"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!

不是说好了不能和偶像谈恋爱吗?结果你骗我啊0-0
short simple and straight forward story with more focus on the comedy but some sweet moments. the extra content (dress up room, seiyuu commentary, theme song vers) unlocked after you achieve each good end is a nice bonus
cg立绘还蛮漂亮的ww有全配音这一点就可以值回票价,不过剧情有点无聊,文案感觉也一般般,节奏好快嗖一下就结束了 完全无脑小甜饼来的,随便玩玩倒也还不错,零司线很美味口牙而且相对比较完整(并且恋爱没有什么负罪感)ww别的男主都没有he线(理应如此嗯嗯,idol还是要给我好好约束一下自己的感情的啊喂!)

好玩的!翻译快给我笑死了,太有代入感了,一开始以为是纯乙游结果剧情走向和设想的完全不一样,缺点的话就是太短了,等史低买个当小甜品还行,没几口就吃完了
It's a cute little game, as someone who is super into idols generally speaking I would recommend as long as you plan on trying to actually help the group succeed in their live and not just try to date them out the gate (fastest way to failure) even though the game makes it SUPER tempting. Also Ranmaru is best boy.
a cute and funny short visual novel i got on sale for pretty cheap haha i love the characters and premise! i wish there was more content
为什么不能和蓝毛在一起,我爱上他了
打完所有结局,前面很轻松很好笑,但是后面打现役idol男主单人线感觉像昙花一现的梦,基本就谈了一天还是两天就面临分手抉择,不分被发现无限期休团,主控丢工作我也理解,但是对男主直接就没有交代了吗,分了开完演唱会也结束,就这样没了,体验感不是很好,感觉很断层。唯一体验好点的一条线是退役idol零司,算得上he[哭惹R][哭惹R][哭惹R][哭惹R][哭惹R],难受,建议可以修改一下结局的描写
