Customized Girlfriend Review

This seems much lower budget than most, but it punches above its weight. It only has two admirers, compared to the typical 5-6, but they get more screen time and the romance arcs are fine.

Release Date: April 27, 2024

One of the admirers, Xiaoxi, is a prototype robot that requires charging and is learning about the world. The other, Feifei, is a human idol who is not happy with her employer. These two admirers nicely mirror each other in terms of subservience: the robot is basically a slave and you become a personal assistant to the idol. But since both characters have arcs, these roles change.

It will take about 90 minutes to get to the ending, and another 2 hours to unlock all side content. This is shorter than average, but it does not seem as brief because it is spread across only the two admirers. Branching paths are fairly typical, with early deaths, bittersweet endings, and two decently complete romances. The story overall is solid and has funny moments.

Video quality is quite good although sometimes the skip ability fails. Audio is a combo of live-recorded and ADR, so inconsistent. Translation is tolerable. The two actresses do a solid job but side chars are rarely convincing. Not the best in the genre, but more should explore having fewer admirers.
