Be it manga, manwha or manhua, what are some good villainess stories.

Im specifically looking for things that try to innovate in some aspect or that has a quirk that really makes it stand out to you, those that aren't your run of the mill "revenge, gets the prince, uses knowledge to humiliate everyone" kind of cliche story.

But that doesn't really matter, just recommend whatever story you have enjoyed in the genre if you like, even share your opinions on the genre.

Let's talk about villainesses!

This is a really solid list! The One Within the Villainess is the one I came here to recommend. I love villainess stories and this one really feels the most unique to me, though I'd say at least half of your recommendations are some of my favorites and the rest are ones I've been thinking of picking up, and now probably will.

Frankly I also love The One Within the Villainess. It does feel different, as you said - perhaps because it's the actual villainess doing stuff, not some cheerful Earthling in her body. Plus it's unusual to see in manga people doing the right thing not due to moral standards, but because it's also the smart thing to do.

Still, my fav gotta be Chounin A / Villager A. It's even a bit of a tearjerker.
