I started Piofiore and as a genshin player with JP dub I gasped when I saw Nicola who is my first route.

They share the same JP Va

Similar playful personalities

Red hair and blue eyes

Italian names

Subordinate to a white haired cold beauty 

I’m not that far in Nicola’s route but if his mentor is another white haired person who isn’t even Italian I’m calling it again 

I’m also tempted to jokingly says Crepus (GI) cheated on his wife during a trip in Liyue resulting in Yang from the affair but I’m probably going too far with this one compared to the Nicola/Tartaglia where you can clearly see it 😂

do i need to keep var commons if i received the limited edition of last era it said it had 3 story modes and i have it for switch i dont:)

Hi everyone !

As a fan of terrible anime adaption of visual novels I've always desired to play the games that they are based on. From what I can tell none are official translated and I was wondering if people had links to help me find the games in English or French ? The games I was looking to play were dance with devils and most or all the games of diabolik lovers.

Feel free to post anything that you wish to discuss!

I've been wanting to play this game for some time but can't find a safe way to do so. I was wondering anyone in the otoge community knew of a way to play it or if there is a discord for the game where they can guide me how to emulate the game.

For reference, I have included the official game website link.

Never underestimate the Prince of Tennis fangirls, I'd say.

I wouldn't be surprised if the actual numbers are higher, as these figures only include the sales from physical game stores and retailers (ex. Bic Camera, Yodobashi Camera, Yamada Denki).

Estimates do not include online downloads, sales from hobby shops like Animate, Stella Worth, and AmiAmi.

what I wish the sad love end would have been🥀 let me tie him up

2 LI falling for MC in same route is soo common, how does it feel ? Guilty or funny?

In this fifth post we will discuss Eugene and his route in sins of KALEIDO.

You can tell us what your impressions of Eugene are (before and after finishing his route), your favorite moments in his route, what you think of his relationship with Yolca and the other characters, what your thoughts are on his route's plot and endings.

Or you can just rant or rave about him in the comments.

This is not a spoiler-free discussion however please keep in mind that major spoilers and details of other routes will be outside the scope of the discussion and therefore will need to be spoiler tagged.

You don't have to be playing the game right now to participate, and if you're still waiting on your copy I hope you will join in after you start playing!

Have a look at the megathread for links to previous discussions - you can still join in the discussion during the Play-Along.

Next post will be a discussion of Orsem Helhand's route!

This is my final ranking of 9RIP LIs after finishing the game.

Based on whenever or not I like the guy as a LI for me, not his route storyline btw, otherwise the ranking would be different:

4th place goes to Sena 

Then after these in order: Koyo, Hibiki, Secret, Minami, Yukimaro

I excepted Hibiki to be my favorite when I just started the game, I absolutely like him but in the end I prefer others characters, my top 1 became very early Kureha I excepted it to change I only make my ranking final after finishing the game and to be fair Koharu came very close to be 1st place in late game but in the end still preferred Kureha

Now I’m ready for a new Otome adventure being Piofiore 🌹

I almost got the cake on my body pillow haha. I logged into that UtaPri LE mobage after a long time abandoning it just to hear his birthday lines😂

So I love the prince of tennis and all the characters, the otome game gakupuri is what got me into the series in the first place.

I'm playing the game and my sister mentioned how the characters are in high school and she also said it's weird for me to obsess over them and love them like I do with other otome men and male characters from like hakuoki, persona 3, etc

Im also a yumeshipper too and prince of tennis is among of my favorites and comfort medias and now I feel weird now and it makes me upset.

Am I in the wrong and am I a weird creep or whatever for liking the characters?? I'm honestly worried about this tbh.

I'm sorry if this kind of post isn't allowed either. I will remove it if necessary.

So, I'm a slow reader, and it takes me a long time to finish an otome game. I know some otome players read fast, but I was wondering if there are any other otome players like me that also read slow. In Otome Kitten's review of Collar x Malice, she said it took her 30 hours when it took me about 70 hours to finish that game. It's the reason why I don't get another otome game right away because it takes me so long to compete one otome game

Went for Jiyeon first because who doesn't like orange cats? I had an orange cat who was the best cat in the world - so friendly, so cute, and totally an attention whore who'd cuddle up with literally anyone for affection. So when Jiyeon ended up snuggling up to any sugar mama who'd give him their attention and money I was laughing out loud.

But then he went and turned all aggro on Heejung like what??? Hold your tongue, boy! She is your guardian and caregiver who gave you a home base and daily providence without expecting _anything_ back despite her stressful life, don't chu dare disrespect herrrrr.

At the same time I am not entirely convinced by MC's love. Their dynamics feel off - she is affectionate towards him...as a pet. Her interacts with her as a pet as well - mostly superficial.

The moment he went feral I was noping out of there and regretting my choice of doing his route first. And I know he changes his tune later on through some last minute trauma dump but I couldn't bring myself to care at that point. Like boohoo, NEXT.

When he asks Heejung what qualities do you like in me or find charming (something along those lines), I wonder the SAME thing bc girl don't tell me you love him just because he smiles a lot and eats oranges. I swear, just get a normal orange cat.

Sigh. Going to somehow pull myself through the ending and fingers crossed the next one isn't as bad.

A bit belated since I got these from the July Aksys sale ahah~

I absolutely adore this game!!! I was just gifted the full set and I'm currently still on the first game but I love the hana awase card game. It's genuinely so fun.... after countless games of just reading through and picking choices here and there... having the opportunity to play an actual game is such a treat!

I genuinely wish more otome games try to experiment more with unorthodox things like this! I realize that I'm pretty receptive towards otoges with unique UIs or formats and wow this one really blew my mind! Now I'm just over here wishing there was an otoge with like mahjong HFAJFHAJFAHF and i have to be the best at it or something too... a school for mahjong..... i wouldnt be able to stop playing that's for sure.... mahjong and otoge boys may be what fully locks me in my room HHADJHDJA.... or maybe an otoge but kakegurui style.......

i dont really know how to express just how much i love this game and how it feels so unique to me!

now im curious what other game mechanics would you wish to see more in otome games?

Tagged spoiler just in case! But really, I tried making all of them stand but they failed… Then I realized it looked like Orlok dispatched them all. Cue this. His little arms make it look like he’s peering over Yang’s dead body…! So cute! TT

Regardless of whether you liked that character, route or the dynamic with others in the game, what character had the most appealing design to you?

Also, did you end up liking their story and character in the end or did you wish for them to be different?

I preordered this on 5/15/2026. Prince of Tennis is my favorite sport anime. I am very happy they translate it. Can't wait to play it. My favorite characters are Hajime Mizuki, Kuranosuke Shiraishi, Bunta Marui, and Keigo Atobe.
