(is this the right flair?)

So there is this otome (or -ish) game i remember playing when i was young and downloading just about anything interesting from the app store. (One i remember is 'my bittersweet romance' about these alien brothers needing coffee or something?)

But the one i am having a hard time remembering is one where you, the protagonist, become a teacher at a school for men who keep fucking up their dates with women, and you pick one of three to help out. There are endings where you manage to either help them out or end up with them, and im pretty sure you could also fail your task.

One was a guy with red hair who was really egotistical and you taught him to care for others, another was a really shy and meek white-haired one who played the violin i think, and the last was a potentially dark haired otaku pervert?

I think there was supposed to be a final route with the guy who hired you, he was dressed in a silly purple top hat and suit i think. Called you 'queen bee'? before the game started properly, and the games name was something like cherry blossom high or something reminiscent of such? honestly no clue and i am now doubting myself.

The artstyle was no different than the anime-esque boys and men of other games i played. Sparkly. It wasnt particularily long or complicated, but i only finished like one and a half guys' routes and it annoys me that i cant even remember the name of it just to quench my curiosity.

i don't remember exactly when i was playing it, but it was likely between 2017-2020... it was free and i honestly dont remember there being any kind of currency (ugh gems..) necessary for anything good to happen.

I've been remembering this game on and off for years and every time i am more frustrated i cant even find mention of it. Could also just be i am a terrible researcher.

Even if i cant find it, does anyone else even remember this existing

Pls forgive me for using this dumb meme format.

2nd image is my entire reaction to Hiyori. I didn't think she was unlikeable at all. She got to be a little too much in Haiji's route but at that point he my LAST route I chose and it was explained anyway.

Hiyori stans rise up

EDIT: I didn't make it clear in the post but no, I don't think the only reason people dislike Hiyori is misogyny. I just never see so much hatred directed to male characters, especially when there's a male character in the game who professes the exact same beliefs as her. Even if it's not "hatred" and you just find her tropes annoying/too common for female characters, that doesn't make her poorly written either.

Okay I know we can’t ever truly predict these things for certain, but I’ve had my eye on this game since its Japanese release and I really, really would love it if it were to be localized. Especially because it looks so colorful and vibrant, and because it has eight LIs and two different MCs.

I know it didn’t get a dual language original release like HanaKare did, so does anyone have any insight into how likely it is that a company will localize Handsome Laundering? I know PQube also did a localization for HanaKare, so is it possible that they would also pick this title up? Or could it be someone else?

Thank you!

This is the fifth time I've aimed to get one of the confession endings for the Hiiragi/Mikage/Himuro friend group and failed. When I aimed for Mikage I got the basic friendship ending. When I aim for Hiiragi I got his basic ending. When I aimed for Himuro, I got his true ending.

I think I'm starting to go insane.

What am I doing wrong? I think I big part of it is that all the guys end up liking me too much. I think I need to stop being a weird little perfectionist and aiming for Rose Queen.

Any advice? Strategies that worked for you?

Thanks in advance!

i just start playing the game, and because i love costume cdrama (mostly the historical one) that got me so excited to play this, but i’m here for advice on the gacha part, for the banner, i’m not good at chinese (still learning HSK2) so i’m using translator for almost everything but i can tell they are two types of items that you can use to pull the card, the normal and limited one, and now they put this new banner that kinda look like a limited one but when i see the card list there’re some card that i could pull from normal banner, so i’m kinda confused is this banner worth to pull or should i just wait for the banner that are specific for the love interest ?

(ps. i did play few otome games growing up, but LADS and Light and Night is the only otome game that have a gacha pool in it that i really really into so my understanding was only from them, so i’m not trying to comparing them, it just that my knowledge is still shallow for this type of otome game)

(sorry that english is not my first language)
