Double the Love: Otome Games You Can Also Enjoy as Anime
Hey, lovelies!
As a huge fan of both otome games and anime, I can’t help but get excited when my favorite otome games get their very own anime adaptations or vice versa. There’s something magical about seeing characters I’ve fallen in love with on-screen, bringing new depth and life to their stories while keeping that emotional connection from the game. So let me share with you a few of my absolute favorite otome games that you can also experience as an anime!
Journey Through this Article
1. Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom
First up is Hakuoki, and if you’ve ever watched the anime or read the manga, you already know about the captivating, historical world of the Shinsengumi. But playing the game takes it to a whole new level. As Chizuru, you get to navigate a world of honor, bloodshed, and (yes!) romance. You have the power to fall in love with one of the Shinsengumi’s iconic warriors while uncovering heart-wrenching secrets and supernatural mysteries.
2. Amnesia: Memories
While the Amnesia anime is super engaging, the game lets you dive even deeper into the mystery of the heroine who’s lost her memories. I loved switching between parallel worlds, each one representing a different romantic route! The characters feel so much more layered in the game, and you get to spend more time with your favorite love interest. If you’re into a bit of mystery with your romance, this game is a must-play.
3. Code: Realize
The steampunk fantasy world of Code: Realize is one of the most stunning settings I’ve ever seen in both anime and otome games. The anime introduced me to the beautiful but tragic story of Cardia, a girl whose touch is poisonous, but it’s the game that really made me fall in love with the characters. The romantic routes in the game offer so much more detail and emotion, making each choice you make feel meaningful.
What I adore about Code: Realize is how it blends romance with adventure, mystery, and even a little bit of historical fantasy. If you’ve watched the anime, you’re going to be thrilled with how much more the game delivers!
4. Diabolik Lovers
If you like your otome games on the darker side, this one’s for you. The anime was intense, but let me tell you — the Diabolik Lovers game really dives into the relationships with the vampire brothers, letting you decide which of them you want to focus on. Yui’s journey is filled with danger and some seriously complicated love interests, and the game gives you the power to explore all those intense dynamics even more than the anime.
5. Uta no Prince-sama
For all the idol fans out there, Uta no Prince-sama is the otome game that brings the world of music and romance together. If you’ve seen the anime, you already know how charming and talented all the boys are — but the game gives you the chance to get closer to them than ever. As Haruka, you’re surrounded by these handsome idols, each with their own dreams and backstories.
Conclusion
Otome games with anime adaptations are a dream come true for fans like me who want to experience our favorite stories in a new and personal way. Whether it’s the intense action and romance of Hakuoki, or the mind-bending mystery of Amnesia, these adaptations allow us to experience beloved stories in different mediums. If you haven’t already, definitely give both the games and their anime a try — you won’t regret it!
