Reception
Tengoku Struggle -Strayside- is yet another great example of otome game. With a unique ambientation, filled with charismatic characters and a lively art direction, this is a very fun title worth checking out.
Tengoku Struggle -Strayside-Tengoku Struggle -Strayside- has all the elements that I love in an Otome game. An interesting world, good LI’s (Love interests) with some spicy scenes and a good story. I would recommend picking this up and just enjoying the journey.
I absolutely loved Tengoku Struggle -Strayside-. While the story suffers from a few translation typos and an inconsistent rhythm at times, it's an otome game that can offer you a long read, but one that also manages to be comical, as you watch Rin's relationship with the prisoners deepen.
