The Love and Deepspace Entwined Shadows Trailer has me SCREAMING

I have not played this game for a while, but after seeing the new Love and Deepspace Entwined Shadows trailer, I think I’ll be hopping back into it.

This is the first time we’re seeing an actual on-screen kiss that doesn’t fade to white or anything, and it has us all SCREAMING. The comments section on the YouTube video is going WILD:

As a “Zayne Girlie” myself, I had to peek at the comments thread in the top comment, and it’s pretty much what I expected it to be:

Can you really blame us all for going feral, though? JUST WATCH THIS SHORT AND YOU’LL UNDERSTAND WHAT I MEAN.

HALP I CAN’T BREATHE.

Honestly, Love and Deepspace is one of the most well-made otome games I’ve ever played to date. The graphics are beautiful, the combat and mini-games are all very well-made, the theme song is sung by none other than the brilliant Sarah Brightman. It’s not perfect; some of the writing si a bit corny, and the English voice acting isn’t the best (the Japanese voice acting is much better, IMHO). Everything else about the game is just so very polished! Compared to a lot of the other otome games available out there, Love and Deepspace really takes the genre to a whole new level.

I only stopped playing this game because leveling up and grinding for materials to progress through the story got a bit tedious for me. Plus, a lot of the really good content is only accessible via gacha game system, and I honestly never have the best of luck in games like that. (These are also the reasons I quit Genshin Impact, but that’s a different story altogether.)

I’m seriously considering playing Love and Deepspace again after seeing this trailer, though! I’ll have to calculate my budget for it like the boring, responsible adult that I am. 😂


EDIT: The Japanese Trailer has me screaming LOUDER

No offense to Zayne’s English VA, but I absolutely adore Takuya Sato as Rei! The way he says his lines here in this trailer is so…delicious. ❤️

Admittedly, I’m 100% biased in favor of the Japanese dub in general and I usually refer to the characters by their Japanese names (Rei, Seiya, and Homura). I just think the voice acting feels more authentic and natural in the Japanese dub than it does in the English version, overall!
