Yeah, I actually try to buy otome games even if they aren't fully what I like, just to support them - only full games, though, I don't like that free-to-play model and won't support it.

Yes please. I'm actually crawling through Arcana Famiglia at the pace of an asthmatic snail because my Japanese isn't particularly good (understatement). There are a lot of cool Otome VN. Also, I'm pretty sure there is a market out there, judging by the many crappy otome games on iTunes, where every character route

Fun fact: I had a kid's book about the Schmetterling ("schmettern" means "to bang, to clang") and the Lindwurm (wyvern, dragon, "lind" means "soft, delicate"), who wanted to exchange names, because, well, their names fit the other much better.

The only one I can think of off the top of my head would be Diabolic Lovers, an adaptation of an Otome VN. As such, it has a whole group of Bastard Boyfriends falling into the usual categories (glasses guy, twins, deliquent guy, shotacon (shudder)). It's basically Twilight's mentally disturbed, abusive, crack addicted

Oh, there are tons of manga with VERY rapey girl + boy content (check out the Bastard Boyfriend trope for that).

It's pretty typical for slightly erotic love manga/anime that one of the participants has to be "forced" to enjoy it - which sounds super creepy (and often is), but we should not forget that similar structures are still used in western romance novels (you know, where the sexy count ravages the equally sexy heroine).

I feel myself reminded of Sea Dracula, the tabletop RPG about animal lawyers and fierce dance offs.

Shuuuuuuu! *shakes fist*

I'm torn. As much as I enjoyed Hatoful Boyfriend (and enjoy my Otome visual novels), a lot of the copycats (meat, sushi, bear dating...) did not have the original's charm and originality. This still looks like it could be fun, as it is about more than just weird dating. Murder mystery, yay.

I'm sure it would be very uncomfortable. Just the thought of tight strings cutting into my breasts... ow, ow, ow. That's not even boob prison anymore, it's boob torture. I cringe in sympathetic pain.

Oh, that's even more likely. I hope it's less lethal, or the café will loose its customer base pretty fast.

Is that... is that defeated shadow curry?

But no way to play the female protagonist from P3P, right? I actually like her much better than her male counterpart (though he is kind of a cute woobie).

Yeah, both the movies and the games had over the top, campy, B-movie plots. In RE6, whatsherface insisted on not telling Leon the reason to come to a creepy, zombie-infested castle, because "he would not believe her" (which, of course, was an annoying move to keep information from the player). I would have loved for

I also love how the manga(and thus this anime) basically exists as a "TAKE THAT!"/middle finger to shoujo manga. This is because before doing Nozaki-kun, Nozaki-kun's mangaka actually did legit shoujo manga, but his manga was flat out called one of the worst shoujo series to ever exist. So he got payback.

"Ah, Tanabata! Now, what should I wish for? Rule the world from the shadows? Conquer the world by force? The mad love of a fallen angel? Wait, I know! I want to become a famous artist!"

I love how they nonchalantly add even more weirdness. "Let's go jogging! Oh, a nice shrine! Green pastures! The postapocalyptic ruins of skyscrapers!"

You mean like the famous Dirk Anger? (Oh Nextwave, I still love you)

I'm not a fan of fighting games, but I will still play this, if only for the VN parts.

You don't have to play the earlier Persona games, as every game has it's own story, tone, and theme. The protagonists are "silent" protagonists, and a new one in each game. There are a few cameos and easter eggs, but nothing major to connect the games.
