There's your problem, you have to be reading a whole *other* series, from *another author* in parallel while having already read the prequels that are published after both of the main series and aren't all out yet *and* travel into the future to read "Walk In Shadow" which is the last book of a sort of grandad-prequel trilogy by the original author. Then it all makes perfect sense and it reads like a standard philosophical symbolism-laden action-adventure /s

@@LynetteTheMadScientist oh no, that was the joke and i've revealed my power level! in japanese it has a similar (negative) meaning to otaku but since we use the word otaku in western anime/manga games fandom in a neutral or positive way, it's the same way among western fujos in my experience. in japanese it specifically means a girl/woman who is obsessed with yaoi/BL. which ik isn't quite the same as liking otome games since you play as a girl in those but there's a lot of overlap between women who like otome games and women who like BL well....yeah. if we are using words for types of otaku in english, fujoshi is the closest word that covers someone who would probably *already* be interested in ready to talk about otome games. got a current favorite btw?
