Which type of Male Interest is the most unforgettable in a Otome game?

[under_themoon99]

Ya-hoo! I've seen like the gentle types or the mature types of male interest, bit I would like to know which type is the most unforgettable ones ~ for research purposes nee? ദ്ദി˶˃ ᵕ ˂ )✧

Someone who always prioritizes MC's safety and happiness above all else.

The most recent one I played is probably Ritsu from Kimi ni Madoi, Kimi ni Oboreru. I remember Ritsu being helpful in every route you take (sometimes his help is small, sometimes quite big).

He is even quite hostile in Akira's route, after all Akira isn't an Alpha and that threatens MC's life. Ritsu is definitely my favorite (along with Kyouya) and left a deep impression.

I think I really like bad boys—hahaha—though not the kind who plays the victim or the typical *yandere*. I mean the type who doesn't like to show his true self and is brutally honest, even if it hurts the people around him. My list includes:

Helvetica Orstead - Bustafellows
Yang - Piofiore
Ryuki KeiSaiin - Cupid Parasite
Molly Woodland - Over Requiemz
Takeru Sasazuka - Collar x Malice

Honestly, I hadn't even realized this until I saw this question and looked at my top otome list, hahaha.

Awww!! ~ This is very sweet!!! ❀‎ܓ(｡◠ ꇴ ◠｡ )

Childhood friend LI is what I find the most forgettable, which is a shame since almost every otome has him somewhere, either in the supporting cast or route lol.

Although this is tied to the fact that I disliked most of my former classmates, so anyone telling me "I rmb you from XYZ grade" and I've always mentally cringed at that concept.

Ouh!~ This is bitter sweet~! But I totally get you~ Also Childhood friend LIs gives sweet and nostalgic vibes~ the memories~ ദ്ദി˶˃ ᵕ ˂ )✧

I think it's hard to top the yandere archetype! When it comes to unforgettability, they go all out in their craziness and obsession you know?
In fact it isn't my favorite trope but I can't deny they leave a lasting impression. Maybe it's just my brain that's wired to remember the shocking and negative experiences more hahah

That said they have a spectrum like some mild ones and the more hardcore guys, the hardcore ones will be remembered. I saw you say in another post that you're new, you can use Amnesia for research. Hate it or love it, it will be memorable experience

Ooohh!- I'm suddenly interested with the hardcore ones kyaaaa~ I'll take note of Amnesia ദ്ദി˶˃ ᵕ ˂ )✧ I think Yanderes are cute and just a little crazy- we can help fix them- right? right?..

As long as he looks good, I feel like I like all types of male leads. If I really like it, it's the type of male lead who is not easy to fall in love with the female lead, with difficult to conquer male leads, such as villains or arrogant, aloof ones. A challenging male lead can be very exciting haha.

I love this idea~!!! We need a UR-difficulty Male Lead route (≧∇≦)/

There are only 2 ways. Either the type who have an ambition and willing to die for it, or, the one that wished and cherished the fl more than anything. Personally I find this type of character that are most memorable, not only bc they're brave, they're also dedicated and dare to risk their own good for others

 

[b3rryb3rry]

I feel like, in otome communities, the most unforgettable LIs are usually the yandere ones. Characters like Toma from Amnesia. His cage and its shock value is still brought up all the time to this day even though the game came out 15 years ago. Tei from Nameless is a good one, too.

Over Requiemz hasn't been out for too long but it's gained a lot of traction due to how every LI has an alternate yandere route.

Yanderes aren't everyone's cup of tea but they definitely leave an impression!! Their routes are usually the most shocking/impactful for me.

This is just a me thing, but no matter the game, I can't look past the childhood friend love interests who have had feelings for the heroine for a long, long time. Playing other routes after theirs, knowing they have to give up on the love of their lives, is just painful, and that only makes them even more unforgettable to me. Sullyland making me play Kiseki's route first is close to torture ·°՞(ᗒ□ᗕ)՞°·

 

[Vyrmitris]

They're not my type romantically, but whenever I know there's a chuunibyou love interest, I have to check them out, at least for the entertainment value :3 That and how rare they are make them pretty unforgettable in my eyes XD

Chuunibyou LIs sounds very interesting and fun actually!!! (≧∇≦)/ +1! +1!

 

[O cha]

The LIs who seem like they really need the MC... The ones who seem destined for a heartbreaking future unless the MC saves them. Like, LIs whose futures look so tragic in other LIs' routes, and who seem like they can only find true happiness in their own route...

Ouh!! In this situation you really can't help but cheer for that LIs route! It's chef kiss!~ ᜊ꒦ິ^꒦ິᜊ

Yes, haha. Every time I see such a male lead, I am sure to be the first to choose him. I also like male protagonists who are beautiful, powerful, and tragic.

 

[ryuntsai]

What I find the hardest to forget are LIs who sacrifice their own happiness for the greater good.

I don't know how to explain it, but there's something deeply moving about a man who has already spent his whole life struggling and suffering, yet, in the end, still chooses to put everyone else first. Even after everything he's been through, he gives up his own happiness so that others can be happy.

That kind of selflessness is what stays with me the most.

 

[Yashalun]

For me the most unforgettable personality is the one who is capable of destroying anyone and anything to be with the protagonist, and who, as soon as she dies or is hurt, is willing to go to the ultimate consequences for her. I'll give an example

Very wholesome and heartbreaking at the same time, I totally get your point~!! (´°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥ω°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥｀)
