I did try to watch them but most of them are so bad that I gave up. They make it so weird like Brothers Conflict. Where trying to recreate parts of all routes feels detached.
The only one that I could recommend is Arcana Famiglia. They didnt push the "romance/route" parts and made it work out...
I think maybe you can try Gretel route from Alice x Taisho? In his route you guys are suppose to represent Gretel and Hansel. He is considered mc younger brother.
Ryuki from Cupid Parasite is so freaking precious. 😭
I only played this game for him.
Also Enomoto from Collar x Malice. He is such a dummy tsundere but at the same time he is so protective!
When it came to harvest moon games I liked the fact that characters had their lives and eventually would get married even if that person was not me. Rivals make the stakes higher and for me it made the game more interesting. Sadly nowadays Story of Season doesn't add them.
Also u reminded me of...
Omg yes! I remember playing Pacthesis games a lot when I was younger. It was probably my gate towards otome games overall!
I especially loved Star Days!
I remember watching Sailor Moon on tv late at night because only then they had reruns. Also Naruto and old Shaman King. It makes me want to rewatch those series now lmao
Im trying to complete Cupid Parasite but besides Ryuuki route (💜) other routes make me so annoyed. I guess this game might not be for me. Was thinking about buying fandisc but Im not sure anymore.
I really like revenge stories. Also any villainess, isekai and overall romance. I dont expect anything that is deep. Just something that will make me relax.
