Otome games (sometimes shortened to otoge) are visual novels with a female protagonist, multiple male love interests, and story choices which lead the player down one of many routes towards a romantic ending. At their core, otome games are romance stories; however, they frequently feature an overarching side plot that is revealed slowly across each route.

Titles in this stack are sorted by most recent. Sequels and specials of TV anime are omitted. Where I've seen both the anime and played the VN, I've tried to give a brief description of what was covered.

A list of bully OVAs with openings for AMQ.
Watching them with a friend will make your experience better!

All of your butler and maid needs met in one place!

(List is currently work in progress! It'll be updated with more entries soon! DM if you have a suggestion!)

LIGHT SPOILER! Reference, mentions, and depictions of/for sadomasochism or have mean love interest
WARNING: some has romanticization/ eroticization of sexual violence, nonconsensual touching, torture, harassment, physical abuse, bullying.
Keywords: Do-S,Do-M, sadism, masochism, bondage.

Or edgy offensive disturbing anime that have made certain watchers uncomfortable. Definitely recommend to read the reviews + age rating before watching.

List of animated series set in Japan during the Taishō period (1912-1926).

Animes are listed in alphabetical order. There is no requirement regarding genres or themes, aside from just the action taking place during the Taishō period, or being either heavily inspired by it or any event happening during this period of Japanese history.

Naturally, the list might be updated in the future. For more details about bigger updates, please take a look at the bottom of this Interest Stack's description ("Updates" section.)

Please be aware of the possibility of finding both historically accurate animes and shows presenting alternative history; or simply rather realistic series listed alongside ones that feature supernatural elements, albeit without getting overwhelmed with them. That's why I highly recommend reading the synopsis of a show that will catch your attention.

The list does not include sequel series. If you are interested in checking them, you might just use certain anime's page on MyAnimeList and see which series are marked as related to it.


Updates:
31th March 2024 - specifying the description of this Interest Stack even further; adding two new anime (Kaze Tachinu; Watashi no Shiawase na Kekkon)

Looking for Visual Novels? Here is a list of the ones I completed with a level indicator of enjoyment. I hope you find the next game to play. Also below you will find a list of anime adapted from Otome and BL games

An up-to-date list with all otome game anime adaptations out there, counting every season and specials. Includes light novel/drama cd that turned in anime/game later like Brothers Conflict and Hamefura, but doesn't count manga that got an anime/game later like Vampire Knight and Ouran High School Host Club.
