our fourth place pick is Mina the ghost, one of Kiriodog's two main characters. She's characterized by her straightforward heroine personality and appearance: airheaded, clumsy, and busty. She's a bit soft-spoken and prone to making mistakes, but she generally approaches everything with a positive attitude. Despite her appearance as a ghost, she's the oldest, over 100 years old. (Though it's likely her elf siblings have lived for over 100 years...) She's skilled at cooking, and is in charge of all food-related matters. While she's supposed to be able to see anyone with her special powers, Mina always uses them, allowing her to see just like a normal human, except for her first appearance. She's especially popular among older men. While Heez falls in love with Mina at first sight, Mina flatly replies, "I hate it when people look at me strangely." Though she's a bit naive, she seems sensitive to those kinds of stares.
3rd Place: Annabelle
Our third choice is Annabelle, the leader of the Red Cat Squad. She's a proud, big-breasted female mercenary, nicknamed "Big Sister" by those around her. While she highly values Reiji's abilities as a pharmacist, she doesn't rely on him more than necessary, describing him as "someone we need to protect." But does Annabelle have a weakness for the taste of Reiji's potions? She secretly drinks multiple potions every night, and the other members of the yakuza beg her to stop. But she reacts like a child who's been caught out, blatantly lying, "I didn't drink any." That childlike personality is part of Annabelle's charm.
Annabelle's Every Reaction Is Adorable
She usually has a cool image as the leader of the yakuza. She's not particularly talkative, and even when she's in trouble, she tries to solve it herself without telling anyone. She's the perfect character to be called "big sister." But deep down, she's still a childlike, girly girl. She flustered when she first saw bubbles from dish soap, and overreacted like Munch's Scream when she saw a clean plate. She also clearly has special feelings for Reiji, as she curiously watched him develop new drugs and personally visited him every day to get potions.
2nd Place: Elaine
In second place is Elaine, Noela's rival and one of her few friends her age. As the daughter of a lord, she has a haughty and naive personality. She has a distinctive vertically curled hairstyle that Noela calls "Makimaki," and her eyes are "shiitake mushroom eyes," just like her mother, Flam. What's especially endearing about Elaine is that she's naive, but actually honest and earnest. Despite her bossy attitude, she readily accepts criticism, expresses gratitude when it's due, and even though she acts bossy, she's not malicious, making her lovable.
Relationship with Noela: A Rival and a Friend
One of Elaine's greatest charms is her delicate relationship with Noela. When Elaine first appeared, she asked Reiji to create a love potion to impress someone she was interested in at a dinner party, and ended up falling for him afterwards. However, this caused Noela to see her as a rival, and their relationship became strained... Elaine wanted to be friends with Noela, but it seemed like Noela was unilaterally refusing to accept her, partly because she had called her a "beast-woman." However, in the next episode, the two worked together tending the store, and at the end, she gave Noela perfume as a gift, and they became friends. In the scene where Noela said "thank you," she had the biggest smile of the entire series, showing her joy.
1st Place: Noela
Our top pick is the main heroine of this series, the werewolf Noela, the poster girl for Kirio Drugstore. The reason she's number one is because she's so cute no matter what she does (lol). Noela is a character who perfectly fits the words "innocent" and "carefree," and has the image of a lively child. Both Reiji and Mina treat her like a child. This leads to a rivalry with Elaine, who is the same age as Noela, whom she meets for the first time... Reiji calls her the poster girl, but she's also like a mascot character. What's more, her fluffy wolf tail could be used for animal therapy?
Her eating scenes are just too cute
Noela is a character who is often seen eating, and despite her small size, she eats with great vigor and quantity. She often utters the phrase "delicious taste" and gulps down not only food and sweets, but also potions with relish... Her catchphrase, "Rù♪," which she utters when she's happy or eating something delicious, is also a cute touch.
Heroine Ranking Summary
So far, we've introduced the heroines who appear in the series, but the main heroine, Noela, is as adorable as a small animal! There were many other characters that caught our eye, but which one was your favorite?
