Ok just saying, the shiravune version of steam its kinda incomplete and has some differences vs the Japanase version (patched or unpatched) Shiravune version has the Perspective Switch CG its the Kazari pov of the extra H scene from the patched version, adding like 4 Ilustrations of Asuka BUT, shiravune version dont has some QOL Like the quick explain on the scenes preview, fully remove hard words (R) and removed most of censored dialogues are censored too on Palette version Palette version (Or oficial japanase one) Has fully exploration on the CG, Dialogue previews and all hard words are censored in Voice Dialogues but not removed from the game, but the last version of palette dont has the special third CG of Asuka LOL ALSO TAKE NOTE, Gallery Studio mode its fixed in palette version, i tried everthing for fix it in shiravune version but no results maybe im the buggy one but yea If you want all content like me as a weirdo get palette version (Still able to get it by original copy or weird pages) And if you want just chill in normal game buy steam one The work of tatekawa mako in this game its admirable and the character cant be forgotten they feel so natural, thats too much from a work wo palette dint take seriously since this its a fully comedy VN

If you're here for the premise and you think it sounds fun, you'll get what you're asking for. It's a fairly comfy story, and the fully voiced main character is surprisingly very likeable and characterful. He's a full character, not a self insert. I will give you a warning though: This VN has a thing for... well, there's no nice way to say this. It keeps showing piss related scenes. It's so out of place that it's the only really odd thing about the VN, but it is odd.

What a masterpiece. This VN ticks like all the boxes I could hope for in a VN. I just couldn't stop playing it as the story was just that engaging. I don't think I will ever see another VN like this in my life. Otome * Domain has a great mix of cute, comedy and romance. The story has 3 heroines (with a patch, otherwise 2) with a male protagonist playing a female role in secret in an all-girls school. All three routes are unique to each other giving you different views with the protagonist Minato and the girls. The game's music and visuals are also fantastic, and Minato also getting voice acting increases the immersion so much. I have completed this visual novel in 20h48m as a fast reader. I would highly recommend this game to those who likes a fun visual novel with traits mentioned. Just make sure to download the R18 patch for Kazari's route which is one of the best routes overall. And the negatives? Well it's the small amount of grammar errors, which most readers will likely not even notice. Minato best girl.

tl;dr - I'm glad I decided to play this vn. I really recommend this game to whoever want to read heartwarming romcom that doesn't too long. The story its self is a Slice of life that take place in school, it's about the protagonist help the girls overcome their unique problems. This is a moege meaning It's all about cute girls doing cute things. so I think it's natural that this game is really wholesome, lightheart and heartwarming. The comedy part is on point The characters is all cute, lovable and charming (even with their weird problem). I hate to admit that Minato is the girliest among them. There're 3 routes for each girl. separate from each other with really few choice in the main story. Finishing each route make me felt only good things and even feel a bit empty when I complete the story. As much as I want to praise this vn, I still want to point out its shortcoming. The plot is interesting but since the story is quite short for each girl and I suppose author was aiming for audience's happiness, the story become quite bland. I mean with this plot they can push further than this. It might be common in romance trope that little things can cause an angst. but in the other way around, some big problem that was building up can end quite easily. Lastly, in some route, it's make less sense than the others despite all the negative, I still hold this game dear. I didn't play VNs that much but I can see this one will be on my recommend list for a long time.

Otome * Domain is an entertaining VN that has the protagonist become an impostor among girls through him crossdressing his way into an all maidenly school. Thankfully, wearing the clothes of the opposite gender doesn’t come as a logistical problem to our dear Minato, since he’s the girliest man to ever exist, beating out all the competition with his culinary prowess alone. The only problem is how he’s not fond of wearing women's clothes. This is understandable due to his pride as a man, even if his entire skillset and appearance betrays the ideal male stereotype within his ideals. It’s something he has to grow accustomed to. Suffice to say it’s a wacky dilemma he has to live through. Point being is that he eventually falls in love. Leaving the flood gates open up for three routes. The three fortunate To start I’ll rank the routes from best to worst. [*]Yuzu (Equivocal Girl Failure) [*]Hinata (Edgelord Chuunibyou) [*]Kazari (Pee Girl) Personally, I liked all three routes even if they were cursed in their own special way. An example of this is Kazari with her golden child stresses. The way it manifests is through her inability to take care of herself to the point where she is unable to go to a restroom somehow, since Kazari tends to wet herself, Ironically enough, unless she does her business post haste with the help of a handy bottle. Or the magnanimous Kyouma… err… I meant Hinata with her demon general status and quips about how she’ll dominate over the entire world. The cursed part is how she is in the dark on Minato’s true gender for a good while, especially while they’re dating and have done a few H-scenes together. So yeah… For the Girl Failure Yuzu, she’s more of a tomboy who cartoonishly can’t cook. Doesn’t help that it’s an overplayed trope that doesn’t add substance to Yuzu’s character, with her being the butt of the majority of jokes. The sole exception to finally building from this trope is when she tries to improve in her route. And overall it’s the strongest storyline at showing Otome*s strengths, all in part due to it managing to flesh out the other two girls. (This is in contrast to the other laser focused routes) My thoughts One of my bigger criticism of Otome * Domain lies in how the visual novel opens with it flashing you with Kazari doing her “business”. This is an unusual cheap shot at shock value or well it’s how I would describe it. since it’s a weird hook that is specifically made to get you to find out more about Kazari’s gross and unfathomable incompetence. Ultimately, the scene ends up being a great turnoff to anyone curious enough to check the Visual novel out. a friend quickly dropped this VN due to it. As for me, I weathered through the initial golden opening and was able to experience the VN without much further hiccups. The story itself is entertaining with Minato trying to blend in, all-the-while having his ideal view of the opposite gender broken by his infiltration. Thankfully, Minato isn’t that much of a creep and is quite respectful to the others. Although, he does go all horn dog the moment a route is in full force. Overall, Otome * Domain manages to deliver meaningful teachings pertaining to certain groups of people. Be it finding a way to break through gender stereotypes and finding meaning in your person through improvement. Wanting to be truly understood, yet being hard to get due to putting up an edgelord persona, and filtering out all the poor normies just trying to get to know you. Or failing to live up to the expectations of your perceived value or status, and managing to cleave your own slice to make yourself you. It’s humanizing to see these topics between each route, and I applaud Otome * Domain to be able to take me to those highs. The one thing I did notice between all the girls is a formula, specifically with the routes consistently having two fitting H-scenes that end up making sense and are a great payoff in the context of the romance. Otherwise, they sort of get lost in their own degeneracy where a lot of them feel unnecessary past the initial two scenes. It doesn’t help that the characters’ appearance make them look like they’re 12-14 years old. The other problem I find with the formula would be how it builds to a climax, only for the conflict to get resolved in record time. To put this into perspective these boiling points get resolved faster than the other conflict in the common route. The reveal of Minato’s gender varies between the three lucky girls, and not when they’re about to get into an H-scene. (Thank heavens) And on a final note I’ll say the biggest reason that I liked Yuzu’s route is due to Minato getting the spotlight. The VN manages to show Minato’s efforts for what he does to care for all the three girls in the dormitory, with him not being taken for granted. A few misconceptions Otome * Domain’s run time isn’t 24 hours. It’s more accurate to say it’s around 50 or so hours. You might not care if you’re only in it to do one route which would cost you 24 hours, but it would be weird to not check out the rest of the content. This realization made me consume the VN slower with me taking over 2 years to finally read it, truth be told. I spent 58 hours reading, so yay… I was unsure when it was gonna end, so I was scared to touch the VN, or at least distracted to put my foot down and commit. I’ll say that the H-scenes are a bit of a handful sometimes due to how we get to hear Minato's inner thoughts. They are ramblings on how he’s uncontrollable and “an animal”, which makes it a chore to read. Thankfully, it does eventually stop, but nevertheless, his thoughts can be too much to the point where I’m mentally checked out after the flurry of H-scenes start. Just beware that everyone is voice in this VN so you’ll be hearing Minato and whoever is involved. So prepare your ears or mute the voices. Final notes Otome * Domain is a cute visual novel. Minato is a great main character since he has to grapple with a few of his flaws and come to terms with him being the girliest man. Where his story is genuinely humanizes I’d give it around a 7/10. Since there are a few hiccups here and there but I relatively had fun with the VN. Be sure to install the patch from the publisher Shiravune to access any missing content. This includes the H-scenes. Also there’s a few grammar and spelling mistakes but nothing too egregious to take you out. Thanks for reading my review!
