Thank you to @guacameowle for letting me borrow the format of their SLBP trigger post for this, and to @hakuoyuki (Satomi) who translated parts of the routes and helped me put this list together. Love you Sato 💕💕
Hey everyone! So, my last post about Ikémen Prince was pretty lighthearted and fun; this one is a bit more serious. I’ve been seeing comments from several people about how ikepri is just “Midcin 2.0” and it’s really…… not. So, I’m writing this as a sort of precautionary post for anyone who is interested in playing the game, because I don’t want anybody to be going in blind and getting triggered by any of the content.
Ikémen Prince is by far the most mature of the games, in terms of both r18 content as well as dark themes. Almost all routes in this game deal with graphic war, violence, and blood and gore, as well as having very heavy sexual themes at times. There is also a specific order to read the routes in, based on both the number of triggering themes, as well as how it best makes the game’s lore coherent as well.
The format of the routes is similar to the format for Ikémen Sengoku: the routes are a single story line up to chapter 20, where they split off into the [True love] route and the [Passionate Love] route. For now, I have only included the first three routes that come with the release of the game; as each new route gets announced, I will add them to the list^^
Edit: the English version of the game has changed [True Love] and [Passionate Love] to [Romantic] and [Dramatic]. In regards to this, the list has been altered accordingly.

As stated before, everything here is from the Japanese version of the game. I don’t know what the English team will choose to censor (and alternatively, what they will embellish). Everything in this list is subject to change depending on how the game is localised. Just give me a heads up and I’ll edit it accordingly^^.
The prompt for day 5 of Erenweek (2025) was Hidden Place. I always viewed Erenville as someone who is an incredibly emotionally closed off character. As such, he rarely, if at all, opens up — even to those closest to him. While I think he learns to be better about it in the long run, he still finds solace when on his own.
I have to remember I do have a tumblr.
In any case, I also wanted to announce I'm most active on bluesky now
