A Blossoming Spring of Otome News this April 2023!

Global international fans have been feeling lucky this April with a flurry of exciting announcements for upcoming Otome game releases. Aksys also held a live stream on Youtube yesterday with some otome announcements and Jack Jeanne Limited Edition unboxing.

We had some interesting March otome News. Here are some April otome round-ups, starting with April releases and then moving on to Upcoming releases Announced in April….

April releases

Sui Claude’s Main Story came out beginning of April with Voltage inc’s latest game PLust Loving U So True. Please note it is a Love Choice type of game. Available on the Love 365 Voltage app.

Rio’s Book 2 story is now available within the Court Of Darkness app. Available on iOS and Android.

Obey Me! Nightbringer was released on 12th April 2023 by NTT Solmare. Set in the past from the original Obey game where MC and Solomon travel back in time and the brothers do not remember MC. This game features a Ruri-Chan Rhythm game which is harder and more time-consuming than the dance battle mini-game featured in the original game. However I do like listening to the character songs and 3d animation features added.

Married to the Mafia was released around 22 April 2023 by Genius. Available on the Apple and Google Playstore.

Supernatural Nightlife Lovers: Blood Bond is the latest release by Genius.

Synopsis from Nintendo Website.

Romantic love comedy with six unique students from abroad

Spring has arrived, and love is in the air! Get ready to fall head over heels in love with the unique characters in the fully-voiced romantic visual novel game, “Dormitory Love.”

Set in a student dormitory in Tokyo, this game follows the story of Jun Minase, who suddenly finds herself working as the dorm manager for a group of international students.

With six love interests to choose from, there’s someone for everyone. You can pursue the calm and serious German, Felix, or the selfish yet charming femboy Frenchman, Guillaume. Alternatively, you might fall for the star basketball player from the United States, Josh, or the enigmatic and mysterious Chinese student, Ling. Perhaps you’ll be drawn to the gentle and carefree Russian photographer, Sasha, or the cynical British nerd, Sean.

As you guide Jun through the spring and summer seasons, you’ll experience a variety of seasonal events.

Features include full voice acting, nearly 100 still images, and six rich love stories to experience.

Upcoming Releases announced in April!

During Aksys Livestream it was revealed the release date for Radiant Tale will be July 27th 2023. the Limited Edition will include a soundtrack collection from the game.

Synopsis from website:

Tifalia longs for an eventful life. One day, a group called CIRCUS comes to town – but their show is a dismal failure. Lamenting their lack of success, CIRCUS wanders into the inn where Tifalia works with her aunt. After relaying the events of the day, CIRCUS discovers that Tifalia might be able to help them and recruit her to act as producer for their dysfunctional troupe. Will they master the ring? or just be mediocre?

A crazy dragon that loves to tickle, a spiked clown that doesn’t make you laugh, a water creature who doesn’t want to use water magic, an acrobat who doesn’t know how to entertain, a drunkard fur ball, an unmotivated leader, and an amateur producer who just joined.

Will they ever be able to perform for a crowd and bring down the house? or will they stay a 3 ring circus?

The Fan Disk to Norn9 Vars Commons has been announced by Aksys. Norn9 Last Era is set to release on 24 August. Limited Edition includes lots of goodies.

Jack Jeanne to be released 15 June 2023 by Aksys. Limited Edition comes with various goodies.

Even if TEMPEST Dawning Connections will be released in Summer 2023 by Voltage Inc. This is a Fan Disc to the Even if Tempest game. The FD is set to be released in Japanese and English simultaneously.

HuneX announced official website for Hana Awase New Moon in English and a few other languages. Seems like a good indication this dark romance will be available on Nintendo Switch in English in the near future.

I remember reading a review for this game and although it is a dark-themed game, Iroha is my favourite.
