“Momoiro Closet” is a mature visual novel with multiple routes, which tells the story of Kagamihara Alice, a student council president and the daughter of a member of the National Diet. However, she has a hidden secret – she’s actually a hardcore otaku! By chance, she meets Hashima Reiji at a shop in Akihabara, and the two begin to grow closer – sharing their hobbies, and eventually their fetishes with one another.
The title features artwork and character design from veteran artist INO, and a story by Yuhi Nanao. The in-universe TV show “Frill & Lace” showcases character design from Akio Watanabe, well known for the Grisaia franchise as well as the Monogatari series. The game’s theme song, “Voila! Magic Closet” is sung by Haruko Momoi.
“Momoiro Closet” was localized in English by Frontwing’s experienced in-house translation team, the members of which are proficient Japanese to English translators who possess JLPT N1 certification or equivalent. It also features a brand-new system allowing simultaneous display of English and Japanese text during gameplay, as well as language switching at the press of a button.
