Kenka Banchou Otome: Girl Beats Boys

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.

Bad Boys | School fights | Gang Violence

The anime stack of mostly all-male casts focused on joseimuke media: idols, mobile games, (not) otome games, and multimedia projects. I won't include the sequels because the stack is limited to 50 so you gotta find them out by yourself.

Part 2 (original & manga/novel adaptation): https://myanimelist.net/stacks/6190
Also check out pretty boys doing sports: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/2079

Anime themed around Yankee, delinquents and Bōsōzoku (youth biker gangs.)..

A curated list of series and shorts that span no more than 15 minutes, but satisfies your entertainment all the same. Arranged in color-coordinated rows because nothing makes lists look more appealing than a uniform order, trust me.

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

Whether identical, fraternal, alike or different. Whether main characters, side characters, or only in one episode, all these shows have twins.

If there are two anime in the same franchise on this list, that means there’s a new pair of twins introduced.

Part 2: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/31892

Has multiple OP or ED that's the same song with different singers (or is close to the same song with the same singer) in 1 entry (Minimum amount is 5, based off of AMQ)

also Doraemon is excluded

part 2: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/37714

if you like Reverse Harem Anime (1 Female lead with many Male leads or 1 Female lead but many male characters than female) you can watch this

Notes: I have definitely watched/read the anime/manga that I give a rating
I will not give a rating below 5, Rating 5 for me = 1, >8 = recommended
if it's not good for me, the status "Dropped" and no rating

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

Games which are not Visual Novels.

Guys and Gals hanging out and doing stupid things. Could be just boys, could be just girls or could be both.

I think the title speaks for itself. This a very hyper-specific subgenre found mainly in shoujo. Hana-Kimi's manga was the trendsetter that popularized it.

Adaptations of manga that were published by Shojo Beat. No second seasons or sequels are included, however remakes are. Some of the manga are adaptations of visual novels or light novels but this is composed of any manga that has a counterpart anime.

This list includes pretty much every genre.

Some of these also have two or more main protagonists; at least one is female, the same thing.

. No magical girl anime because I don't really like them


Thank me later 😘

strong female lead or side characters with little to none sexualized/male gaze female characters and well written without it being superficial.

Because most OP characters are male, this list is for variety's sake. This is just stuff I've seen, feel free to suggest!
