Hello! Welcome back to another post! Before I start off this post I would like to say that "7'scarlet" came out this week on the PSVita! And tomorrow Cybird's "Ikemen Revolution: Love & Magic in Wonderland" will come out! On another note I don't really have time for part 2 of that post of music that reminds me of otome games and routes. So who knows when I'll do it. Though this post is about mobile otome game companies. Since it seems that every company seems to be getting a library app for all of their games.
Now if you are wondering what they possibly are, then practically it is like Voltage's "Love 365: Find Your Story" app. They are app that have all of their games into one. So you have to make sure to transfer your games over into the single app. Even NTT Solmare seems to be getting/making one now. Even OKKO has one now. (Though I can't get it cause it's not compatible with my device, though I should check again.) I heard that companies are doing this since there seems to be this problem with itunes I think about them having either spam apps or something? (Do to them having multiples of the same type of game but in multiple languages.) So this is the whole reason for it.
Personally speaking though I'm not really a big fan of these types of apps and I prefer to stay with the standalones. Though I have no choice with Voltage since the standalones will be taken off once every game is on their Love 365 app. The whole reason for this is due to the fact that it no longer as the same unique set up that the stand alone has. Now it's all just like the library app color/design. Like when you open up a standalone you get to see its style and its own unique design. Though with library apps it loses that and just looks like the library app and the uniqueness is gone. Honestly I may be feeling over strongly or over sensitive about it but it really means a lot to me. Like it makes me be focused on just that app and story and really helps me immerse myself in it.
Though luckily someone who is a beta tester for NTT Solmare's library app showed what it is like and they keep that in it for each app! The only difference is that it has a added button to the menus so you can go back to the front/rest of your apps within the library app. So I'm app about that one at least! I also know that library apps help with storage and everything, so I guess that's a plus. Though this is all I have the time for in this post! Please comment down below about you guys think about these new library apps! With that I'll talk to you guys later!

A Continued Event! +Character Songs (Pt. 2)
Hello! Welcome back to another post and also the last part of the character songs post! (Honestly ended up switching the order a bit.) Though in part one of this I ended it saying that I wasn't fully satisfied with it. I more or less in the last post just explained what character songs are and how I got into them. (Which was through "Diabolik Lovers".) I would talk about my favorite character songs as well, but I honestly don't have any. Though I guess favorite character songs could also be your favorite character's own song as well, but personally I have no favorites.
Though I will say that I don't really go a search for character songs if I'm bored or something. Normally I only search for character songs after I either played the game or watched the anime. (I don't really like going to character songs that I know nothing about game and/or character.) That's when I go and search for their songs to see if they have any, and most otome games at least have one for each character (that you can romance).
(Also I'm not talking about mobile games or games like that, though Voltage Inc kinda has something like this. If you complete both endings in some games (I think it may only be in "Scandal in the Spotlight", though correct me if I'm wrong) then there is this short song for that guy that you bought the route for and finished both endings. (They also give you an option to just spend a few dollars to get it right away if you're to lazy to do both endings or whatever.)(Also, it's like this video with the song as well.))
With character songs I also try to find translations for them as well, since I like to know what I'm listening too. Also since the lyrics also explain and describe the character and sometimes their route as well. (Though this depends obviously, though most are like this.) So I feel like it would be useless to me to listen to a character song without reading the translations with it.
This will be the end of this post. I now feel satisfied about this topic, which closes it for now. For now though I'll talk to you guys later!

Hello! +Update
Hello! Welcome back to another post! I don't really have enough time to write out a full post for this week, so I decided to write about upcoming blog posts that I'll be posting (hopefully) in these weeks to come. So here they are! (Mostly in order, though it may change.)
-Music That Reminds You of Otome Games & Routes (Pt.2)
-Character Songs (Pt.2)
-Otome Library Apps
These are posts that I'm planning on making and uploading in these weeks to come! Please look forward to them and I'm sorry for the short/notice post, but it's better than posting nothing, and I would hate to not post at least something. With this I'll talk to yo guys later!

A Singing Event! +Character Songs (Pt. 1)
Hello! Welcome back to another post! This post is all about character songs! Honestly one of the reasons why I'm pushing off part two to the other post is because I'm on short time currently. (So this post may be a bit shorter.) So hopefully that one will be ready for next week! Though in my last post I did want to talk about Character songs again, so here we go!
For people who don't know what character songs are then basically they are songs that are sung by the characters in an otome game (/anime if the otome game has an anime). I'm pretty sure that for the people who've read my other musical post, then you should know by now how much I adore music. This makes me of course love character songs. Especially if I know the anime or have played the game or both. I mentioned this in another post, possibly the first post I talked about this on. But my first character song was "Kirisaki Carnival" sung by Kanato Sakamaki ("Diabolik Lovers" series.). From there it was all of the other Diabolik Lovers character songs. I don't really/fully remeber how I even stumbled upon it, but I do love it with all of my heart.
Though I would say that it probably had something to do with my huge "Diabolik Lovers" obsession I had back then. I just really know that I found it on YouTube in the morning and listened to it with English Subs. So I was probably searching for "Diabolik Lovers" videos that day. This is all the time I have for this post. Honestly I'm not fully satisfied with how much/what I talked about in this post, so this is part one! (Haha, sorry.) Though I would enjoy to hear how you first got into Character songs! For now though I'll talk to you guys later!

The Cafe's Playlist! +Music That Reminds You of Otome Games & Routes (Pt. 1)
Hello! Welcome back to another post! For this post I would like to talk about songs that aren't in otome games or made for them. Instead I'll be talking about songs that you here on everyday radio. In more detail, then songs that remind you of an otome game or a certain character. Even when you are listening to a song sometimes you just end up thinking about a certain character or game even if you don't mean too. On this blog I have talked about otome songs, background music, etc, but this time I'm not talking about the music in an otome game. (Though I still would like to revisit the topic of character songs, so expect a blog like that at some point.)This time I am talking about the music you hear in everyday life, but some or all of the lyrics make you think about a certain game or character.
Of course people can also feel and think this way with multiple things, but since this is an otome blog for the most part. Then that is what we will be talking about. But I really enjoy talking about music so yet again, here is another music post. So let's get into it!
Since I'm such an otome gamer and music fanatic, then of course I would have a character or game linked to almost every song on my playlist or at least most of them. Not even all the songs I listen too are based off of just one game or character. It could be multiple. Like for instance if I listen to a song that I found or started listening to a lot when I first got into otome games, then of course it would give me a nostalgic feeling. (Which it does.) Since a song that you listen to could also link to a memory or moment in your life or connect deeply to you. In my next post at the moment I'm planning on making it a post based off of songs that make me think of a certain character or game, then connect the lyrics to them/it.
So, I guess you can say that this was more of an introduction post than anything, but I hope it got you thinking as well and maybe you will go back and listen to some songs that may give you a feeling of a character or game. So for my next post I will be asking about what songs make you think about a character or game? (Even if the lyrics don't really fit with them, it could also be the feeling or idea of the song as well!) So for now, I'll talk you guys later!

Let's Continue From Where We Left Off! +Real Time Otome Games (Pt. 2)
Hello! Welcome back to another post! Surprisingly I actually decided to do a part two on this topic right away! In my last post I mentioned how I'm mostly talking about games like "Mystic Messenger" by Cheritz. Though in my last post I mostly talked about and summed it up about their new game that will be coming out called "The Ssum". Honestly I didn't even mean to talk about that game for the whole/most of the post. Though I will be summing up this topic in this post. In this post I will want to talk more about these types of games and more or less the idea of it. I would also like to mention about how you guys would feel if your favorite game ended up having a separate side game with this type of system.
Though one thing at a time. So I'll be starting this off with the idea/system of it. Honestly I actually really enjoy this. It makes the characters seem more realistic to me, even though we have to choose what we say and can't type what we can say. (Though I don't know for "The Ssum", since that is like just you and him, so we will see once the game comes out.) I enjoy the chatroom type of story/system as well. Because it's like I said, it seems more realistic, I don't really see it a lot, and I would like to say that it also makes me feel like I'm more in the story. Not only that but also since there are still some visual novel scenes and you end up with the character in the end if you choose right, then that still makes it known as an otome and still makes it enjoyable and more connected to the story. Something I also like is your private text messages with each other.
Though another thing I wanted to mention was, how would you react if your favorite game did this as a side game/thing? Honestly since it's just a thought, you don't really have to think about it that seriously. Though I feel like it would be quite interesting. Even if you aren't in it, but you are able to read the conversations in a group chat with all of the main characters/any characters from the game then that would be pretty cool and entertaining. Or maybe a chatroom for side characters, then one for the main ones. Or maybe you could even choose who's in each chatroom. Also you may be able to read their texts through each other off of the group chat? Though this is all an idea, though it would still be a fun thing to see.
For now though I'll end this post here. How do you feel about the idea of something side like, like this for one of your favorite games? Also how do you just feel like this overall? So for now, I'll talk to you guys later!

Let's Talk About The Present Situation! +Real Time Otome Games (Pt. 1)
Hello! Welcome back to another post! For this post I will be talking about real time otome games! More or less for people to get a gist of what I'm talking about then games like "Mystic Messenger". I mostly want to talk about this topic since Cheritz will be releasing a new game for IOS and Android called "The Ssum". It's like "Mystic Messenger" but also not, since it's more just you and goes off of your schedule and everything. (Check out the link below to the homepage for it to find out more.)
But I want to talk about this topic since I would like to know other people's thoughts on this a bit more. I personally think it's a cool idea and I'm actually quite excited to play this! The only problem more or less is playing it everyday and that it's technically endless. Though if I get hooked on it then I'll for sure play it everyday (I mean I login and play "Uta no Prince-Sama: Shining Live" everyday since the day it got released in English so I have faith in myself), but I guess I'll just have to wait and see what will happen.
Though I personally feel like this is something that I will get into heavily. Like I'll be quite hooked on it. I'm always down for some more interaction and story. Also since I loved how "Mystic Messenger" was and how you played it, since to me that was extremely fun (system wise) and yet also not good for anxiety. I still enjoyed it a whole bunch. I like the texting features and since this game seems to be based off of your schedule, then that will help with a whole lot of other things as well!
So I can't wait for this game to come out and for us all to start playing it! Though please comment down below your feelings for games like these and I'll be writing more about this topic (hopefully, since I'm bad at doing part two's of things) next week! So, for now I'll talk to you guys later!
