>HoneyBee has a visual novel series where you play as the first female student in an all boys school called Starry☆Sky. The games were originally made for PC and HuneX, the company that handled the Fate/stay night [Realta Nua] Vita port, brought them to PSP.

>A magazine scan revealed that the Starry☆Sky series is coming to Nintendo 3DS in April with the first game, Starry☆Sky ~in Spring~. This game takes place when Tsukiko arrives in Seigatsu Academy which is known for its astronomy program. All of the male suitors also happen to represent a different zodiac sign.

It's kind of strange. Male oriented VNs have tall girls and short girls and loli girls and milf girls and flat girls and cowtit girls and muscular girls and damaged girls and even chubby girls.

Do chubby guys even exist in otome games or any other types?

What are the personality stereotypes in fujoshi media anyway? All the guys look exactly the same so you can't tell what the personalities are like at a glance like with male oriented things.

>>10211087
I've never seen a chubby guy, but I've only played about 10. Once you get the hang of it though, it becomes really easy to tell what kind of "personalities" they have right away.

Some things to be able to tell are: clothes, way they speak, eye shape. What do they eyebrows look like? Are they very sharp, and "violent"? That's probably the black sheep. Usually the sweetest.

We got evil ones, sweet ones that may end up wanting to kill you, some muscular ones, the nerdy ones that just steal your heart away, princes that end up just being too try-hard and a whole bunch more. Body types vary, too. I'm sure there's an otome game out there with chubby guys though. Different people love different traits.

Liess, I know of a few gals who love themselves some chubby/fat/strongfat men. There are female furries too. I really don't doubt that there are girls out there who have an amputee fetish, I mean, usually the quietest ones are the ones with the most fucked-up fetishes.

Of course not, you get raped after cockteasing your way to the top of the classroom and either become a cool blooded bitch bullying everyone while getting beaten by her "boyfriend", or you get some sweet love from you friendly nerd classmate to heal you only to end up with the third guy who really didn't give a shit about you but the way he looks troubled was cuter.

Your osananajimi in Love Revo is a chubby guy, although that is a fitness-themed raising type game where the heroine is fat too and his route consists of you training together. (He's totally the best guy though.)

The thing to remember is that otome games are a fairly new segment of the market, compared to het or even yaoi eroge. And what were most eroge way back when the genre began? Dating sims.

There will be more variety with time. Even in ten years or so I can see there being a much greater selection of types of titles. (Hope some of them are dark, intense Innocent Grey type titles too; I'd play the shit out of that.)

>> No.10211298

There.
Fucking fujoshi have to ruin everything.
Why do they have to do this? If fujoshi didn't exist then bara would have a much bigger market, and stupid yaoi wouldn't exist. Why fujoshi have such a bad taste in 2D shonen?
The worse thing is that they always do the same romantic plot.
Why? Don't they like sci-fi or anything else?

lol not really? Bara has always appealed primarily to gay men. It's a very niche genre; to imply that BL is somehow holding it back (how?) is ridiculous. It's like blaming the popularity of schoolgirls or loli for the absence of giantess porn.

Starry Sky is atrocious. I played Spring about two years ago and it was literally one of the worst things I have read across any medium. It was rather insulting, really and it freaks me out how popular it is. The series isn't even finished being ported to the PSP, now they're pushing it over to the 3DS?

Not all fujoshi play otoge. Not all otoge fans are fujoshi.

I wish. This is the primary reason why I don't specifically read VNs aimed at my gender - the vast majority of them are rather weak, story-wise. The most recent otoge title I can think of which had an epic scope and was of a fairly decent quality is Black Wolves Saga: Bloody Nightmare.

Well no, by definition they're not. A game without a female main character wouldn't usually be considered otome.

I can't believe that doesn't exist, I mean many otome dating sims have "let's stay friends" content already, it should be easy and natural to make the guys you teased and friendzoned hook up, especially if they were rivals.
I guess they're afraid of making otome and fujoshi content overlap for some reason. Maybe japanese otome are homophobic, they certainly seem to despise fujoshi at least.
Fujoshi might dislike hetero relationships too for some reason.
