Most of the time, no. Otome animes tend to be nothing burgers mostly because it needs to have all of the LIs present without actually having a proper plot, which prevents from telling a good story and a good romance.
I think that if it focused more on adding to the story of the game, like a...
Here are some books that I have enjoyed:
- Diaspora: I have been waiting for this game for YEARS, but I do believe it was worth it, I love the characters and the worldbuilding. The way you can influence the characters around you reminded me a lot to dragon age origins
-The passenger: I love...
I love IFs, it's what pushed me to play otome games again.
I highly recommend Seasons of Shadows 🙋♀️, it's a regency romance/mystery game with so much customization and the LIs are so charming and funny.
After getting heartbroken so many times with books getting canceled or stuck on...
I have a PC, so I just tend to seat, if I get tired, I move up my monitor and stand up or, when the game is fully voiced, I use the small treadmill that I have.
Knowing their birth year doesn't really matter to me, I tend to be more influenced by at what time in my life I met them.

I push through it until I finish the route I'm doing, and then I take a break, most of the times playing non otome games. I also look for community content to motivate myself, looking at pretty art always helps.
Ore Monogatari is the first one that comes to mind, it's such a wholesome and sweet anime that I ended up with diabetes. I also really appreciate how they do not rely on tropes to make such a cute story.
I also LOVE Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun but cannot claim in good conscience that it's a...
I think that people *cough*men*cough* always belittle and scorn against anything regarding romance (Probably because they don't want women having standards). Add to that, that, even on this day and age, people still find cringe "otaku" culture.
I've been liking things that where considered...
I like playing otomes with yanderes but cannot handle yandere characters at all.
What I mean is that I can read any type of yandere without problem, and actually enjoy reading them, but I treat it more like a thriller or horror rather than romance. And if the MC shows any sign of reciprocating...
