And no matter how much you wish it to be real it is not a real character.Not in the games in the anime yes,but not in the games. But the Fact is the FACT that Yui Komori’s idea is to be a VOICELESS, NAME CHANGEABLE,SELF INSERT, PLAYER’S AVATAR. You DON’T HAVE TO self insert if you don’t wish to,or like I said if you have already molded your vision from the Anime (god help you if you have :X ) …. The idea of the default named Player’s Avatar is to self insert the Player and help them experience more personally the quite,originally,dark story. So if you read for a moment,before jumping to hate and repeating the same thing over and over again…You will see,indeed there are Visual Novel Otoges with actual Main Characters.But Diabolik Lovers is NOT one of them. (plus she is a strong hero ) So,really if the idea of Diabolik Lovers to have a real MC instead an avatar,would they have left her with a changeable name and voiceless? Would they have made her character modifiable (in the frames of the story ofc ,it is an otoge after all it has a script)…? I think not. Christina in the Second Reproduction also doesn’t change her name and she has A VOICE. In that game your answers don’t change her character.In Diabolik Lovers your answers determine your avatar’s character,for better or for worse. You have a heroine that her character is not MODIFIABLE like “Yui”s here …. If you have played the game “The Second Reproduction”. ) Now,speaking about other types of otges. (Lets not forget that In the original DL,actually Shu’s ending 02 which is unlocked by the S answers,is far more interesting than his 01 “happy one”,that was later even used as his DL Prequel/Sequel Manga ending. It was giving you the chance to experience something dark,triggering,psychological and also show you there is no “love”at the end if you chose to be the victim. In the original game,where the abuse was far more brutal towards the player’s proxy ,even the “happiest” outcomes weren’t all that “happy”,because no matter if you become S or M ,getting treated that way IS NEVER OKAY. And naturally for better personal experience with such self insert,self projection cliche type of an otoge character,we played it as our own. Where you play from FIRST PERSON,and even when the game gives you your choices it says “decide YOUR fate”.

And later starting to play the first game at 2012 ,with having a plain looking avatar,with No Birth Date (Kanato’s character book shows that the birthday of your avatar depends on yours).

And for us,who are fans since the first Drama CDs,before there was even a player’s proxy to be formed.And as we know from the Rejet themselves the CDs are directly towards the listener /no proxies there at all/. But is a whole different thing to experience that on your OWN to play the game.

It is cool if you have read a review from some of the “gamers” eyes and their ways of perspective on the topic,to know a thing or two for some of the many game routs and different outcomes,realities and story lines ,different game that don’t really are connected to one another,while you are mixing it all into a one big mess in your heads. But I must assure you if Yui Komori exists quite real to you in the Anime,she DOES NOT in the actual games. Now,I understand that if you come as an anime fan,where everything is presented pretty wrong and it looks to you as a MC having a harem of vampires,and you wish to admire that MC for that (even for her obviously being too weak and not deserving that attention for her own qualities,but someone else’s blood inside of her). Cordelia コーデリア - The Demon King's Daughter - (( THE OTOME GAME HEROINES In the topic of the Diabolik Lovers,wherever or not there is a female lead there or an avatar: Let me show you some proves: I must say I keep forgetting that the majority in this fandom now,are the “DL Anime only”fans, or people who became gamers only after the anime,the majority even of the current “gamers”haven’t played the actual original Diabolik Lovers game,but done only the AU fandiscs.
