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. Please remember, all reviews are subjective to the reviewer, so there may be times you may disagree with what I write – and that is absolutely ok. Just because I do not like a game, doesn’t mean you are a bad person for liking it. 😂
1. Where can I find the walkthrough for game _____ ?
Google the game name + the word 攻略.
2. Where can I buy/import Japanese otome games?
Try Amazon Japan or make a Japanese Nintendo E-Shop account.
3. Do you plan to review ________ ?
Since there’s barely any otome game releases period, if by now I have not reviewed a game that’s been released, I am probably not going to review it. There are many reasons which I won’t go into but honestly I think after 10+ years my brain is just tired of reviewing every game that comes out. I mostly just buy games that are made by a reputable writer/team from Otomate or if it looks interesting enough to preorder. I rarely buy localized games especially if I have previously played it.
4. Are Japanese Switch games region free?
Yes you can buy physical or digital copy and play them on either your English or Japanese account. Please note however you will need a Japanese account to access the Japanese e-shop and you will need to buy prepaid e-shop Japan cards as they do not accept foreign credit cards.
5. How come I can no longer comment on the posts?
Effective February 2023, I’ve decided to permanently close commenting on this blog. I realized I really don’t want to have to deal with clearing spam on a daily basis and attracting some uninvited drive by trolls. While I had a decent amount of commenters in the past, most people now interact with me via Twitter and the comment section was just turning into a burning dumpster fire I had to clean up every week. Sorry to those who enjoyed the discussions we had here!
6. What’s up with all the RPGs on this blog? I thought this was an otome game blog.
I’m sorry to disappoint you, but otome games are a dying genre and I’ve moved on back to greener pastures. 😂
7. What happened to the blogroll? (´・ω・`)
Due to there being a ton of dead blogs on it I decided to completely get rid of it. I’m sorry to those of you who still have active blogs, but I can’t be bothered to keep up with it anymore. There’s very few otome game bloggers out there and now they’re spread out between wordpress, youtube and twitter. You can use google if you ever need to find them!
8. What happened to the shopping guide?
Due to the fact that there’s so many localized titles now, most people just buy the games in English and very few import nowdays. Since I rarely import physical editions outside of CD Japan I figured I didn’t want to keep an outdated guide on my blog so I removed it.
9. What happened to your Twitter?
Ever since the Elongated Muskrat took over the site went to shit and basically made most of my posts invisible cause I don’t wanna pay him $10 a month to be on a shitty ad filled dumpster fire. Therefore I’ve basically abandoned my account over there until either someone else makes the site less shitty, or it sinks like the Titanic. Instead any kind of mini blog related updates will now be in the corner of the top of the sidebar along with my usual blog posts and reviews. To find me elsewhere check out my carrd.
