It all depends on how it's done after all. I get it that most people see these relationships more like sibling than romantic, especially in western countries, but I don't understand the amount of hate for it. So, what about everyone else? Got any tropes no one besides you seems to enjoy?Ĭhildhood friend LIs. I didn't even care that his route is largely disconnected with the main plot, I enjoyed it so much haha. just a great balance of explaining the past relationship, and developing the current one. I find it unbearably sweet!Ĭinderella Phenomenon has my favourite example of this trope with Rod's route. But done right, I find something so very satisfying about a character who believes they've lost their chance at love finding a new love in an unexpected place. ![]() I'm very aware of the ways this trope can and has gone wrong sometimes it focuses so hard on the angst of the past relationship that it forgets to develop the new one. Yes, that can include the dead past wife/gf trope. ![]() I only have one that I can think of, but it's one that seems to be quite fervently disliked: actually kinda like? It can be a guilty pleasure, the sort of thing you understand why other people hate, or it can be something that you genuinely don't understand the negativity for. My personal rank on them is Prestige Parasite (hard to resist the urge to get up and start dancing)>Glamor Parasite (so pretty with the japanese instruments and my favorite lyrics)>Lovelorn Parasite/Love Letter for you (chill and sweet and pretty, Gill's one good point lol)>Obsessed Parasite (really hate the weird male vocals)>Thieving Parasite (sorry Allen fans, but for awhile my heart jumped everytime his theme played, boy be crashing my retro/MCM vibes with his emo punk vibes and I just don't appreciate it! In isolation I don't mind it so much though) haven't done the secret route yet so can't rank that one.Anyone got tropes in otoge that you always hear complaints about but you. I think after listening to the others a bunch of times I figured out all the lyrics, but no matter how many times I listen to those three I just can't make out some parts.Īlso curious how everyone ranks the character BGMs. ![]() Namely the one titled Case ?, Top Bridaladviser, and Obsessed Parasite. But I am terrible at catching lyrics to any songs, so wondering if some people can help. I adore the BGM for Cupid Parasite (didn't expect to ever play an otome game with 50s inspired music and as a fan of many things MCM I love it). Love him but he is the definition of selfless love too lol. having actually played Allan's route I feel like Allan did not take his advice and he basically took on the whole world to help Lynnette lol. I couldn't help but think of some other games where I felt there were more sprites for charas that had less lines/importance than some side characters that had no sprites in CP.Īlso, I posted this on this reddit somewhere but not on my Allan reaction post but knowing in the common route where the characters are in the share house and Allan's argument with Gill about Gill doing too much for others and not letting them have their independence, while Allan is the opposite. The only thing I was really bummed by was how little character sprites there are in this game for side characters! Booooo. Save your route thoughts and discussions for the play-along threads or the What Are You Reading Wednesday threads.Īfter finishing this game after like a week or 2 ago I can safely say that this is one of my top otome games! I wasn't expecting to like it so much because the interface (pastel colors) made me go ?! when I first saw it, but I absolutely loved this game~! Please use spoiler tags liberally as people checking this thread may not necessarily want a lot of information. The Secret Route is locked until all other routes are completed.Ĭomments unrelated to Cupid Parasite will be removed - please post in the Weekly Questions threads or the Free Talk Friday threads instead. Raul and Allan are locked until one of the first routes is completed. Gill, Shelby and Ryuki are unlocked at the beginning. ![]() You will need to restart the game for each route. You do not have to play in the above order at the rate of a route a week, you can binge it all in a day if you wish. Whether you have just bought the game or have played it in Japanese, you are welcome to participate in our play-along!
