Story

Your bestie has enough of you complaining about not finding more otome fans. So she "invites" (more like drags) you to her friend's server, where everyone is an otome fan, including some Japanese guys! Find your place in this new friend group, learn each other's language and enjoy your own sweet romance!

Gameplay

Like other chat-sim games, you have narrative choices and text input. You will also be able to scour the fictional otome fan server. In addition to that, you will learn Japanese N5 level vocabulary and some basic grammar, which will be interwoven with the story and your romance with our Love Interest Alpaca, also known as Jun Miyakawa.

Features

An adorable art style, to add to the fluffy feel.
Voiced messages. The LI will send you voiced messages. At times it will be to explain the pronunciations of the Japanese words you are learning. And sometimes he teases you with confessions and compliments you might not understand yet.
Voiced Video Calls. Once you start to trust each other, you video call each other. Enjoy laughter, communicating through body language, funny expressions and sudden interruptions from the people you and the LI live together. You may get to see his dog.
Simple vocabulary tests, which are interwoven with narrative choices. You can imagine them as typical visual novel choices. The better you can communicate and make less mistakes, the more progress you will have in your relationship with our love interest.
Mistakes are still fun! Both you and the Love Interest are learning each other's language, which can lead to funny misunderstandings, Freudian slip ups and reveal unexpected things about each other.
Multiple Endings. Depending on how far your relationship progressed, you can reach friendship and romantic endings.
The length will be at least 20k words.
