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.

So in 2023, I decided to challenge myself to watch all the anime based on otome games or with a game adaptation even if that isn't a good anime in the end.
I will try to play all the games even if they are just available in Japanese.
I want to share this publicly because I found that aren't that many stacks with this kind of theme and as an otome lover I need to do my job here (my English is trash sorry)

ps.: I will do the same for manga because normally manga is superior

Sometimes you want to watch an underground anime that no one else has watched to show your ultimate weeb skillz. Maybe this stack can help you :) If not then welp, you are already a weeb. (Also I'm not saying that all these anime are exceptionally and actually good. Just not that known)

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

As the title says~

Anime containing characters in chibi form.

WIKI DEFINITION
Chibi, also known as super deformation, or S.D. is a style of caricature originating in Japan, and common in anime and manga where characters are drawn in an exaggerated way, typically small and chubby with stubby limbs, oversized heads, and minimal detail.
