Hello, to any who feel jipped, mislead, or lied to...
This game does have romance elements. Otome is a girlxboy game, and not all otomes have kissing scenes. Now they did originally plan for a full game to be otome based, however, if you aren't careful you won't find yourself on any of their routes. Seriously, you have several endings per each character and you can easily miss the romance for these characters.
"Romance that doesn't end in a kiss"
In all the routes and in all the endings?
Well, I personally wouldn't call it otome.
Otome game without even one kiss in all the routes is equivalent to a relationship where partners never kiss and never touch each other. Maybe this kind of relationship exist but it's abnormal.
I don't really think you're getting the point. At most this game is friendship with potential for a relationship. That's not otome. And it doesn't really matter if there are morbid endings... tons of games have morbid endings. That's not why people play otome games. I really don't think you get to say how many of us who supported this game feel. You may feel your own way but I know I feel misled by Lettuce Waltz.
Please refer to this site. Again romance isn't the only goal an otome can have.
