I'm expecting a stabilization in views as I finally get back to my origins: Dating Sims! Brooktown High; Konami's first and last attempt to bring the Dating Sim genre to the West, is part 1 of a 4-part series celebrating the 4th Anniversary to my channel.

You know what Baki and Kaiji have in common? Their spinoffs are way more entertaining than the originals; it's been awhile since the main series lost their spark. Hanchou probably sells better than Kaiji now. Gaia and Sikorsky is best BL ever.

I got my first Most Replayed graph thinggys in my Cindrellife video and why am I not surprised it's the part about Yuujiro's testosterone levels lol

It's Halloween, I review a 2025 game barely two months into release. [Machine Child]- a Princess Maker-like that took 9 years in the making, developed as a hobby by the acclaimed adult artist Oyari Ashito. Loli haters, don't watch this video. Optional Korean dub by yours truly.

I review Level-5's [Cinderellife]; a rather mysterious hostess/kyabajo RPG for little girls featuring cameos by cartoon characters from the 60s. Just who were the target audience? We'll never know.

youtube.com/post/UgkxQk-... Full release of Princess Maker: Children of Revelation has been postponed indefinitely. The entire development team has been laid off, so...

Oh yeah, Frontwing of the Grisaia fame is launching a visual novel with 32 characters; and after all these years we're finally getting an Otome game designed by Ooyari Ashito. Man, Nocchi male art are fans are eating well next year.

Machine Child has a self-censor option named 'Caring Mode'(While 配慮 directly translates to 'considerate,' it carries a deeper, more empathetic and kind nuance) for all your streaming/review needs. Currently the best-selling game in dlsite for several consecutive days. Maybe it just might hit Steam?

Shorts Ver.: youtube.com/shorts/mnVNU... Here's a short 'Slightly Ecchi(according to the package)' Psychic Romantic Comedy visual novel published by Takara. The 90's Anime Romcom vibes are strong in this one. But there's a BL ending! How about that.

www.dlsite.com/home/announc... MACHINE CHILD will probably be the game most spiritually close to the original Princess Maker series. After all, it's created by Lolicon Royalty Oyari Ashito(aka NOCCHI). After 9 years, it's finally done and will be on dlsite in September. Hope this hits Steam someday.

Happy Idolm@ster 20th as I go on a full-on review on 7(seven!!) ports for the OG Idol Sim, [Tanjou ~Debut~]. I didn't expect the review to be this long. But you gotta do what you gotta do, especially when there's not much info on it compared to its popularity back in the days.

store.steampowered.com/app/3438810 Early Access for Princess Maker Children of Revelation(or to me, K-Princess Maker) has a release date! As in tomorrow, Friday, July 4th, 2025. D-zard attributed the delay to Steam's review process. It's also available in English, so play it to your heart's content!

store.steampowered.com/app/3438810 D-ZARD missed their early access launch date for K-Princess Maker; it was expected at 'the end of May'. Asurajang(D-ZARD's other project) not doing well is another concern. Meanwhile, you can see the trailer, and apparently it will be available in English as well!

Noda Junko(VA for Hinomoto Hikari, the main heroine of Tokimeki Memorial 2) has attended this weekend's Tokimemo concert and wants a Tokimemo2 reunion live as well! Make it happen, Konami.

Wrestling with launching dmm player. iPad's running out of space and dmm being notoriously anti-foreign doesn't help. It used to work with VPN before the latest update; I've googled stuff to no avail. Anyways, here's my Gakumas 1st year report card. All girls(-Misuzu) have around 1.9mil fans.

Thanks to you Patreons' support, I finally have a Windows-11 running PC on a SSD! Wow, it boots up mere seconds. I've been using HDD thus far and Windows started just about the right time I wake up, do bathroom things and put away the dishes. My sibling's like, how did you even survive this long lol

Kokura Masashi(one of the original designers/illustrators) pointed out Konami did not acknowledge Tateishi Ryuga, the founding father of the Tokimeki Memorial series in the end credits. Must have thoroughly burned that bridge.

Some info from twitter... looks like Tokimemo POCKET exclusive heroines Naomi, Patricia and Kyoko are technically in Tokimemo Emotional... as background characters.

blog.naver.com/minsu22/2238... Meanwhile, Team Samgui's lead Jarm released some progress and blurred screenshots(young Karen appears to have short hair! How cute) on their fan-made Princess Maker Karen game. I talk about team Samgui in my Karen video around the 27-min mark. youtu.be/3DXziEFaJiE?...

blog.naver.com/princessmake... Looks like Princess Maker Children of Revelation is going through some development woes; release postponed til next year. The Early Access with the first 4 years of the game(+19 endings +2 'relationship' endings for two characters) will be available on the end of May.

Happy Tokimeki Memorial Emotional release day! Here's a review on the series that killed the franchise.

It's been awhile since I made a classic Breaking Up episode! Here's a dating sim based on a popular fetish manga that has close to nonexistent fetish content in it. Oh, and they're all adults.

I played through [Raw Danger!] for the first time for the Dokisui review(I only played the original Japanese title, Zettai Zetsumei Toshi 2). I just wanted to record some funny dialogue choices, but ended up beating the thing twice with all collectables. Best in the series no doubt.

In the early 2000s Irem made a name for themselves for developing dank but unique games for consoles. [Doki Doki Suikoden] is one of them; a Water Margin-inspired dating sim boasting 108 romanceable heroines.

Another (subjective)cult classic by Wang Ryong(The director of the unlicensed Dragon Ball live action movie www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gAt...). A faithful adaptation of the 1986 Hokuto no Ken film. Well not exactly, but it's the thought that counts.

blog.naver.com/princessmake... Occupants of the Demon Lord's Castle in [Princess Maker: Children of Revelation] Gatekeeper/Gardener/Elite Knight/Mage Clerk/Minister/Archmage/Acting Regent/Concubine/Jester D-Zard teasing all the Lucifon fans by not revealing him or the queen's portrait.

For Korea's March 1st Independence Movement Day and 1 year since Toriyama Akira has left us, I review the infamous unlicensed Korean Dragon Ball live action film.

tumblbug.com/princessmake... The official title for Princess Maker Karen is Princess Maker:Children of Revelation. Doesn't contain any new info outside of what I mentioned in my preview and YouTube Post, but it does have a lot of new and pretty graphics!

So I was checking out my new videos on mobile and Chocolate Kiss now has an ad attached to it? I know that YouTube places ads in certain cases even without the channel being monetized, but why this lol Maybe it's because it was uploaded on Valentine's Day with Chocolate in the title.

Happy Valentine's Day Update! Here are both Honmei and Giri chocolate for you! - [L.O.V.E 2 Parfe], the sequel to South Korea's first commercial Otome Game. - Debut of Shorts Review Series, 'Breaking Up Petit'. The first episode is Valentine's Day themed [Chocolate♪Kiss]. youtu.be/Vd0irbPMpWg

Tokimeki Memorial Emotion is slated for a May 2025 release, but it would probably be way economic/efficient to wait for the Switch2 to play it since it's backwards compatible. Meanwhile, I'll be saving up Patreon money.

www.youtube.com/post/Ugkxexe... Happy 2025! Here's more Princess Maker:Karen gameplay information. It's not shown in the video, but the developers claim the in-games chibi sprites are now way better.

Merry 25th! It's a Breaking Up Back-to-Back Special! After 19 years of procrastinating because no one bought me a steak dinner for motivation, I finally review South Korea's first commercial Otome Game, LOVE.

Merry Eve! Refrain Love is a rare Dating Sim with all the main characters being over 20. Spoiler: You refrain from nothing.

I look back at the cancelled [Princess Maker 4] by Ninelives, and give thoughts on the upcoming [Princess Maker Children of Revelation]aka Princess Maker:Karen(expected 2025 Q3 release) developed in South Korea. I also scroll a lot.

youtu.be/rtqCBoAgt9k?... Love the comment section for my McKenzie & Co video. Last time we got the actress for Elizabeth, and today an ex developer who shared some of their stories. Here's hoping more related staff will show up.

My video on Princess Maker Karen is now available for Patreons! It'll go public on the 18th. I didn't even try, and there's an unexpected tie with Booking Man(which I wrote in my Patreon post).

The cover of VChamp August 2000 issue states [World's First Exclusive Look at Princess Maker 4], and giving out Karen posters as a purchase bonus. They might be exaggerating, but Ninelives' Princess Maker 4(working title) did get a lot more coverage in S.Korean than in Japan.

Happy Halloween! Here's another School Festival Dating Sim with the famed Mikimoto Haruhiko (Macross,Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress) helming the character art, fully-voiced with super famous voice actors!

Japanese High School Drama=Fall School Festival is deeply engraved in most of our weeb brains. Here's a School Festival-centric Dating Sim that's considered a cult classic.. set in 2010 for some reason.

Free future video preview to thank my bluesky followers(seriously, thank you): One of November's stuff will be on my thoughts/what we know so far on Princess Maker Karen. We have the preview shown on TGS, and according to the funding page there will be more gameplay footage sometime this month.

eyes.png While I can't kill seven flies in one blow, I did review seven games in one video! Here I look at the genre of 'Girl's Game', games for girls that aren't Otome or BL.

Thanks so much for being patient. After 2 years and 2 months, the last chapter of the Creation Arc is done. No excuses; I was hardcore procrastinating. Future plans on Patreon. www.patreon.com/posts/inanna... Tapas: tapas.io/episode/3293... Webtoons: www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/in... #webcomic

The review for the sequel to the first Otome game franchise is here! A lot of things remain unchanged, with a dip in quality, but it's okay cuz we were so desperate at that time. Honestly, it's still not a bad game, albeit boring. Plus there were some new stuff, including 6 more romantic interests.

Wanted to upload this before the 27th passed in Japan, but a 7hr 23gb video uploading & processing took much longer than I thought. Anyhoo, here's my Tokimemo 30th Anniversary video 20 mins before midnight. A lot of pausing and stammering involved, but I do have timestamps.

Hotaru Soul is a sequel to a legendary Gei/Bara title that got turned into an all-ages bromance game(weird I know). Also, I'm doing a Q&A video.

youtu.be/rtqCBoAgt9k I take a look at a $1.5 mil budget American FMV Otome Game which came out about a year after Angelique. McKenzie&Co. is a 'Social Adventure Game' for tween girls which involves going to prom with a hot guy. Even made a fanart opening because it was April Fool's.

Family Soft has published quite a few a dating sims, one being Mystic Mind(also imported), where you can play as both genders(in the centre). But the romanceable guys look like ass and one being a straight-up perv. At least it's unique in a way like Yume Iroiro; you can dump them mid-playthrough.

On Valentine's, Day, I finally review a game with Valentine in the title. It currently has close to nil recognition in Japan, but a fairly well-remembered childhood game for quite a few South Koreans, all thanks to.. you guessed it, the Bundle CD culture.
