Games I enjoyed:
I am an artist (that's why my tastes are specific, That's not really why ) who occasionally plays otome and sometimes I draw on them, here are my recommendations, if you liked them, write to me in Private messages, I'll add something else.
1. Taisho x Alice - for those who are tired of the usual otome, but the game itself is not the game itself, I just can't 100% classify it as otome, everything is difficult. But at the heart of this game is LOVE.
2. Psychedelica of the Black Butterfly - It's a very cool story game, but there's very little romance. But I got so many emotions, so many powerful moments that made me shudder.
3. Code: Realize - the perfect combination of romance and plot. Although I don't like some romantic lines, it's individual. I didn't really like Saint Germain's Ruth, but I adore the character.
4. Utakata no Uchronia - in some places, the plot will subside. Confused by the open endings. BUT in is worth playing, I'm thrilled with TOBARI - my favorite is voiced by Okamoto Nobuhiko.
5. Homicipher - not quite a novel, not quite an otome. BUT she's so cool and special. Who is afraid of horrors and avoids them like me, don't be afraid, she's not scary, ahah

Looking for:
  • otome with LI groveling arc after betrayal, toxicity, manipulation etc
  • or otome with LIs where MC chased the LI first, stopped and then LI chased back
  • or otome where MC and LI are exes
Specific request I know...

Already tried:
  • Interactive fiction
  • Novels/Manhwa/Manhua
  • TV shows, dramas etc
I feel like I've played otome before with betrayal/toxicity/manipulation but never with a long/satisfying grovelling arc

I think:
- Hana Awase - Lots of toxic men and problematic tropes in some routes.
- Un:Logical - there is a character who is her ex boyfriend, seems really interesting.
- Diabolik Lovers - theres all of the above, and theyre all awful.
- OverReqiumz ? could fill the niche.

Just want to check there's redemption/grovelling arc for DiaLovers (I've been holding off on it because I've heard there's nuclear level of toxicity and I hope there's at least some payoff for poor MC)

Will defs be checking out Un:Logical and Hana Awase, and waiting for Over Requiemz

I would start with HanaAwase, it has some gameplay and you can grind out secret cgs and scenes by crushing the card game ranking (it gets very addictive)
 
Looking for: games with kuudere LIs or LIs that have Dante (from piofiore) vibes

Games I enjoyed: Piofiore (lol), Hakuoki (psp, love Saito, haven't played the rest of the routes yet or a different release of the game), Code:Realize (Van Hellsing and Victor my beloveds)

Things I dont like: Not sure what to say here, uhh, I greatly disliked Yang's route in fated memories and found him annoying there. Couldn't believe for half a second he cared about MC

You might like Lance from Nameless ~ The One Thing You Must Recall~ if you haven't already played it, he's a kuudere...with Dante's colour scheme :ROFLMAO: (not really similar in personality though)

Bustafellows has Mozu who is very Kuudere, he might be right up your alley.

I would suggest someone like Shu from Bustafellows or even Mozu from Bustafellows ^^ Also maybe Axel from Ozmafia!

I recommend Kent from Amnesia! He's actually really sweet especially in the fandiscs haha. Definitely gives Van Hellsing vibes.

Adding to the replies, Shunso from Meiji Tokyo Renka might also be your type. He's a bit sarcastic tho
 
I've been pretty free lately and want to try playing an otome game. Could you recommend some? I've played the Diabolik Lovers series before, and my favorite is Shu~~~

just Shu doesn't really narrow down much tho

what aspect do you like about Shu? do you like his voice? --> then I suggest looking for a game that has toriumi-san in it as a love interest

yes, this is a Lovebrush Chronicles ad :3 PLEASE PLAY LOVEBRUSH CHRONICLES!!
 
can anyone recommend me some otome games with love interest that's the bad guy? or just a mean bully is fine i love wolf girl and black prince anime and trying to find a guy that's an asshole exactly like kyouya is hard
 
Are you looking for newer otome games recommendations? Otherwise some popular ones are Code Realize, Amnesia, and Collar x Malice. Some new ones that are out are sympathy Kiss, variable barricade, Even if Tempest and Virche ~ErroЯ:Salvation~ (though its kinda sad). Also there's some good ones from indie developers like Dark Nights Reflections just came out its like a squeal to Dark Nights. I hope it helps.
