Confessions of an Otome Gamer: It’s Okay NOT to Play the Latest Game

January 20, 2022August 10, 2025

It’s been a while since my last Confession and that’s because I didn’t have anything I needed to get off my chest. But, it’s a new year and with it comes the promise of new game releases and the inevitable pull we as gamers feel to keep up with the…

Confessions of an Otome Gamer: Indie Otome are BETTER than Otome Games

July 4, 2021August 10, 2025

I know, potentially polarizing opinion incoming–don’t @ me. But, if you’ve been following me for awhile it shouldn’t be such a big shock that I prefer indie otome games over the more “traditional” Japanese otome games. I mean on a very basic level, indie otome games are much more accessible…

Confessions of an Otome Gamer: How I Got My Hakuoki Kyoto Winds Art Book

January 8, 2021August 10, 2025

I started this series as a way to get personal with you all and share my thoughts about things happening in the otome community or share fun stories and anecdotes about being an otome fan. So, for the new year I wanted to share a story that is definitely one…

Visual Novels Are Long or Why I haven’t finished that review yet…

July 29, 2020August 10, 2025

Blerdy Tribe, I’ve been rather inactive lately and for that I apologize, but real life got kinda hectic for a while there and I just didn’t have the time or the energy to read through 100k+ visual novels. I’m human. But, that brings me to something that I have been…

Confessions of an Otome Gamer: Otome Game Fans are REAL Gamers

July 14, 2020August 10, 2025

So, when I wrote my anime gatekeeping essay, I was actually attempting to write about gatekeeping in the games community. But, I ended up running super long with the intro and rather than writing a ridiculously long post on gatekeeping, I decided to split the difference and write two separate…

Confessions of an Otome Gamer – Using Guides and Walkthroughs

May 16, 2020August 10, 2025

Hey, Hey Heroes, Travelers, and Wandering NPCs! I’ve been running this site for the past five years, and it just occurred to me that I don’t really talk at length about my gaming process. Sure, I drop a passing phrase or two every now and again in my reviews, but…

Coffee Talk Tokyo is finally here! This is one of my cozy comfort series... just chill vibes, good convos, and fun cafe drinks. I have a type and it's ✨️ THICC ✨️ Apparently I've been sleeping on Orcs... because the demo for NecOrcMancer has me wanting to expand my romantic prospects. That time I accidentally made my character a little too hot... So, that was your takeaway?! What would you do if a hot exorcist knocked on your door? ✨️Black Magical Girl transformation!✨️ Nobody can tell me representation isn't important! When I tell you at my BIG AGE I was giddy seeing a black girl transform into this cute magical girl outfit... I mean I was kicking my feet under my desk the whole time! Knee Deep in Love has not 1, not 2, but 3 yanderes to romance and Milo is the alpha Yandere! Man is the reddest of red flags! Happy Monday! As a Black woman gamer and otome lover, I don't often see characters that look like me as the leading ladies of the games I play... and that's just sad. Black girlies love otome games too! Where is my otome where a gorgeous Black girl is swept off her feet by a hot 2D man?! Giving the Grim Reaper voice acting is bad for my heart 💗 Not them getting THE @jonahscottva for our babyboy #adatewithdeath #indiegame #romancegame
