"Is It Okay to Fall in Love with an Idol?" is a fresh new romantic comedy visual novel.
You become the manager of the new idol group "Melonchu (♡愛恋人♡)".
To succeed in their debut live concert, romance with the active idols is strictly forbidden... But love flags are popping up left and right, and the members start with MAX affection!
How will you overcome this crisis?
It's a chaotic romantic comedy with a "no dating" rule—a first in the otome game genre (perhaps!?)!
The story progresses on a common route until the live concert.
The Dilemma: Choosing options that increase the idols' affection will decrease the Live Success Rate.
Your Goal: Select choices that increase the Live Success Rate to guide the story toward a successful debut!

Kagura Issa (CV: Yoshino Kaku)
Leader of Melonchu. In charge of rap and hand clapping. Self-centered and bossy, but confident in his looks. Fell in love with the manager upon their chance meeting.

Nijo Ranmaru (CV: Fujie Tatsuya)Dance member of Melonchu. His speech is rough, and he has a strong attitude, but he easily shows his affectionate side. Fell in love with the manager upon their chance meeting.

Mitoge Otoha (CV: Inou Koki)SNS member of Melonchu. Low-tension and speaks in mysterious internet slang from the Heisei and Reiwa eras. Fell in love with the manager upon their chance meeting.

Shibaura Reiji (CV: Yoshimura Yuu)Production Accounting staff. Seems to care about you, the new manager. He knows the current affection levels of the Melonchu members and can inform you of them.

Aida Mei (CV: None) Name Change AvailableThe Protagonist (You). She had a favorite idol group long ago, but lost her memory due to the shock of their sudden disbandment.

Reviews
Such a cute, short, and funny game overall. If you wanted something quick and lighthearted and you love idols, this one's for you. I do wish the game was a bit longer though. Hopefully Mikimaki can consider adding a DLC that expands the routes in the future. Now to the character thoughts for the route that I wanted to play the most: [spoiler]I like how accessible Reiji's route is. He's the only guy I truly wanted to date in the game (and the only reason why I downloaded this game to begin with), so knowing that his lore is about him an ex-idol that the MC loves and eventually the both of them falling in love with each other is just so peak. Needed more of those two so much I love Reiji a LOT.[/spoiler]
