April 2025

Overall, it’s a really great game, but there are a few things that bug me—mainly the heroine’s dialogue. I’m not sure why the localization team chose to sprinkle in random Japanese romaji like tasukete or sono toori mid-sentence. I understand it’s a Japanese game originally, but I personally prefer a full English translation without the unnecessary romaji. It just feels out of place and disrupts the flow. Then there’s her obsession with finger guns. Once or twice would’ve been fine, even quirky. But when it’s repeated so many times, it starts to feel forced and a little annoying. Maybe it’s just me—but as someone who isn’t overly upbeat, I sometimes feel like the heroine is overreacting in situations where a calmer response would make more sense. Her energy feels a bit too much at times, almost overbearing. That being said, the game excels in many other areas. The background music is beautiful, and the storyline is compelling. I especially appreciate the auto-save feature at every choice point—it’s incredibly helpful for avoiding bad endings or for those trying to unlock all the routes. Just jump into the auto-save menu, and you’re good to go. On a side note, Cinderella’s route has quite a few translation issues. Ironically, in sections where Japanese names should’ve been preserved—like when Alice gives names to Arisu—we instead get random English names like Jordan or Casey, instead of something more culturally appropriate like Nagisa or Makoto. Yet, in scenes where romaji isn’t needed at all, the translation unnecessarily throws it in. As I mentioned before, I’m not a fan of the heroine’s personality. She often comes off as overly assertive and self-important. Personally, I prefer heroines who are more soft-spoken, adorably clueless, and modest.

I really like this chapter. Both love interests are really cute and funny, and their interactions with Yurika are just the best (Yurika is just the best main character an otome player could've asked for). I'd say I had some problems with Cinderella's route's pacing, and some others with Akazukin's route's ending, but overall very silly, fun, and hearthwarming game :) Akazukin best boy.

I am enjoying the story so far. The plot is interesting, However, I have an issue with the MC. She is so very cringe. She has no idea what personal space is, and does the cringiest actions like finger guns and mixing Japanese words with English not once in a while but all the time. She could have been better written. She just has a really weird personality that is hard to relate to.

Taisho x Alice is one of the best otome VNs I've ever played in my entire life ever because of the amazing story, characters, voice-acting, music, art-- everything. If you are interested to know what this game is about I'm afraid you won't get the answer immediately in the first two routes however, in the upcoming episodes the story gets much darker and you will uncover the truth about the whole story. I've reread this story at least 4 times now and my advice for new readers, you should keep in mind for some of the lines they said and I suggest getting the bad endings as well.

July 2024

A refreshing FL, pretty art, amazing voice acting, pretty good en translation and interesting storyline that actually make me sympathetic for both of the ML here. I really like the way FL of this game respond to the characters, the way the interaction goes is actually really good. I like the Red Riding Hood's route more eventho i dont quite like the decision that the FL made.
