Also, there aren't two separate meanings for the term otome game that’s misinformation largely spread by Western audiences. If you were to tag your game this way in the Eastern community, you'd likely be blacklisted or dismissed by much of the community for misrepresenting the genre

Hello, I just want to say, if u see the announcement, please care creator is away right now. if from the bottom of your heart this is something of trouble, you should email the creator privately and explain your views, writing here with entitlement is not good.
In this world, not everybody view the same, even for me, if i see female options, i see it as otome too. a lot of people are not technical, if this is a big problem for you, just know this is a first world problem, a lot normal people if this do not hurt or effect their life, no one care.
Please do not use race to justify ur answers. That is not correct way of things. if you want people to see your views, try to understand others too.

I just don't understand why new fans in the West can't respect the basic etiquette of the community I've been an otome fan for over 10+ years and it's only recently that this has become a problem

So by that logic this should be marked as a yaoi game too since you can play as a male MC? Do you see now what I'm trying to say the otome tag for this makes no sense

like i says, if you want to resolve your trouble, you should email the creator where the person can see you and explain your worries. But you only want to scream at the sky like a shouting dog. If all you want to do is complain, no one can help you. Bitterness will only destroy yourself. No one wants to go near a dog that bites.
Basic etiquette of humans is to resolve our trouble with words, yet you do not.
The world pass 10+ years many things has changed with it. No one is trying to enemy with you. We are just telling you our views, just because it is different , you want world to bow to your feelings? This is kid behaviour.

I think I'm just going to stop interacting with Western otome and fans you refuse to respect our community and when we try to educate you on the meaning you just start attacking us and comparing us to kids

Complete bullshit you're spreading misinformation otome has and always will mean female exclusive protag because that's what the definition of otome means 'maiden' trying to to rewrite that definition isn’t just ignorant of other cultures, it's flat out misogynistic. You’re erasing a genre created by and for women just because you can't stand content that doesn't cater to men

my suggestion for ur own peace, if you see something you don’t like, you can move away from it. People do not see this as righteous behaviour. Go on with your life.

If you wish to complain more, you should do it on the otome sub instead of comment section of a game you will not play.

yeah but so many people think if the game has so many love interest that are all male they might think its a otome for me if the mc is girl i would know immediately its an Otome because thats what im used for since i also play some old otome games the mc is always a girl for sure. i think because were in a more modern time there are more options available to make everyone feel included in the game like compared to before if a male want to play an otome game hes forced to be a girl in the game because thats what makes it but not in nowdays games have many options. also please dont forget every person might view the word different from other person but no worries i get your point ^^

No ones is forcing men to play as female if playing as a women upsets someone so much it's just misogyny and they're free to play many of the countless games that cater to the male audience

Of course you would stoop to such a misogynistic insult. All you’re doing is proving exactly why we don’t want people like you in the otome community.

And you're an ignorant hick who doesn't even understand the definition of a genre you're supposedly a fan

No, clearly no one understands what I’m saying but that’s fine. I’m stepping away from the Western community. The amount of misogyny here is honestly heartbreaking. So whatever, keep mistagging everything. Who cares anymore? Make a BL game with a female protagonist and call it yaoi apparently because accuracy doesn’t matter

I think what the original commentor was attempting to say is that an otome is classified as a game targeted towards woman with a female mc. Typically, anything other would be classified as an otoge or amare game. I don't think it matters that the otome tag is listed on this game as there is the option for a fem mc. However, they are right, if there was no fem mc it would not be an otome game. I do think many in the fandom are a bit fed up with the term being used as an umbrella for romance games because that's not what an otome game is. In my personal opinion though this game can use to otome game tag though.
