Fortunately, there is an otome game on the play store that includes the girls as love interests! I don't think it's as official as the one with the unknown dudes added in but at least you can romance the girls. I haven't played it myself so I'm not sure about the quality.
Even if Korean series did end up getting localized physical releases, I doubt they’d have the same quality as the Korean releases. Full color is always going to be a lot more expensive to print, hence needing a built in wide audience. I’m on the look out to see how the physical release of Solo Leveling turns out.
Out of all of the currently localized series, WMMAP is likely to get one first. But I doubt they’ll ever do the special edition box set.
OH sorry lol misunderstood that was the name. Thank you!!
For anyone interested:
Wow these are some seriously good recommendations people. So far, some of it I: have read, currently reading or haven't read yet. I have made a notion though of my reading list few months back. If you guys have the time, I encourage you to help me update this list. You may find some gems or you may add them too if it's not there yet. Here's the link. :) https://www.notion.so/Manga-Manwha-Manhua-Reading-List-c6d659d0cb4e42dca850fae2e89f36b2
I personally use the Kaspersky antivirus app since I have the internet security version on my desktop which covers any device I add on, though you would need to pay it's simple to use and clean. Password manager, safe money - for online purchases - and other handy things.
This one looks good, though you would need to do more research to see what works for you.
If it's legitimately translated novel like this then one can have an expectation of translation quality. If it's unauthorised translation like most KR novels online, be prepared for anything from almost-professional quality to utter gibberish from unedited MTL.
The Game is enjoyable and it's F2P, if you don't have enough diamonds to do an action that you want to do, just tap the top left-hand corner of your screen and a button appears that will take you out of the chapter, then be patient and collect gems till you can play again, it just takes time =)
I don't think it really is a focus for many of them.
I read one recently, accomplishments of the dukes daughter, which actually focuses on the local politics and how the world works.
If you are open for novels, Obsessions of an otome gamer is a well written drama and officially translated. It features a group of teens playing classical instruments, an homage to the shoujo subgenre (ex. Nodame Cantabile) and otoge (ex. La Corda D'oro). https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078QK6BZ9/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_61AF2CSBXSZVDGGFE2T2

Get ready for the rip-roaring light novel that inspired a viral comic sensation!
Two years after transmigrating into the fantasy BL novel Asterion of the Starry Blue Night, Rosalite—a minor character and the sister of the tragic male lead—learns that she is fated to repeat her life every time her brother dies.
No matter how hard she tries, her brother, Rion, continues to attract toxic men and almost always perishes by the age of 20, whether by murder or by taking his own life, fating Rosalite to return to her 16-year-old body.
After nearly two dozen attempts to get the timeline right, Rosalite has run out of patience for all these sleazy men: Touch My Brother and You Die!

When a reader is reincarnated into a hardcore rated-R novel as Estella, the most precious child of the villainous Kartina family, she learns that the life of a cunning archer, deadly apothecary, and bomb maker isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. After all, this is a world of violent fiction, and there’s only one ending awaiting her family… death by male lead!
Armed with the knowledge of the plot and her family’s regrettable demise, Estella decides to approach the story from an entirely new angle. She pretends to be a helpless and frail sister to her older siblings Kalen, Ada, and Alya—both to protect them from their miserable fates and change the course of the future for their marks. But with the male lead Rodrigo Erhart at the top of their hit list, she has her work cut out for her.
Except is saving her family all there is to do? As Estella proves her worth to Rodrigo and gains his trust, are they also catching feelings? Only time will tell in The Obsessed Hero and the Villainous Family’s Daughter!
The perfect mug for him
the disrespec for my boy Raffaello.
i actually have a theory that he is a great character, despite the author's constant efforts to make him bland. I was gonna post a whole damn essay about it when i re-read this OI and confirm it (since i didn't read past chapter 30)
It is self published on Webtoon and the volume 1 is on Amazon. I like it quite a lot.
Every Rose Has a Death Flag Vol. 1 (comic) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09Z1DVVHM/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_K9A7K92W9H07KN193TQN
It's on Amazon .
Pretty sure IFYou only works in like the US or something but I did post a method on how to get it a few days ago
"For anyone wondering, this is from the recently released English version of the game Plop by COWON that is on QooApp (apparently Eng ver is also now on QooApp, can't conform cause QooApp doesn't work for me). I believe it's available on Google Play and Appstore but only in some countries like the US. So what I had to do is download a VPN (make sure you do this using data not wifi) connect to a US server, create a new Google account (set language to US English) and then paste the link of the game. I believe it should come up if you search 'IFYou Episodes' as well. And then it's ready to download!!"
Also, Touch My Little Brother hasn't come out yet, on IFYou it still says coming soon :)

Ohyea, forgot about that aspect! Yea i can understand why she’d try to make them more friendly w/ each other, since they need the Saints power for his madness… but there was this scene in one of the chapters https://snipboard.io/9f6ER8.jpg (just viche thinking about how Jade’s image is getting worse in the Saints’ eyes and something about a cupid campaign) but then again it might be due to the translators . I just interpreted it as Viche is still trying to get these 2 together :)))
It doesn’t seem like (but I may be wrong) it’s licensed in English. However, it is available in Japanese here
There is a novel called Obsessions of an Otome Gamer. It's set in the game world of a classical music school (think of La Corda d'Oro) and MC plays piano. What's really nice about the book is the MC actually loves music.

If you have an Android, I use the Tachiyomi app! Let's you read, save, and organize series from multiple sources (I use Batoto, MangaDex, and Manganato mainly, or I link directly from the translator group's website).
If you plan to only use Tachiyomi, is better to install Neko, is a modification of Tachiyomi but only for Mangadex. You can login and do more things. You can download it here: https://tachiyomi.org/forks/Neko/
I haven't tried this yet but I found this the other day: https://www.reddit.com/r/manga/comments/97aaeq/anyone_else_having_issues_with_scrolling_on/e46nkwg/?context=3
If you're on Android you should just download Tachiyomi and use it instead of your browser, it's 1000x better.
> Also, if my Tachiyomi looks old, it's because I intentionally use an older (0.8.5) version of it because I prefer the layout
You should try the J2k fork (https://tachiyomi.org/forks/TachiyomiJ2K/). Much, much better.
Without going too much into novel spoilers, tbh DITOEFTV is one of the better Yandere MLs romances I've read, in that the yandere MLs do have plausible reasons they treat the FL like shit, and the FL is reasonably wary of them in return.

Well, so far, it’s translated up to chapter 14. But I haven’t seen any updates in a while, so I wonder if it’s dropped? Anyway I read the newest chapter on Mangago, I’d recommend making an account so the ads wouldn’t appear to you (It’s better to create an email just for this, don’t use your main one). The site allows you to make lists, mark your mangas as “I want to read”, “reading” and “already read”, I think it’s useful.
You can also buy it on Amazon. And for free, you can read in japanese here. Use adblock (E.g brave for mobile, Ublock Origin for notebook/computer). Aside from this, I don’t know much, sorry.
I'd go for the crown prince or the king, regardless of if he's the ml or whatever. I don't want love, I want political power and means to bring seriously important societal change, such as in hygiene and medicine and all those necessary knowledge that I still remember for the time being.
There's that book for inspiration.
That, or I'm going to shamelessly publish my Pokemon fanfictions as original work.
I just found out there is a what appears to be an official light novel for it? 3 volumes are out... Altho it appears the author has moved on to another series?

> Father I don't want this marriage (wasn't some other company going to be translating this?)
Wordexcerpt already did -> https://www.amazon.com/Daddy-Dont-Want-Marry-Marriage-ebook/dp/B08TWH4S8R
Same with A Villainess for the Tyrant
There is also the recent release of the novel version of Father, I don't want to get married, but can't speak for the quality either :-)
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08TWH4S8R/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_DKRMDEFNEA1JJYKYYE18
Wordexcerpt is the bomb. Not only Korean novels, but they also published translated one of my fave Chinese novel, I Refuse To Be a Supporting Character
I hopefully hold out from getting the individual chapters and wait out the kindle version of The Male Lead Is Mine
I used to read them and they all sort of blend together as they all sort of hit the same exact beats and they are all basically just porn for women dressed up in different outfits (like seriously, the beats used in trashy novels make them all pretty much identical stories). So I only know about a dozen or a score of different titles.
BUT... there was ONE where the male lead suffers some delicious angst. A Night with a Rogue by Alexandria Hawkins.
A woman scorned bargains with her sexy hot philandering brother to seduce the woman who she's pissed at. He agrees because he's a dick and likes sleeping around and how dare she hurt his imoto-chan. Except he actually falls for her and has a lot of angsty conflict and denial about the fact he's falling for her. Then there's a major conflict in the third act (as there always is) as she is going to be forced into an arranged marriage because of her family's financial situation (which is shit to say the least) and he's too dumb (full of anger and angst thinking she chose this other guy) to realize what's going on and he goes through a ton of angst before the dashing rescue and happy ending.
I've never known another novel like it where the male lead is a proper tsundere who is originally cruel and heartless but has the tables turned on him with such delicious angst, so if you ever find another let me know!
