A place to discuss otome games and related merch/events.

Rules

  1. Please stay on-topic: post about otome games.

  2. In an effort to keep this community more discussion-based, please only post fanart and the like if you made the art yourself. Your own fanart, cosplays, etc. are very welcome.

  3. Don't be a jerk.

3a. No bigotry or discrimination. This includes but is not limited to homophobia, racism, sexism, etc.

3b. Be respectful of other peoples' tastes. You may absolutely despise an LI and want to discuss it, and that's fine. Casting negative aspersions on or directly insulting people who love that LI is not fine. What we find interesting in fiction does not always directly translate to real-life desires.

  1. Please don't directly link to pirated content.

  2. Tag any NSFW content as such. If you are not sure whether to tag it that way, err on the side of caution and tag.

  3. Please indicate spoilers. The following format works on both Lemmy and Kbin, but if you are using an app it may not. See this comment for which apps handle spoilers.

Somehow, when I made an earlier post for this game saying its release date was announced for March 24, 2024, I failed to realize I was writing the post several months after March 24, whoops. I also earlier had something here about them releasing later than the real date in both Japanese and English. It has been brought to my attention that is incorrect: they actually released ahead of schedule in Japanese on March 21, and I do not think I ever found their English anticipated release date.

Was so excited to finally not have to link to Twitter because I could just link to the Nintendo page for the game, until I remembered there are two separate links, one for United States of America and one for Australia and EU, and the Tweet gives you both so I had to use the Twitter link to not give bias to one set (US or AU/EU) and inconvenience the other(s). :( Citing sources is important and it is kind of annoying the source is Twitter.

This looks really good so please consider backing it! If the art style looks familiar, that's because the art was made by the same studio as Save the Villainess^^

I'm really excited about this since the devs have been heavily promoting the game on the fediverse. The game itself looks very high-budget with its polished artstyle and animated sprites as well!

The game is fully voiced by a wonderful cast, and features s unique “What If?” story in addition to Aquasteed’s infatuation.

The protagonist was somehow reincarnated as the otome game “Ring of Lapislazuli” villainess Tiararose. Her story follows that of the game, and her engagement with Lapis Lazuli Kingdom crown prince Heartnight is broken off.

However, neighboring country Marinforest crown prince Aquasteed then proposes to Tiararose, and a sweet series of events that are not supposed to occur in the game unfold!?
