For me personally its Canaria Record, they really know how to write a psycho and dark story, bleak even. With how sometimes they dont hold back in making a scenario that i cant really think something like that could possibly happened, cough Happy Re-birthday and Shinai Naru Thanatos cough, its scary how a person can do smth like that even tho its in fiction, another circle i can think of dark otome is bonecage and parasite garden. Regardless I still enjoy it, how about you guys what circle do you think have the most dark story and what's your favorite dark otome cd? :giggle:
 
I get it!!! I love parasite garden 'cause their guys can be just plain crazy HAHA. Sometimes, for no reason at alllll (ie. 203号の隣人は鍵束一つ残して消えた, MY SWEET BUNNY CAGE). They also make surprisingly cute trashy guys though, my fav being from 元セフレくんに彼氏代行を頼んだ結果 and あんたは俺以外じゃ満足できないもんね マゾ豚ちゃん.

As for dark stories, 黒い令嬢 is one of my favs!!! I love messed up family lines and they are exceptional at that. 濡羽の家の祟り婚 series changed my life... There's also 脊髄ピアス, who is like True Cruelty when it comes down to it. I cannot listen to their stuff in one sitting, and I have to be in the right headspace 'cause it makes me physically ill. 幽玄トラオム is also quite good when it comes to horror scenarios. I personally like えーくんの遺書 and 幼なじみが色んな方法で殺してきて夏が終わらない~
 
Among commercial game labels, Karin Entertainment and Honeybee Black tend to release otome games with a darker style.
I really like the games from both of these companies.

wow you really now quite a lot! 😆 i like the two title from parasite garden you've mentioned its chilling. as for the trashy boys from them, i like Go home Megumu, when you kidnap a pain in the ahh person lol

ohh the の家の祟り婚 series, i only manage to listen to summer and spring vol, havent listened to the all the vol to know the full story so i guess i will look listen to it again!

for 脊髄ピアス its new for me! havent listened works from any of them but they have quite a long story, i take a quick look in the synopsis, what do you mean more than 4 hours to one title? :oops:

and last 幽玄トi quite enjoy ラオム 幼なじみが色んな方法で殺してきて夏が終わらない~ tho i feel bad for MC who keeps getting murdered just bcause she want to go to the festival with her senpai, the ending is very nice plottwistt.

i can see how you like dark works, thank you for recommending some for me too, i'll look forward to listen to those title! 🫶

ohh im actually talking about the drama cd label, im sorry if the title confuse you but thank you for your answer, later when i want to play some dark game, i remember to search from that company first!:giggle:
 
personally it's Rejet for me..
Black Wolves Saga really fucked me up (in a good way (✿◡‿◡) ) for years after playing it..
when you think the darkness has reached peak, BAAMMM there are more..

Omg, I've heard many people mentioning Black Wolves Saga! The way you describe it makes me curious about the game. I love it when a dark story surprise me with another dark element, especially just when you think things can't possibly get any worse lol 😆 if you still remember it even after years of playing it, i wonder how badly this game would traumatize me when i played it 😭

ooofff, I think it would traumatize anyone preeetty bad, from the storyline to characters background story and how they unveil to the current timeline is just sooo well written it made me crave darkness (✿◡‿◡)
The game just got ported to switch and honestly I'm sooo eager to re-play it again(*/ω\*)

Megumu is actually my favorite parasite garden boi HAHA. Shhh he just has is a bit of a foul mouth, he's 1000% cutieful~ The heroine is also accidentally hilarious and together they make a cute pair dynamic.

As for Tatarikon, Summer was my fav volume but it ties together if you listen to them all, 'specially Winter~ Can't believe it's been almost ten years since it's been released... Maybe I'll have to dig out my physicals eventually if it's harder to come across.

And don't forget to check out the tags for 脊髄ピアス's stuff! This is a real warning from me LOL. ヒロインを潰え is maybe cruelest character I've heard Mitsuhashi voice and the first time I've felt my ears ring... Their shortest work is still over three hours so expect lots of story and complex characters~ Hope you find something new you'd like!!! Those were more narrative heavy stuff, so you might also like characters from pRessest Love or ヤミ病みメンズ? They make more meroi yandere types ❤️ HIGH FIVE for dark work enjoyers haha

Sorry, I didn't notice that...!
But as mentioned above, some of Rejet's works also lean heavily toward the yandere/psycho style (?)
So Rejet's drama CDs are pretty interesting, too~!

So happy there's another Megumu appreciator! 💕 right? like even tho he has foul mouth he did help MC to get her life together thats what i like about him XD he and mc really have a unique dynamic thats rare in drama cd,i want to applause parasite garden writer who cook this story 😆

woww, i gues i have to listen to the other volume too if you praise it like that! i have the other two volume, just havent get the chance to listen to it! i'll listen to those two volumes soon, i wonder how the conclusion of the cursed family is! :devilish:

i like complex story! why your ear rings? does Mitsuhashi yell a lot in ヒロインを潰え? 😵‍💫

For the other two labels, i prefer ヤミ病みメンズ over Presset Love, maybe because i don't really like when the guy raise their voice when they get angry or when they hit/punch MC (except for spanking, i do like that one 🤭), i feel bad for her. That's why i haven't listened too much of Pressest Love works.

and high five to another dark work enjoyer too! 😍🤝

its okay! i've listened to several rejet works too! and yes it can be quite dark, one of their works that i really like is Oz to Himitsu no Ai, the fourth key vol (Shian) is my fav cause how yandere he is! and the background of the MC is very sad

i also like Diabolik Lovers and Wasurenagusa! although i havent listened to all volume due to how many season they have.

the one that left impression for me is the Bloody Bouquet especially Mukami Kou volume where it went from ichaicha to mc wanna kill herself so fast! 😵‍💫 im glad it have happy end!

what about you? what drama cd works do you like from Rejet? :giggle:

Among circles that produce dark, story-rich drama CDs, I like Canaria Records for commercial projects and Yuhyun Traum for doujin works! I like how Canaria Records creates horrific yet realistically dark stories even in their commercial works; 😱🤭 the Rebirth Day and Thanatos series were amazing! I like Yuhyeon Traum circle's works because it has a bit of a fantasy mystery vibe with a detective-style feel, almost like watching a horror movie! It has a slightly sad and wistful feel, so the story is very deep! 🌊😭
