Sometimes I just think on how the artist of Togainu no Chi made the illustrations for the Captive Prince covers in Japan.

Aksys Reveals Paradigm Paradox and More Otome Games for the West
 Aksys Games hopped on Twitch earlier today for the All Aksys event, taking the opportunity to reveal a bunch of new titles for 2022 and beyond. Chief among them were four otome games—specifically four developed by Otomate—which are all set to make their way to Nintendo Switch in the west.
 Upcoming Otomate visual novels include Lover Pretend, Paradigm Paradox, Kimi wa Yukima ni Koinegau, and Piofiore: Episodio 1926. Check out trailers and more info for each below.Â
 Lover PretendÂ
youtube
  Synopsis:
Chiyuki lives alone, spending all her time studying for university and doing part-time work. She has two dreams in life: to become a scriptwriter—also a dream of her late mother—and to find her father whom she never met. From clues left behind, it seems her mother was writing a drama script before she was born. Chiyuki lands a job as an assistant to a scriptwriter for a film that the sons of the drama staff are making. She searches for information while working her new job, but in a twist of events ends up cast in the role of their love interest…? This is a pretend love role, not true love. Can Chiyuki create a script about fake lovers, while not knowing anything about falling in love herself?
 Paradigm Paradox
youtube
  Synopsis:
The year is 25XX, a world where mankind lives only in isolated colonies. The protagonist, a student at the academy, is bored with the drudgery of everyday life, a day-to-day existence untouched by gossip about "Heroes" and "Vermin," the enemy of mankind, and unnoticed by the good-looking guys at the academy. One night she slips out of the dormitory and encounters colony-invading Vermin, landing herself in danger! Four girls appear suddenly and repel the Vermin with miraculous abilities. The protagonist decides to work as a Hero, leading a busy life as both a student and champion of justice. But why is it that she has more opportunities to talk to the good-looking guys everyone is whispering about…? What is their (the girls’ / guys’) secret…? And what is the enemy’s true identity…?
 Kimi wa Yukima ni Koinegau [English title pending]

  Synopsis:
The first year of the Kyoho era. The land is ruled by the eighth shogun Tokugawa Yoshimune. Repeated incidents caused by monsters in the town of Edo upset and frighten the people so the Tokugawa shogunate establishes the “Oniwaban” to maintain public order and secured the town. Seasons passed—to year 11 of the Kyoho era. A girl in a village far from Edo has the power to see a "black thread" before every catastrophe and the panicked villagers drove her away into the snowy mountains. One day, a young man going by the name of Oniwaban appears before her. This is a story in which a girl encounters "non-humans," and learns about love.
