Frequently Asked Questions
Since I appear to get a few similar questions from time to time I figured a general blog FAQ would be easier. With this in mind, anything asked in comments that’s already in this faq will either be ignored or considered as spam and deleted so PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY thank you.
1. Where can I download otome games!?!?!
Not here please look elsewhere.
2. Where did you get game _____ in English??
I do not play any games in English except any fan made games. All my games are played in original Japanese format. Typically fanmade games can be found at the Ren’Py forums or in their wiki under game list. All my tumblr screencaps/posts are manually translated with photoshop (which isn’t even that well done so it should be obvious they are shops not Engilsh games lol.)
3. Where can I find the walkthrough for game _____ ?
Please see my sidebar where it says “otome game guides”. One of the sites there will have a list of games. The other option is to google the game name + the word 攻略 if you’re lazy. For newly released games there aren’t that many guides and typically walkthroughs are posted on 2ch.
4. How do I get a custom icon in my avatar when I comment on this blog?
You need to register at Gravatar, upload a custom image and when you type in your comment use the email address you registered your gravatar with. Alternatively if you register a wordpress.com account you can edit your avatar through that as well as it’s connected with Gravatar.
5. Where can I buy otome games?
6. Do you plan to review ________ ?
I have a pretty huge backlog and I’m pretty much going down the list of every otome game made so most likely yes. However I will not be reviewing any old R-18 games cause bleh rape. I will not be touching anything by KOEI as I just don’t like the art and lol non-speaking heroines. I had enough of that with Amnesia. （ಠ_ಠ）Also I will not be touching crap like Crimson Empire ever again cause the hell with your crappy systems Quin Rose. Also if it wasn’t obvious already, I will never play or review BL games.
7. I want to download Android otome games but in the market it says it’s incompatible with my phone?
To be able to download Japanese restricted games you need to have a rooted phone and Market Enabler app. If you are not rooted, or don’t know what that is, unfortunately you have to just give up. I will not help you with rooting your phone, please search for wikis & XDA forums for that information. Additionally I have no info on how to download apps for iphone as I do not own one.
8. How can I register for Yahoo Mobage?
If you want to play the web version you can just register and login with a Yahoo Japan account for free. If you want to play the cell phone games on your android or iphone, point your phone to sp.mbga.jp and download the app directly from their site. (You need to make sure to allow installation Non-Market apps in your options.) This will tie your account to your phone so you’ll only need to register a username & password without registering an email. Warning however, this method while protecting you from Mobage’s spam, you will not be able to do a lot of mobage features such as sending messages or updating your profile etc. without having a registered email address.
9. How do you broadcast your PSP games?
Remotejoy Lite. You need to have a modded PSP in order to do this.
10. When do you usually broadcast otome games?
I try to broadcast around 7~11PM EST on the weekdays and most of the day on the weekends starting in the afternoon.
