Right, so I am not the biggest fan of stats raisers and life simulators, I find the constant grinding of stats tedious and frustrating.

Yes, this is a life simulator/stats raising game! The entire game takes place over the course of an entire year as you control every aspect of the protagonist, Haato’s life. Navigate the ups and downs of the VA world, honing your skills by taking classes at the local VA School or spend time getting to know your fellow VAs and other celebrities as you gain more notoriety in the voice acting industry. Heck, I challenge you to find a game that has as many features as Seiyuu Danshi, you step into the shoes of newbie voice actor Haato, as he attempts win the coveted Seiyuu Award or risk getting dropped by his agency.

Seiyuu Danshi is a highly interactive game. 5 pursuable male characters (and 2 Secret Characters).

So, when the final version of the game was released I was eager to see the fruits of the developers’ labors and I’m not gonna lie, Seiyuu Danshi is a pretty impressive game. It was a fresh idea at the time and at least in the limited time frame of the demo, the stats raising wasn’t too overbearing and felt much more casual than I expected going in.

When I initially played the demo for Meyaoi Games’s boys love stats raiser Seiyuu Danshi back in 2016, I was excited for all the interesting features, stats raising included. However, I kind of feel like I got a pretty good sense of the game as a whole after my first playthrough and I’d like to share my “experience”.Ī large part of the gameplay is dedicated to the stats raising, but with elements of a life simulator thrown in, giving players full control of the game’s protagonist, Haato as he navigates his career as a voice actor and his relationships-both platonic and romantic-with the game’s colorful and expansive cast of characters. I think a disclaimer is in order with this game, since I’ve only really finished one route in Seiyuu Danshi, so this isn’t a “full game review” in the traditional sense.
