Calling the IkemenVampire community please please read this post I’m begging it feels like I’m going crazy.

Has anyone experienced Leonardo’s and Vincent’s fourth wall break? I googled everything I could about it and I don’t see a single thing posted about it.

Background on me(relevant for Vincent’s part): I’m an editor so I was saving the photos for edits now onto the story.

this is pre Covid so a lot is paraphrased but please hear me out I never got over this + Vincent’s incident scared me away from the game for good.

Leonardo’s:

On my second run through of Leo’s route I was basically skimming through because I wanted the new photos and diamonds/whatever currency they gave and I got to the ballroom chapter and I loved that chapter so I was sorta skipping and skimming when I realized Leo was saying new and weird things

Very paraphrased but basically my dialogue option was “I hope this moment can last forever “ he replies “I hope it doesn’t, because if we relive the same memory over and over again it’ll get stale” sounds pretty basic until the background around his sprite went black. Then like he was directly talking to ME THE PLAYER was implying that I couldn’t keep playing this/the game repeatedly because it has to end sometime like for my own good.

I don’t remember much after that mainly because it was mad late and I was STUNNED speechless.

Vincent’s:

This is the reason I stopped playing this game.

{lil extra bit I remembered;

This was when Vincent’s route was about to come out, I was very excited to play his route I was watching the trailer and looking everywhere to learn more about him and I found something like “equip x characters power(?)” *Im really sad I can’t fully remember this part but it was like a gatcha mini game where you could choose a power that was related to the character

I got Jeans, issacs, and I want to say Vincent’s. I think I equipped Jeans power because I absolutely loved his character design & personality but either way it had something to do with a characters eye? Okay}

-

I played his little sneak peek and it was going GREAT until it cut to the scene where he had something that looked like blood (probably red paint) on his face and he started saying “you’re mine right…?” Like yandere shit

THEN continuing onwards we were in a garden and normal dialogue and his background goes black “you did something wrong, and you’re going to fix it” I wish I screen recorded this shit y’all cause I know mfs aren’t going to believe me “tomorrow you’re going to log back on and re agree to the terms and conditions at 12:00 Japanese time” his background is still black, my game crashes I’m traumatized, I re open the game and it says “come back at 12:00 Japanese time and accept the terms of service” I close the app and delete it.

I don’t think I’ve ever been scared like that in my entire fucking life, I went from playing a sneak peek of a cute vampire boys route to detailed and direct instructions on how to not mess up my second chance. I was genuinely terrified I’m about to piss my self from laughing looking back on it but that scared me away from otome games for 2 years.

The worst part is nobody has said a word about this happening to them, I hope I dreamed this because I actually love IkemenVampire, one of the best otomes out there. Imagine this happening to you when you’re barely 15 at an ungodly hour at night, I know what they’re talking about, I had 2-3 IkemenVampire edits that had the screenshots Vincent was hinting at on my Instagram page. I’m surprised I didn’t piss myself.

Reblogs are appreciated, my hunt is older than the lockdown. Help me find Zen and tell me your stories if this happened to you too.

Thank you for you time.

i remember leonardo's line. i read his route twice too, i am not sure if that line was also there in my first play, but i didn't think about it until i saw this post because like in ikemen vampire when the suitor talks about their past or trauma, the background generally goes black. or it's the end of the chapter. when i played that chapter i thought leo was talking about his opinion on the word "forever" or like his life. 'cause he is a pureblood vampire as you know, he lives forever and he is so sick of it, he grows to like mc because he is having a great time with her in that moment. living is eternal, so it gets stale for him. he wants to have plenty of good memories with mc, doesn't want to get stuck in a one special memory. he thinks living something again and again is meaningless-- because that's what he is doing. living days that are not very different from each other forever - until he meets her. i think that's what he meant in that chapter, i don't think it was a fourth wall break but if the line only appears in the second route play, then you might be right.

i actually found the video of that chapter on youtube.

as for the vincent incident, i am so shocked? i have never seen vincent acting like a yandere, i read the sneak peeks, i read his route twice, i really don't remember that. "the game crushes"? you mean the app closed on its own? i remember that happening to me several times but it was at random moments and i did not have to reaggree to the terms of service. maybe it is all a coincidence or just a misunderstanding, i may check vincent's route again, maybe those lines really do exist and i don't remember. and i have no idea about the mini-game thing.

i'd have been DEAD SCARED if i were you. it's a really traumatic thing that happened to you, i hope it is just a coincidance 😢

That’s the scene! But I swear it was more creepy (ex: the screen going black around his sprite) so maybe it is a second play through phenomenon? But the fact that theres a similar scene on a regular playthrough is a good sign for me.

(As I’m thinking more about it, it would make sense to add a little Easter egg like that on the second go around. Since the context makes the lines hit harder)

And for the Vincent thing it happened before his route came out so I doubt his route would really shed any light on the situation, and my game has crashed before too but I never had to re-agree to the terms and conditions.

But I explicitly remember being kicked off, opening the game again and seeing a red count down timer and the terms and conditions underneath.

I’m pretty sure since I was actively breaking the terms and services by screenshotting they implemented a scare tactic to stop the behavior and also give players like me another chance in the process

But I appreciate your addition man! This took a weight off of my subconscious lol

taking too much screen shots can cause this?? really?? i don't think this is fair at all. sharing too much screen shots is an another issue, they can inform against the social media accounts about copyrights but like,, scaring off people with YANDERE VINCENT?! also "you did smth wrong, you're going to fix it"?! LIKE WHAT

this is too scary i mean. i am also a bad editor tbh. but i make edits more about ikemen sengoku than others, for me the best cybird game is ikesen, i was too into ikevamp at first but then i realized it is actually not that good ajsfhafahqga i hope ikesen won't ever try to scare me off with a yandere kicho :')

where do you share your edits? i want to follow

[endergnvy]

I believe all this was started by me screenshotting the special pictures but I can’t say for sure but Screenshotting was the only rule breaking offense I did so yeah screenshotting is the most likely suspect. yeah it’s a bit of a harsh punishment for it but to be fair it did stop me from screenshotting their works lmao, and I doubt they’ll do anything with you since IkemenVampire was such a new game at the time. I bet they wanted the mystery of hot guys to reel new players in.

Funny thing is that I left the account I posted the edits on (due to unrelated reasons) so I don’t want to be associated with the account but I’ll dm you my new editing account but I post them on Instagram & YouTube when I remember lol

But ultimately I have no hard feelings about this entire situation, they never contacted me with a cease and desist and I was in the wrong after all. I’m not seeking anything out of sharing my story but others that might’ve experienced something similar, and the last thing I want is someone to be scared away from their games.

Edit: please don’t let my experience sway you from downloading the game, I had no intention of that happening while sharing this. Overall I recommend the game if you love a good otome, minus my situation it’s one of the best and only otome games that’s made me cry!

Thank you for you time.

Edit: again please don’t let my experiences scare you from the game! I’ve ultimately moved on from this experience and just want to know if anyone else experienced something similar.

I’m actually quite impressed with how their coding deals with rule breakers and my respect for the game + game devs went up, give this game a try if you haven’t!!!!.
