Nameless Route Review: Yeonho – The Cute Aggression is Real

Here’s the first of my Nameless Route Reviews. SPOILERS ABOUND, so don’t read further if you plan to play the game and haven’t. If you do…well, I warned you. Often I’ll start my otome games with the route I’m least interested in, or one I’m less interested in than others. Much of the time, I’m not interested in the shota or shota-coded love interests (the younger, cuter ones meant to appeal to…

Heya! First off, I really love and appreciate your blog!! It's so hard to find yandere guys sometimes so I always look forward to see you post 🥺💕

I've actually got a male yandere recommendation of my own! It's an otome game called Nameless~ The one thing you must recall and it's available to buy on steam. I checked your masterlist to see if you've talked about this before but couldn't find anything, so sorry if you did and I just didn't see it!

Anyway, I'm playing the game right now and I'm not done with it yet but two of the love interest out of five I would definitely categorize as a yandere. Their names are Yeonho and Tei! I'm wondering what you think of the game if you ever plan on playing it! ^^

Hi, hi! Thank you so much, I also appreciate all the stuff you do for your writings and just liking my stuff in general. I'm glad that my efforts in finding male yanderes make people happy.

Nameless is actually the second otome game that I've ever played (the first one being Amnesia Memories, for obvious reasons) and I really love the way that they make all of the guys interact. Usually in otome games, the characters are... pretty separate? They interact, but they're not very close to each other, nor do they really affect each other within the game, but Amnesia does a good job in making all of these guys interact in a family almost and I really like that, haha.

Yeonho, Tei and ??? are yanderes in my opinion. Yeonho is probably my favorite since he's my type and also his story arc was really good, going from a really clingy character to one that's more matured (which is good in terms of character development, but I still kind of liked the more clingy Yeonho, haha.) and in his bad endings his voice changed from really cute to vicious and I really loved that as well. Tei was alright as well, though I don't think I liked his route as much, since a lot of his route was just a lot of misunderstandings (which in any media is kind of annoying, especially when it can be solved with some communication), though he does end up interrupting one of Yeonho's yandere endings which I found pretty surprising.

The people who made this game, Cheritz, are pretty well known for their good stories and their yanderes. Dandelion has Jisoo and Mystic Messenger has Yoosung Kim, Jumin Han and Ray (though I think Ray is a bit debatable haha). Personally, I really like their games so far since all the characters are usually pretty good and have good backstories and routes to go through. Also, I find their MCs more tolerable and interesting than other otomes I've played.

On a sidenote, I was thinking of creating a blog as a backup for this tumblr blog, just in case something happens. I wanted to also rewrite some of my recommendations and asks to be a bit less train of thought and more structured and to do proper reviews of more popular male yanderes as well. Obviously, this blog will be my main, but I think it might be nice to create a blog as well. What do you all think?

10/10 screenshots of Nameless ~The one thing you must recall~

I LOVE this game despite some things I found frustrating. I wanted to replay before reviewing but life won’t give me time, so I’m posting the screenshots I took until now, later I might update or reorganize this.

Our airhead protagonist, Eri, has a puppy face and the funniest monologue I’ve ever seen. I love her.

LOOK. Just look.

The “background characters” are THE BEST thing in the game in my humble/totally right opinion, along with Eri’s friends.

This Soy sauce girl is always stealing the spotlight. I’ll never forget how she said “c.u.t.e. boysss!”

Here’s your unsolicited, unexpected dark humor!

Soy sauce is literally my favorite, how could she not?

I wonder if I’ll ever play another otome where the MC has friends more supportive than these two.

Did I say I love this game?

An example of something minor but very noticeable that should be fixed - like he said himself, Yuri came home straight from school, so why isn’t he in his suit?

All “shirtless flour/bachelor ghost Yuri” scenes are gold.

And so are Eri’s reactions to the game’s Casanova.

Tei and Yuri, the old married couple.

Eri is too relatable. And that GUI? Perfectly fitting, simple and yet so pretty!

My first route, Yeonho’s, and the first scene to creep me out. At the time I had no idea how dark this game could get... (confused background Red was equally in the dark)

Game has amazing art, with some random exceptions. I particularly adore the shading!

Don’t bother trying to understand this if you haven’t played Nameless and Dandelion to the end. What’s with Cheritz and the fourth wall?!

Lance, the obvious kuu/tsundere who reminds me of my socially inept, uptight younger self.

Also the guy/doll with the cutest, though rare, blush.

The best thing about him? He somehow has the funniest route despite his serious nature. Lots of tropes are misleading in this game.

*Acts of Service intensifies* typical oblivious protagonist is typical... 

Only a tsundere pursuer could appreciate that!

Nothing ever works out for him, honestly! He has terrible luck.

Lance trying to be less unintentionally insensitive. Eri only has to tell him once. SO refreshing when the characters actually listen to the MC!

*Sigh* Me.

This game should be a TV series. By the way, most of my screenshots are of Lance because his route was the only one I got to replay. No favoritism here... probably!

All other dolls are deeply flawed in a way Eri can only understand after serious drama. Then there’s Lance, explaining his issue in 5 lines.

Nameless Route Review: Tei - Not the Barista of My Dreams

If you don’t know by now – SPOILERS! Fourth and penultimate in my Nameless route reviews is Tei: the kind, level-headed mother of the group. He stops fights between Red and Lance, encourages Yeonho, and makes even Yuri wary. He was a limited edition doll that, similar to Yeonho, was slightly damaged – and due to being a limited run, couldn’t really be repaired or replaced. I won’t get into too…
