What do you think about cross-dressing LIs?

[LapisWhale]

Sooo =)) I dont even know why I like them, maybe the most masculine thing a man can do is show off their femininity? or maybe I just love pretty bois =))
Any game recommendations :>?

i especially like long-haired man with genderless beauty.I can recommend virche evermore and ken ga kimi even though they don't cross-dressing

Although I can only remember 707 from MysMe doing this (and maybe Ryouta from Hatoful Boyfriend when he dresses up as a café maid, but I don't know if pigeons count XD), I found it hilarious and personally I like it, especially when done comically. I'd like to see it in more otome games!

Mathis in virche has that one CG tho...

I think I've only come across that character crossdressing? It was okay lol

 

[satory]

It's probably not exactly what are you looking for, but what about Jack Jeanne? It's about all-boys school theatre, so half of LI's have crossdressing CGs.

I like them toooo :Dddd I came across some CGs in Virche and oh my, all the LIs are sooo pretty =)) if I didnt know better, I would assume some of they were girls lol

 

[Eril $akurai]

I adore them!
They're so beautiful!
There's one in Cinderella Phenomenon and Olympia Soiree.

i absolutely LOVE crossdressing men!!!!!! even better if they still look like men when crossdressing, like that boy from wind breaker (manga) for example! there are tons of bishoujoge/trapge with crossdressing protagonists/lis, but theyre basically indistinguishable from girls (they even have female seiyuu).. a common trend in anime as well haha! so its really important to me that men still look like men. because if a straight ship just looks like yuri, why dont i go and read actual yuri?

this is why im so excited for sins of kaleido.. im not sure if he is a serious crossdresser, but heath from sins of kaleido is a perfect example of a masculine crossdresser<3 i really hope we see more of these characters in the future!!!!!

 

[Kyoko]

OOOOO who doesn't love a pretty guy? It's total eye candy I'm going to get lots of hates but the game with the most long haired bishonenis HAKUOUKI!! But Night Shade also has some....i think most feudal Japan setting types will be your best bet. An indie game called Dark Nights also has one oni guy name Zeikun. He has really pretty long red hair....

I just checked it out!! It looks promising :>>>>>

I totally agree :Ddd Girl-like LIs are fine but if they still look like men, then it's the best. Such a shame we dont have many cross dressing men D;

 

[MissMochi]

I really don't mind and honestly love to see when male or female characters don't lean into just one category (and if they like both fem and mas type clothing even better)!

 

[scorpies]

i have been seeing a recent otome called イケ勘 (ikekan?) on twt and it has a crossdresser li i think

yup, ikekan! its from the same author as "can i not fall for idols?"^^

 

[Hisami]

Pretty guys in dress and the gap when they suddenly show their masculinity is my weakness. Tlicolity eyes volume 3 has twin idols with one of them cross dressing it was good.

 

[fr4pp3cinn]

I adore crossdressing characters! I'm really into pretty boys and cute boys in otome, so seeing them in feminine clothes is even better, they're so stylish and cute! I remember playing Bad Apple Wars and wishing Naraka had a route lol

there are tons of bishoujoge/trapge with crossdressing protagonists/lis, but theyre basically indistinguishable from girls (they even have female seiyuu).. a common trend in anime as well haha!

I agree!! Especially with the female seiyuu thing. I don't mind it if the character still sounds masculine/like a young boy, but it's kinda disappointing when they just sounds like a girl... I do like when they're a bit androgynous though!

yeah pretty much that! like i understand why they do it in bishoujoge, because they want to sell the game to men so everything that gets fxcked needs to look and sound like a girl, but i would much prefer it if otome crossdressers were masculine..!! i remember there were female seiyuu in enzai, even though its a full yaoi game with no female characters, but that was a veeeeery long time ago, and i dont really think it happens that much nowadays? for shota or feminine guys we have ayumu murase now LMAO

 

[Gyte]

same I'm literally so obsessed with this trope too
I don't even fully understand why, but there's something about cross-dressing / feminine-presenting LIs that just hits so different… like the confidence + softness combo?? I'm weak for it
Also I saw Ikekan mentioned by other users here and the moment I saw that character I just knew I had to play it immediately

wait this game looks so cute!! if you dont mind me asking, did you play pc version or switch version? is there any difference between them, aside from multiple volumes for pc (which i assume were combined into a single entity for switch)?

 

[Fitorja_200010]

I love them, but I also love long haired Li or Li that look kinda genderless. Tho i don't see these types of LI often

 

[mikaburnerrr]

Wahh, I don't see it happen often, but when it does it's truly beautiful :,] If anything, I feel like cross-dressing LIs is an archetype that can be explored more!

 

[lovesicknis]

i love them as long as they look like adults and not little kids but i'm also a queer man not a woman

 

[bugpudding]

I LOVE THEM!! I read a manga that had an older man in a maid outfit while still looking like an older man and whew! My heart almost couldn't take it. If a game existed where you could pursue a LI like that I would simply pass away.

 

[woodypei]

YESSS!! I have had a lot of positive experience with the otome men who crossdress!!Actually, one of my all time fav LIs cross dresses.

May I introduce u to Haruka from Chouchou Jiken!! He is amazing, and rly showcases Murase Ayumu's talent.

The crossdresser in Meiji Tokyo Renka is also my fav character in that game

YESS! Such a shame that the LIs are not usually mature men, especially for an older crossdress ones!
