Just wanna share something 'bout my current addiction: otome game. Otome game is a 'reverse harem' game with a female protagonist and there are several attractive male characters around her, which you can most-likely hook up with in the end.
I'm gonna post some reviews of the game here..
Let's start with Yo-Jin-Bo. It's the first otome game i played which made me craving for more otome game :p.

Later that night, she has a strange dream of a scene about a hundred and fifty years ago and sees a princess of Mochizuki Clan (Hatsuhime) assassinated. Suddenly Sayori is sucked back to the past, and she realized that she's in Hatsuhime's body . During the quest, she meet a group of merceneries named Yozaburo (Yo), Jinnosuke (Jin), and Tainojo (whose nickname is ‘Bo’).

Impression:
The story was pretty good and funny -- although there are some japanese parody slang that i don't understand (contains lot of pop culture). I like all characters except for mon-mon, ittosai, and hatsuhime herself. Mon-mon is totally looks like perverted oyajii while ittosai..err..i like the megane type but his personality's just phsycho (no offense for ittosai's fans).. And i hate hatsuhime cuz she act like a dumb spoiled brat -___-'. My fav character is Yo cuz i luv green-haired character (just like Zoro-One piece, Ryotaro Tsuciura & Kazuki Hihara-La Corda D'oro) LOL despite him being shota here. Plus he's cute and he's voiced by Masakazu Morita (Ichigo-Bleach, FFX Tidus, Kazuki Hihara-La Corda D'oro) ふふふ.. Background music was good..really fit with the setting. Artstyle was okay, but nothing special really. I guess this game is quite entertaining to play, so you might enjoyed it so much. I highly recommend this game for beginners in otome game since only a few of otome game out there has an english version or an english patch.^^;
