i used to listen to jpop in the past, but not as often as i listened to kpop!! once i discovered otome games, i started adding their osts to my playlists all the time because they're just so good 💚💚💚

and some vas do participate in certain musical projects like soma saito with enstars and hypmic!!! outside of otome, it also made me curious to listen to love live and ggs like morning musume.

i'm not into jrock/vkei like some friends, but i've heard some isolated tracks and they're very good too 🗣️ i've heard some plastic tree tracks because of cxm!!

i also mentioned anime adaptations in the title to specifically talk about the opening of brothers conflict. years have passed and i can't move on from this song...

I love otome games song. Like starry sky's op both their (in) and (after) always mesmerizing, back then I don't know a lot of otome games so it's my first time seeing it.

Otome games isn't the first one to get me listening jpop, it's shounen anime opening and vocaloid instead lol but otome games is the first one to make me study Japanese language. Cause anime and vocaloid song always have subtitles (or dub), while otome games in english are rare.

I'm more of a "as long as it sounds good to me, I like it" type of person when it comes to music.

If I'm continuously consuming media and end up coming across music I like, it's immediately going to my playlist!

My japanese songs playlist previously only consisted of vocaloid songs, now it's full of Anime Opening/Endings and sometimes OST's too (even though most of them don't have lyrics).

A few popular Japanese songs also ended up in there, lol.

Thank you, anime adaptations for introducing me to a whole new world!

I was already an anime fan in general (shounen, josei, literally everything) so I already loved alot of jpop artists before getting into otome! Ive listened to alot of aritsts like Aimer, Yuuri, Lisa, Eve, and amazarashi, which are all pretty mainstream and popular artists in Japan, but otome has introduced to me a lot more underground artists that not many people know about!!

Some of my favourite ballads are Piofores ending song and Nightshade good ending song. They make me feel like a bride running off into the sunset with her groom ❤️‍🩹

I used to listen to the game OP and also their anime adaptation OST, but not really anymore 😅 Back then i like Fujita Maiko a lot, she sang a couple of otome games ost back then, her voice is soo magical. feels like i was in the story too
