"Cursed" Otome Drama CDs

[arbeekeypok]

Okay do you guys have a particular Otome CD that has... weird themes and scenarios that you can't help but be curious with?

I have been personally collecting those CDs with weird situations and plotlines, basically. I love more comedic and darker CDs too, so any that just makes you laugh or be all "WTF" is welcome.

I'm intrigued. Do you have any examples?

"Revenge Salon" for sure, its so disturbing with so much gore, definitely not for the faint-hearted so if you're a vanilla girl avoid this at all costs lmao. Make sure to check for trigger warnings too, its pretty heavy

TETENSHA has some wild ones. there's also the series of vibrators turning into humans lol and one end of the world one. I'd have to remember the names xD

I have a few

For the more "Bruh that's a weird fetish" ones, there's always Hentai Kareshi and some of the Hyouhai Kareshi ones, but those if you got a stomach for non-vanilla stuff. Lots of interspecies stuff that has more... odder anatomical ways to repopulate a lost alien race.

For the "Just kinda weird" ones, there are scenarios where you have afterlife sex with various Mythological Gods, there's a LOT of Magical Girl and Sentai themed scenarios that goes into porn parody territory. I remembered there are some CDs that have a "You laugh you lose" aspect where you have to laugh as the scenarios but also be okay with getting sexy with it-

Like any Drama CD that is just "Wait you can put THAT in a Drama CD?"

Shinai Naru Thanatos, especially the latest one. I was surprised to find out that some of the characters in this series were inspired by actual famous real life criminals, and one of the latest ones is Ted Bundy. At first, i only knew Ted Bundy as a murderer who mainly targeted women.

I immediately listened to it because Domon Atsushi. But after listening to it, i realized this guy is actually crazier and way more disturbing compared to the other. He killed those women because they reminded of us, and he didnt just kill them, but also did sex to their bodies afterward. Like, what do you mean "A living being really dont make me brick"? Wtf? And yeah, after that he tortured us bcs he was actually want a revenge for planning to kill us. But in the end, he didnt do it bcs he still loved us.

I was also annoyed by the tokuten. He did get captured and arrested by the police, and we were checking on him in prison. But he was so calm, like he thought he wouldnt be locked up. I ended up looking into the real killers background too and i didnt expect the details to be that accurate compared to the real person, like how he also worked as a lawyer.

AYO I LOVE SHINAI NARU THANATOS (Especially since I'm a True Crime fan that's in it on how the writers execute the SK inspirations well). I'm personally more of an Eito Seo (Sumeragi Mikado's CD) fan and have drawn fanart of him. <3

I recently got Domon Atsushi's CD as well because Mikado Ren of Rouge et Noir fame is the scenario writer. I did like that she genuinely did have fun with her research as she wrote a spot-on fictionalized take on Bundy's relationship with his college ex that the breakup kickstarted his murder spree of victims that have MC's haircut. Lots of Yanderu but not a lotta Yandere tho-

The DLSite Tokuten was actually more of an alternate scenario where Banba was caught and imprisoned and is in the middle of the trial that he himself likely is making a spectacle of (Which the prison call scene is meant to be a reference to the movie "Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil, and Vile") He then convinces MC that what they did during the sex scene was totally consensual and BDSM play so the touku was just him trying to gaslight MC with an alternate, more romantic take of the scene.

I heard the Pokedora Toukuten was WAY WAY MORE wtf as it tackles Banba killing the MC and before cremating her, gives her corpse a go one last time. He then convinced his parents to marry the MC and in Saltburn fashion, take EVERYTHING she and her family has. All in soloquy talking to her grave with him being bricked about remembering it. No sticking anything in grave soil sadly

Ooo, that does sound quite funny, but also really intriguing haha. I haven't seen any sentai stuff yeah, but it makes sense that there's a market for it!

Mythological gods and interspecies seems quite common though? There are quite a few games about mythological gods, but maybe it is rarer in drama cds.

Ah, so theres actually another tokuten and its just part of the volume ending....? Okay.... Thats not fair. THAT ENDING WAS SO UNFAIR??!! WTF?*!!*@$-

I literally even made up an extra scenario if this bastard got released, she will hire a hitman to take him out. Like, how does the excuse of "We broke up" even come close to making up for the crimes he committed against his victims and us?????

Yes, i do feel bad about your family background and even dont know who your biological father is, but WHO ARE YOU TO THINK THAT GIVES YOU RIGHT FOR TREAT US LIKE THIS?#?
#?!?

But outside of this discussion, like you said, i genuinely happy and enjoying so much to see how the writer really puts their passion and idea into their story. Sometimes listening just moan track full makes my head hurt, so i look for asmr which focuses more on the plot and story.

...whats wrong with me

With no doubt, the Nureba series.（濡羽の家の祟り婚）
Literally "curse" with no joke.

It was a piece I met just when I moved one small step beyond all-ages otomes, and the impact is still there. Like... O-okay, t-that's what you meant for adult uhhuh. *shivers*

As the volumes progressed, right at the very end the true culprit behind the clan's cursed blood was revealed I despaired realizing there was no salvation ahead...



I knew it after quite a few years since its released, and I lacked even the courage to search for reviews, so I kept it locked away in my chest. :p
Yet every time when I come across similar plots, my stomach clenches tight and cries "ah sh**, here we go again" wwww

But here's also me who enjoy plot-heavy otomes.
