Hiiro no Kakera

Otome games (sometimes shortened to otoge) are visual novels with a female protagonist, multiple male love interests, and story choices which lead the player down one of many routes towards a romantic ending. At their core, otome games are romance stories; however, they frequently feature an overarching side plot that is revealed slowly across each route.

Titles in this stack are sorted by most recent. Sequels and specials of TV anime are omitted. Where I've seen both the anime and played the VN, I've tried to give a brief description of what was covered.

yokai/supernatural - u get the gist.

These are all some of my favorite fantasy Shoujo anime! There’s a lot of fantasy shounen but it’s rare to find people with a huge list of Shoujo fantasy and if they do have one it tends to be a lot of the same stuff. Here’s mine. I hope you find something new to watch. If not, I’m sorry for not being helpful enough. I’ll also be adding donghua (Chinese anime) in here because a lot of them are really worth watching. There’s one anime on here that airs in the fall but I’ve read and am obsessed with the source material and the trailers look amazing so I feel comfortable putting it on here. They are in rank from my highest score to lowest. FYI just because something might be ranked low doesn’t mean that it’s bad, it’s in my favorites list after all. Also, just because these are Shoujo anime doesn’t necessarily mean they all are romances. Enjoy!

The counterpart of beautiful girls and the collection of reverse harem animes that can make you fall in love. Reverse harems tend to be pure and simplistic than the original version of harem. Pretty boys surrounding a simple and ordinary girl, is one of the most young maidens' dreams.

The best shojo anime that I saw so far and that everyone should see sometime. Without a doubt, they are masterpieces that were created to bring happiness and comfort to our lives✨

So in 2023, I decided to challenge myself to watch all the anime based on otome games or with a game adaptation even if that isn't a good anime in the end.
I will try to play all the games even if they are just available in Japanese.
I want to share this publicly because I found that aren't that many stacks with this kind of theme and as an otome lover I need to do my job here (my English is trash sorry)

ps.: I will do the same for manga because normally manga is superior

So this stack is not intended to offend anyone, it's a list made from my observations in the community about some works that maybe at some point were popular or had their moments of fame but nowadays very few people talk about.

Part 2: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/31737

Main-main MC unless there are 2 or more who equally share the spotlight. Will not add (yet) those I'm not certain of

if you like Reverse Harem Anime (1 Female lead with many Male leads or 1 Female lead but many male characters than female) you can watch this

Notes: I have definitely watched/read the anime/manga that I give a rating
I will not give a rating below 5, Rating 5 for me = 1, >8 = recommended
if it's not good for me, the status "Dropped" and no rating

Looking for Visual Novels? Here is a list of the ones I completed with a level indicator of enjoyment. I hope you find the next game to play. Also below you will find a list of anime adapted from Otome and BL games
