Heya!

I think you tagged your game wrong. Otome game means reverse harem. Female MC and male love interest.

I think the correct tag would be gay, LGBT and yaoi.

Hi there! Thanks for being kind in your commentary.

In my experience, the term otome (at least in the west) has expanded to include multiple genders for both MC and love interests, such as with the Arcana game.

I will add the tags you suggested to make it clear that this game is different from a classic otome, but I don't see a reason to remove the otome tag.

Thanks for your input!

I don't agree. While yes, an otome can include multiple genders as the protagonist, but the moment there is not female MC available to choose from and no male LIs available then that doesn't classify as otome. Even the Otomejam is very clear on what an otome is

But suit yourself.
