Kitty Love’s English Translation

Otome visual novels have been popping up on Nintendo Switch’s eShop a lot. They’re fluffy and sweet, some are a bit risqué, and the basic premise of all of them is that every guy wants to date you. Pick your favorite guy, go through their story, and hopefully you’ll get the “happy end”.

Another common feature of select otome games is an extremely poor translation. Today we’ll take a look at a game called Kitty Love -Way to look for love-.

You play a young woman (I named her Vessel Avatar) who works in a flower shop, and you’re cursed to transform into a cat every night. The way to break the curse is to kiss your true love. But you have a problem… you don’t have a true love! Time to woo a dude for a kiss.

Almost every line in the game has a spelling or grammar issue. Some lines are fine, but the way they’re worded makes them funny. I selected the best of the worst for this gallery. Enjoy!

Over the weekends and holidays, there's a lot of family with little kids visiting, buttering the week day, it's quiet and peaceful.

When I pull the right hand, there's right cat full up and when I tried to pull up the left hand, the left foot up.

(My purse? Locker and house key? I love my phone too!?)

When I looked into the cup, there was a reflection of me in cat.

Until now, I completely forgot to love someone for a while.

Kohei hold my butt with his palm and press my body firmly against his.

"This is my place. I brought you here because I wanted to clean your body, but is that okay?"

I was relaxed that I abandoned my body to him.

Kohei gently rubbed my head as I had my face into the milk.

I'm always checking my body in a morning. My hands, legs and body, all of them are human. I feel relieved.

I felt more depressed after sighing. So I got off from the bed to change my feeling.

"Hell...Kohei"

(Oh...... If I teaching him directly it'll be quicker and he'll eat some of the vegetables his mom)

My anxiety came out from my mouth.

Hime's fur had a beautiful and gold. It's flurry and eyes are the same color of the fur were shining. It's pausing for the pictures even.

"What? You're living?"

I can remembered from the corner of my head.

I took a beep breath and try to smile.

You are f to me

It smells like a garbage, but there's no one drunk here so it makes me feel calmer.

"Phew...... He didn't even knock the door. What a bad manner."

When I looked little troubled, Mr.Kawahara looked weird at me.

When he finished talking, he drowned on the sofa and looked up on the ceiling.

About the time when many dunk people went home, Mr.Kawahara came out from the shop

"......It's good now. This is a special live for kitty cat."

"I was fixing the flower, so that many customer will be ff, so that many people will be stopping by."

Then, there was a voice from behind, someone was trying to stand here a littlestanidngl

(Yarn...... I'm sleepy......)

My body was being honest, and my stomach was grumbling.

I felt a child and brought the equipment back inside the shop

6PM. The sound of the guitar started echoing. It was more like it echoed inside my internals.

I was about to explode, but if I make a scene,I'll be making a trouble, so I try not to get mad.

(Ah. Yesterday, Mr.Saijo wiped my body thoroughly. Woah...... no!)

"Thank you! Umwindowsill about the cat"

(He uses such an unusual flower organ. A vase that's long sideways is so fancy......)

I answered the home worried.

I was surprised and flapping my feet.

After I sent Mr.Saijo. remembered to stop breathing and I took a deep breath.

I cut the cake into the size for a mouth, I saw Takuma watching.

I looked towards the door towards the floor. It made frown.

"I'm in love with you. Wii you marry me instead."

I was surprised at the heard a voice echoed inside my head and pulled my body away.
