![]() Normally I find ending collection a very tedious aspect in Visual Novels, but this was not the case for this game. The game has 10 + gag endings for a reason, and it was actually really enjoyable reading all of them. I honestly cracked up too many times to count at the character’s crazy antics throughout the game, because of how bizarre and unexpected all the events were. ![]() It’s definitely not something to be taken seriously or literally, and if you have a dark sense of humour-this game is comedy gold. Because of how ridiculous and whacky everything is, it’s very easy to distinguish that at the end of the day-Fashioning Little Miss Lonesome is a game, rather than a direct reflection of real life. However, for me personally I was still able to enjoy the game because I can see the direction the writers decided to take with the storyline. If you’re not a fan of this type of humour, then I don’t recommend playing the game as it can become very uncomfortable for you. For some people, the message it sends to young and impressionable girls and the sense of humour trespasses the boundaries of acceptability. Black humour is prevalent throughout the game where they constantly body shame the heroine, insult and belittle her, and threaten and make fun of her. There are many moments throughout Fashioning Little Miss Lonesome where the characters break the fourth wall or poke fun at stereotypical otome game tropes.Īs a result, the characters use very extreme methods in essentially forcing the heroine to obey to their whims and model for Miki’s clothes. This game has the running theme of very exaggerated gags, notable satire, and it’s almost a parody in itself. Now this is where there has been a lot of mixed reception and controversy amongst players, in regards to their treatment of the protagonist in transforming her into a model. It is upon meeting the two male bachelors that her life is essentially turned upside down and changed forever. For example: her love of food, sleeping and her struggles with socialising with her classmates. As a protagonist, she is down-to-earth, blunt, straightforward and quite relatable in several aspects to a lot of people. It’s a romantic school life comedy with a very light-hearted storyline that explores the transformation of a regular high school girl. To summarise Fashioning Little Miss Lonesome in a few words: it is whacky, ridiculous, extremely exaggerated, and downright hilarious. “Yeah, well… Who asked you?!” ( Offical Website Summary) These two ambitious and attractive fellows decide to give Ema Tachibana a makeover! He aspires to accomplish something so big, it’ll change the world. But even you have some potential to shine… I’ll just have to polish you up!”Īnd Saito Shinjou-he frequently finds himself bored because things have always come easy to him. “Listen up, twerp! You’re no good the way you are now. He has a strong desire to help make charming, unusual women shine. Miki Hiraizumi-recently returned to Japan from abroad, he’s loved making clothes ever since he was a little kid. “It’s you… I’ve finally found you!

In fact, she was all set to spend the rest of her time until graduation invisible as ever… At school, everyone’s too scared to approach her.īut Ema herself is quite content with that state of affairs. With all that working against her, she’s never really had any friends. Storyline ★★★Įma Tachibana is a tall, gloomy and unsociable girl with a bad case of resting bitch-face. I’m quite happy with how it turned out, and that is why there’s a small watermark on the image. So after some photoshopping, I managed to recreate the above image that is similar to what is seen on the official website. I received a review copy from MangaGamer to try out and write my thoughts on the game.įor the title image I used for this review I wasn’t able to find any pictures that didn’t have tags such as ‘announcement/release date/demo’ plastered all over it. I’ll elaborate more on why I feel this way in the ‘storyline’ section of my review. However, the translation quality for this was terrible so I do not recommend trying it out.ĭespite a lot of the controversies surrounding body image and the male treatment of the MC in this game, I still really enjoyed playing it. I can’t think of any others off the top of my head that are available in english, outside of Les Fleursword. This was a very exciting localisation from MangaGamer as R18+ otome games rarely ever see any traction for english releases.
