all of the visual novels i've been into since i first started this journey when i was a preteen, lol. i tried my best to do these in chronically order.

• mystic messenger
  • jumin han, yoosung kim
    • first ever visual novel i played when i was 12 years old (which is probably the same for a lot of people, haha). yoosung was initially my most favorite, but i got to replay this again back in late 2020 and... jumin, the man that you are... but i love both equally. ♡
• dandelion ~ wishes brought to you
  • jiwoo, jieun
• seduce me
  • damian(?)
    • ohh, question mark? what does that mean? it just means i'm not really confident they are my favorite character. i honestly don't remember much about this series... i think damian was the character i liked most...? none of the characters stood out that much to me. i don't know, i have to replay this again someday.
• nameless ~ the one thing you must recall
  • lance, yeonho
    • this is kind of the same as mm, my two favorites are complete opposites of the spectrum. honestly the same situation too where my favorite initially was yeonho, but when i got to replay this in my later teens, i really loved lance too. i definitely need to get into this again eventually. since neither of those times i got to truly finish this. i feel like i'd love yuri's route too.
• doki doki literature club
  • yuri
• cinderella phenomenon
  • rod(?)
    • another one where i don't remember jack shit and didn't finish ToT it's not that i thought it was bad, i just procrastinated too hard and teenage me was less likely to finish every single route of a visual novel.
• hakuoki
  • heisuke toudou
• re:birthday song
  • ame
    • this is definitely one of my most favorite otomes. i can't even really describe what exactly i love about this specifically, i think you just have to experience it for yourself. ame will always be my most favorite love interest ever! :3
• ayakashi gohan
  • yomi
    • i need to replay again.
• xoxo droplets
  • jeremy
• diabolik lovers
  • kanato sakamaki, azusa mukami, yuma mukami
    • The only piece of vampire media i've ever truly been into.
• boyfriend to death
  • ren hana
    • i'm definitely so unique for having ren as my favorite (sarcasm). but i mean, there isn't necessarily that much to choose from... lmfao. but yeah, i have to get into gatobob's other games (tpof & ykmet).
• dramatical murder
  • aoba, noiz, vitri
    • i think because of aoba & noiz i subconsciously really started loving the combination of blue and green. i'm absolutely obsessed with those colors right now. i'm blue if i was green i would die..... also, the ost for this is absolutely amazing! this was the first visual novel that i've absolutely adored its soundtrack.
• amnesia ~ memories
  • toma, kent
    • i love that blonde little freak. i thought when i replayed it recently that i matured past toma since he was my fav when i was younger, but... nope! but kent is really sweet and lovely! ^^
• code realize ~ guardian of rebirth
  • victor frankenstein
• olympia soiree
  • riku, himuka
• life: beginnings & always
  • cove (i mean... who else? ToT)
    • procrastinated and didn't finish, fuck. i think the game is probably a little too fluffy for me, personally. but the concept of it is really cool. jeremy wasn't lying though when he said he was an absolute dickhead as a kid though.
• togainu no chi
  • akira, rin, yukihito
    • the second game i've played from nitro+chiral. i thought it was pretty good, but i can recognize a lot places where... it didn't really hit that much, lol. the ost is great (both the original and true blood). i hate shiki, and it actually pisses me off how good his character design is...
