### 5/5 — LOVE

*2025-07-24*

I love this game, love all the characters as well. And the game is easy to play.

### 5/5 — I LOVE KAZUI 😍

*2024-07-24, version 1.0.1*

guys please try this game out, it's SO cute and fun and unique and a nice breath of fresh air from other otome games! the characters are all lovable and unique in their own way, the gameplay itself is really addicting- heck, i even threw in all my money for all the special Kazui content (TOTALLY worth it) 😭❤️

### 4/5 — Good experience

*2024-07-22*

Simple and generally well paced with nice art and writing. I find that there’s always something keeping me in the app. Wish there was less routes that were paywalled, though. The fact that the game doesn’t write for the player perspective in the visual novel parts is a little unexpected, though. I’ve never seen a brother route for a game like this so I also thought that was interesting.

### 4/5 — Not bad but?

*2024-07-20*

Not a bad game, I like the characters, I was excited for the VAs but… Kazui is our brother. You have a pack showing you life as a couple with your brother. That’s just… no.

### 5/5 — Best otome game ever

*2024-07-13, version 1.0.1*

I have played a lot of otome games before (yes I'm a loser) and by far this has to be the best otome game I've ever played before. The unique characters, the amazing dialogue, and the heart-stopping endings you can get are endless.

10/10

### 5/5 — Cute game🌷

*2024-06-10*

It’s really cute and fun. I like the little work option because it’s idle play. The boys are funny and the dialogue is great. I also love the alerts you get from the boys they are cute. 💓

### 3/5 — Buy extra content

*2024-05-15*

Really liked the simplicity of previous otome chat but this kinda disappoints me. I hate the idea of having to pay for extra content at the end, because I know it’s not worth the buy. So it’s kinda just something I’ll never get to see because it’s so pointless. I also wouldn’t mind Kumi in a suit either, that would’ve been cool to see as well. It’s amusing that the protagonists hair is purple-ish though, that’s an interesting neutral choice.

### 5/5 — Last names

*2024-05-08*

Bruh last name of a guy changes based on urs

### 3/5 — annoyed

*2024-01-06*

this is the only way to give any feedback, a lot of the time i don’t get the items i’ve watched an ad for or even a daily item. it says i claimed it but i never received it, this happens a lot and it’s so annoying

### 4/5 — Cute game! Uncomplicated and simple

*2023-11-15*

This is a fun game! As with basically all free otome games you have to be patient and watch quite a few ads to make it through free, but it seems generous enough so far :) I really like the characters, I like Masaki a lot but I’m very very excited to get to Yukio and Takumi! It’s hard for me to find effeminate boy love interests as a girl, so I’m hoping I really like them <3
Also I wasn’t able to find a ‘contact us’ button so I’m writing this review—sometimes a second soundtrack gets layered on top. It’s not affected by any sound sliders, it’s kinda like ethereal string music, maybe a harp. It doesn’t always come up and sometimes it gets shut back off by itself but usually I have to restart the app once or twice. Generally unoffensive but I wanted to report it and this seemed like the easiest location :)
