Here are all my reviews of the mentioned games:

[israfels_sepulchre-qpgl]

I am absolutely praying for the Olympia Soirée sequel to be localized; the first game is my all-time favorite otoge!!! I am also very excited about the 9 R.I.P. localization, as I adore spooky things! I'm already planning to buy the limited edition!

SUZUNOSUKE ART IN AN OTOME GAME IS A DREAM COME TRUE

[NatyraAshla]

I'm really looking forward to R.I.P. 9 and still waiting for an English localization for Hiiro no Kakera. I have been waiting 10+ years for that one. Hopefully we will get it one day.

[amnal]

Ahhh thank you for this video! It’s so exciting to see them all lined up like this! I’m becoming more and more intrigued by Honey Vibes even though I didn’t think much of it at first. I also like the aesthetic of Fuyuzora sacrifice.

[x.lood.x]

I am literally waiting for the day they would localize Jakou no Lyla like I can’t 🥲🩷

[zahrak]

I used to read otome games on the psvita and we barely got anything in english back then lol, i'm so glad the otome genre is getting popular enough that english releases increased

[tsukihyouka]

I can't wait for Mistonia no Kibou, Bunnies Highshool, Gensou Manege, and Honey Vibes (it has Saitou Souma and Nobuhiko so of course!). For the sequel/FD I'm waiting for Prison beyond the Steam (mainly curious about Sachsen as a LI to be honest) and of course, Virche Epic Lycoris and the 9 R.I.P sequel. OveRequiem Z also seems interesting, I can't wait to have more info about it. Great video as usual !😊

[artanomia]

Where did you get your top? It's so cute, I'm obsessed with the flutter sleeves and tie collar!
Thank you for this coverage! I'm so glad that otome games are getting a comeback!

[millasgameroom]

So many great games coming up! In terms of localisations, I'm most looking forward to Temirana, Mistonia no Kibou as well as the Virche and Steam Prison fandiscs.

In terms of localisation speculation, I really wanna see more legacy Otomate titles localised above all else. Otomate seem to have finally taken notice, so I believe we'll start getting them next year after Battlefield Waltz. I have a feeling the Suuran Digit port will get localised, and maybe Clock Zero now it's been picked up for a Chinese loc. Maybe even Hiiro no Kakera given how popular it is.

In terms of non-Otomate titles, I still believe we'll get UtaPri and a Ruby Party title at some point soon (Ruby Party haven't made a new game for a few years, it would make sense if their silence is because whatever it is will come out worldwide).

[undertakerevi]

First of all, thank you for all your work. Secondly, I would like to point out how much your quality has improved in terms of sound, lighting and editing. We can really see how much effort and time you put into your videos. So again thanks and keep going 🥰☺

[sofiafernandez]

I pray that there's a tiny hope for Wand of Fortune localization! I'm interested in Fuyuzono Sacrifice and Bunnies High School, I hope they get picked for localization as well 🌸 Thank you for this great video! I'm so excited to play the upcoming games!

[miizusoup]

When I saw all those announcements I couldn't believe it!! So happy that otomate is trying out more new things ^^ Personally I'm the most excited about honey vibes and bunnies highschool (i wonder what the bunny has to do with the game?) since I love my fictional men as red flags lmao 😭 My wallet will suffer soon...

[elisabethaziz]

that honey vibes cg in the thumbnail looks really interesting 👀

[purpleflower]

I saw the teaser for Bunnies High School. It looks so cool and I hope it gets an English localization.

[mbuszka]

I'll say it till I die : *CLOCK ZERO SHUUEN NO ICHIBYOU* needs leave localization hell. REALLY! 😩
From games You talked about:
Hiiro no Kakera - I am as old, as I remember playing it on PSP... But either it is my age, or SWITCH 'polishing', but it really looks less cool graphically to me... 😅
Horror otome - I love HORROR. I want to keep being interested in otome. So, color me interested. 🔥 👻
Side Kicks (SERIAL KILLER!) = YES. 🤷🏻‍♀️
BUNNY HIGH SCHOOL( *exactly* I thought about Kenka Banchou Otome, but I heard, game director is same, like for KBO? That can explain also uniforms similarity. 😉)
Over Requiem Z (bloodthirsty killers!/ degenerating darkness. Me? YES, please.)
Byakko... Must check characters. 🤔
UNLOGICAL - as logic fan... I found that game interesting. Should check more about it, but *execution* of course is key. ❤

9R.I.P - will need to see it
Steam Prison FD - Maybe will make me get to end SP... first road... One day. 😅

Neon Mafia - YES. I wait for VOLTAGE INC to pay for sin of NOT VOICING *MASQUARADE KISS* - if that game got voiced, it will be BRILIANT for me. Especially with quirky hotties trio cruel cats there. ❤🙌

Despera Drops - YES. Especially for silver head giving me Saito of Hakuoki vibe. Just so it was good game... 🙈
Makes me remember PSP times of game, that name I currently forgot, but about being trapped in Amusement Park by pig that obviously wanted and failed being Monokuma. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 🤣

Oh, Mistonia getting localized? MUST CHECK. 💯
... Even if You make this game sounds TOO ROMANTIC for me, I'll check. ☺️ 😅

AND Utakata no Uchronia. Game, that I was interested in, but after Your review am bit worried of. But, yeah. "Bloody incident", so maybe it IS for me.. 🤔

Bustafellows S2... Still didn't play bought 1st part. Characters just... Don't resonate with me... 😅

Battlefield Waltz - Am I interested? Seeing that dark hari handsomer, that uncheck 90% of my "otome guy attractive" traits... Looks like I am. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Temirana - interesting graph, semi-interested at this moment... Through 'untalented knights' sounds amusing, if not overdone to point of annoying... 🤔

Gensou Menage - me: seeing graph: HEEEEL NO, TOO CUTE. You: this game is dark, BRUTAL and SAD. Me: Ok. Keep talking.. Will keep eye on that. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[imkirumi]

I’m absolutely ecstatic about the news that Olympia Soirée is getting a sequel 😭it was my first ever otome and I hope it gets localized asap 🙏💞

[angelichourstonight]

I'm so excited!! I love seeing promising otomes coming out😽 love ur hair btw

[angietrif]

Olympia Soirée was my first ever otome game and it’s my favorite until this day so I’m really looking forward to playing it once it gets localized. Either that or I’ll have to ramp up the Japanese studies lol

[organicangelalexial]

I want that byakko game to be localized in English I want more cultural fantasy games
