Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru (処女はお姉さまに恋してる?, lit. The Maidens Are Falling in Love with Me), commonly known as Otoboku (おとボク?), is a Japanese adult visual novel developed by Caramel Box and released on January 28, 2005 as a limited edition playable on a Microsoft Windows PC. Subsequent releases include consumer ports by Alchemist on the PlayStation 2 (PS2) and PlayStation Portable (PSP) with the adult content removed, and a version of the game by Caramel Box which was a DVD playable on a PC and included full voice acting. The story centers around Mizuho Miyanokouji, an androgynous male high school student,[1][2] who transfers into an all-girls school due to his grandfather's will.

A sequel to the visual novel titled Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru: Futari no Elder (処女はお姉さまに恋してる ～2人のエルダー?, lit. The Maidens Are Falling in Love With Me: Two Elders) (Otoboku 2) was developed by Caramel box and released on June 30, 2010 playable on a Windows PC. This story centers around Chihaya Kisakinomiya, an androgynous male, who transfers into an all-girls school too. Otoboku 2 was ported to the PSP by Alchemist on April 28, 2011 and an anime adaptation has been announced.

A manga adaptation of Otoboku illustrated by Kanao Araki was serialized in ASCII Media Works' Dengeki Daioh between the November 2006 and August 2008 issues. A manga adaptation of Otoboku 2 illustrated by Akuru Uira began serialization in the July 2010 issue of Kadokawa Shoten's Comp Ace. An Otoboku anime was adapted by Feel which aired in Japan between October and December 2006 and contained twelve episodes, with an extra original video animation (OVA) episode included in the last DVD released in April 2007. Media Blasters licensed the anime and released the series in three DVD volumes between June and October 2008. An anime adaptation of Otoboku 2 has been announced. Other adaptations of Otoboku and its sequel include novels and drama CDs.

According to a national ranking of how well bishōjo games sold nationally in Japan, the Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru limited edition PC release premiered at number two in the rankings. The limited edition achieved a ranking of four out of fifty in the ranking for the next two weeks. The first two DVDs released by Media Blasters were generally panned in reviews at Anime News Network where the series was described as "cruelly unimaginative" with "obnoxious quirks and technical shortcomings." In a review of the anime by Mania Entertainment, the series is thought to be "very predictable and bland."

Gameplay

Example of what average conversation looks like in Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru. Here, Mizuho is talking with Kei (left) and Sion (right).

The gameplay in Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru follows a plotline where the player interacts at predetermined times to choose from several options that appear on the game screen. Each path is divided into eight episodes, one interlude episode and an epilogue. At the end of an episode, an announcement of the next episode appears showing a preview of what is to consist in the next episode. Each episode takes place within the span of one month between June and March from episode one through the epilogue. The interlude episode was placed between the second and third episodes.[3]

The goal of the original version's gameplay was for the player to enable the viewing of several adult scenes depicting Mizuho Miyanokouji and one of the six heroines having sexual intercourse. When the game was ported to the PlayStation 2 (PS2) console, the gameplay was somewhat altered.[4][5] The PS2 version, and later the anime adaptation, both had the sexual content removed, and in these versions there is no evidence that physical relationships actually take place between any of the students.[6]

There are ten additional sub episodes and a special sub episode. The CD and DVD editions contain four sub episodes, the fandisc Caramel Box Yarukibako contains four sub episodes and a special episode,[7] Caramel Box Yarukibako 2 contains two sub episodes,[8] and the PlayStation 2 version contains six sub episodes, though the order in which they appeared was altered.

The goal of Otoboku 2 is also for the player to enable the viewing of several adult scenes depicting Chihaya and one of the six heroines having sexual intercourse. The gameplay is somewhat altered on the PSP version. The PSP version has the sexual content removed, the scenarios of Utano Sasou and Kaori Kamichika that appeared in the PC version are removed, and it contains newly-added scenarios of You Kashiwagi and Hatsune Minase.[9][10] There are three additional sub episodes in the PC version of Otoboku 2.

Plot

Setting

The primary setting is at a private all-girls school named Seio Girls' Academy, also called Seio Jogakuin Christian Education,[11] which was founded in 1886 by Mizuho's ancestor.[3] Seio was originally named Keisen Girls' Academy (恵泉女学院 Keisen Jogakuin?), which was used in original PC version,[3] the drama CD of the visual novel, and for the Caramel Box Yarukibako fan disc. This name was later ascertained to be similar to a name of an actual school, and the school's name was changed to Seio Girls' Academy (聖應女学院 Seiō Jogakuin?, 聖応女学院 as written in PlayStation 2 version).[12] Seio is used in the PlayStation 2 version, DVD PC edition, Caramel Box Yarukibako Fukkoku-ban and anime series. The secondary setting is at a dormitory building named Sakura-yakata (櫻館?), which Mizuho, Mariya, Yukari and Kana are boarding at. There are four other former dormitories named Tsubaki-yakata, Enoki-yakata, Hisagi-yakata and Hiiragi-yakata.[13]

Main characters

Main article: List of Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru characters

The player assumes the role of Mizuho Miyanokouji, the protagonist of Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru. He is a kind high school student who impersonates a girl at an all girl's school, which he transfers into per his grandfather's will. He spends his time with many fellow attendees, some of which live in the nearby dormitory, and enjoys helping them with any problems they may have. His childhood friend Mariya Mikado attends the school with him, and helps in his female transition. She has a spirited personality[14] with a bit of a temper, and has been a support for Mizuho in the past. Mizuho meets a classmate named Sion Jujo[A] who has a silent voice and demeanor;[15] she quickly figures out that Mizuho is actually a boy, but tells no one. The previous year, she had to be hospitalized soon after she was elected as the Elder due to an illness.[3]

At the dormitory lives an energetic first-year student named Yukari Kamioka. She is on the track and field team along with Mariya, who is her Oneesama (お姉さま?, meaning "Older sister"), and has low confidence in her ability to run. Another first-year at the dormitory named Kana Suoin meets Mizuho on the day he moves in, and soon after Mizuho becomes her Oneesama. Kana is more than happy to serve Mizuho any way she can, since she admires him immensely. A hyperactive ghost resides in Mizuho's room named Ichiko Takashima and is shown to speak very fast when excited. She says that Mizuho looks very much like her previous Elder love interest, who turns out to be Mizuho's deceased mother. The student council president at Seio is Takako Itsukushima who tends to have a serious personality.[3]

Story

Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru revolves around the main protagonist Mizuho Miyanokouji, a male high school student. After Mizuho's grandfather dies, his will is reviewed, which explains his desire to have his grandson transfer to Seio Girls' Academy, the same one his own mother attended and his ancestors founded. Abiding by the will, Mizuho cross-dresses to attend the school. The headmistress, the deputy head teacher (visual novel only), Mizuho's homeroom teacher Hisako Kajiura and Mariya Mikado initially know his secret; Sion Jujo and Ichiko Takashima also eventually find this out. Mizuho is very popular among the other students, who often talk about how pretty, nice, and athletic Mizuho is. This rampant popularity escalates to him even being nominated against his will to join in on the Elder election. By these terms, the current student council president, Takako Itsukushima, runs against Mizuho.

The Elder election is an old tradition at Seio Girls' Academy where every June one of the students is elected by her peers to be the "Elder", who is seen as the number one "Elder Sister" in the school. Until her graduation, she is referred to by her peers as Onee-sama (お姉さま?). To become an Elder, a candidate must gain at least 75% of the votes. If none of the candidates get at least 75% in the first round of voting, one of the candidates hands over her votes to another candidate, and the candidate who finally obtains at least 75% of the votes becomes the Elder. If there is no one else in the election, the current year's student council president becomes the Elder. In Otoboku, Mizuho gains 82% of the votes in the first round, effectively becoming the 72nd Elder in the school's history. After becoming Elder, Mizuho progressively gets more popular among the student body since he is now a symbol of the school's excellence. In the following months, Mizuho starts to get to know some of the girls better and helps them with their problems.

Otoboku 2

Otoboku 2 is written from the viewpoints of main character Chihaya Kisakinomiya and secondary character Kaoruko Nanahara. The player assumes the role of them; Otoboku 2 begins about two years after Mizuho's graduation. The main protagonist Chihaya Mikado was truant at his school because of harassment in the school and of a distrust in men. His mother cannot bear to watch him be in trouble, so she makes him transfer to Seio Girls' Academy, her old school. He dresses as a girl and introduces himself as Chihaya Kisakinomiya. Chihaya meets another protagonist Kaoruko Nanahara, who once rescued him from a playboy, and he begins to live in the dormitory building. He becomes the focus of public attention due to his attractive face and figure, and due to high grades at studies.

In the 75th Elder election, there are four finalists; Hatsune Minase hands over her votes to Kaoruko and Makiyo Shingyouji hands over her votes to Chihaya. Then Chihaya and Kaoruko gain the same votes of 368 together. Though a candidate which gains 75% or more of the votes becomes the Elder, Hatsune, as the student council president, proposes that both Chihaya and Kaoruko become the Elders; the motion is adopted unanimously. This is the first time there have been two Elders in the history of Seio Girls' Academy.

Development

Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru is the fourth visual novel developed by Caramel Box. The scenario is written by Aya Takaya,[16] and this was the first time Takaya was staffed on a Caramel Box game.[17] Art direction and character design is done by Norita,[16] who was staff's on Caramel Box's debut release Blue as an artist.[18] The super deformed illustrations featured in Otoboku were drawn by the game illustrator Yoda.[3] The music direction was headed by the music team Zizz Studio.[16]

The original title uses the kanji 処女 (shojo), which means "virgin", but is very close to the word for "young lady", shōjo. The creators added furigana subscript to indicate they wanted it read "otome" meaning "young maiden". Additionally, furigana was added above お姉さま (onee-sama) to indicate that they wanted it read "boku".[19] Despite the different kanji, the official reading is "Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru".[19] When the game was ported to the PlayStation 2, it was rewritten as 乙女はお姉さまに恋してる with the same pronunciation of "Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru", which uses the actual "otome" (乙女?) kanji.[20] The latter name was kept for the manga and anime releases.

Release history

A free game demo version of Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru can be downloaded at the game's official website.[21] The visual novel was first released in Japan as a limited edition version on January 28, 2005 for the PC and contained two game CD-ROMs.[19] This release came with a special story book entitled Tsunderera with the whole package. On February 18, 2005, the regular edition was released, and one select lot of this version contained a limited edition sticker. On June 24, 2005, a fan disc called Caramel Box Yarukibako was released and contained an additional scenario that furthered the story from the original visual novel; the fan disc came with a gift called "Vine" (ヴィネ?). The fan disc was re-released under the title Caramel Box Yarukibako Fukkoku-ban on January 26, 2007,[22] and came with the final PC release of Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru.[23] The first consumer console port of the game was released for the PlayStation 2 (PS2) on December 29, 2005 by Alchemist.[20] Additional scenarios were included in the PS2 version written by Kiichi Kanō.[6] The fully voiced DVD version of Otoboku was released on April 28, 2006 for the PC. [19] A PlayStation Portable (PSP) port was released on April 29, 2010 by Alchemist.[24]

Reception

According to a national ranking of how well bishōjo games sold nationally in Japan, the Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru limited edition PC release premiered at number two in the rankings.[72] The limited edition achieved a ranking of four out of fifty in the ranking for the next two weeks.[72] The regular edition PC release premiered at number six in the rankings,[73] and stayed in the top fifty for a month and a half until mid-April 2005. The regular edition was again in the rankings for May 2005, managing to rank in at thirty-eight and forty-nine.[74] The Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru PC edition playable as a DVD premiered at number thirteen in the rankings and stayed at that rank for the next listing.[75] The DVD edition ranked twice more over the next month: the first at forty-three and the last at thirty-three.[76]

The first two anime DVD volumes released by Media Blasters were reviewed by Anime News Network. In the review of the first DVD, the reviewer Carl Kimlinger generally panned the volume, commenting how the three episodes were "cruelly unimaginative" where "afterwards it's one long slide into a torturous hell of girls' school tripe where not even humor or romance can pierce the veil of pain." The Catholic girl's school premise is likened to Maria-sama ga Miteru and Strawberry Panic!, and is considered to be used "merely as visual spice."[77] For the second DVD volume, Kimlinger wrote that "while the onslaught of squealing, caffeinated moe-bait has abated somewhat in its ferocity, a sagging of the already listlessly undirected plot ensures that the series' sophomore outing is only marginally more tolerable than the first." Further, the series is described as having "obnoxious quirks and technical shortcomings."[78]

The first two anime DVD volumes released by Media Blasters were also reviewed by Mania Entertainment. In the review of the first DVD, the reviewer Chris Beveridge felt the anime reminded him of "parts of Princess Princess, especially when it came to the Elder status piece. It's even reminiscent of Strawberry Panic in this way." The series is described as "all about the "moe" factor, bringing about an atmosphere that makes you like the characters, care about them and feel good about seeing them interact. It does it well even if it doesn’t have an amazing hook."[1] For the second DVD volume, Beveridge commented that the series continues to be "very predictable and bland" which is "at this point fun but entirely forgettable." Beveridge also wrote how "the characters are all pleasant, nicely designed and with mildly interesting personalities that could lead to something more but never does."[79]
