During a panel at Anime Expo in Los Angeles, that DualShockers attended, Aksys Games made a large batch of announcements about its Otome games line-up by Idea Factory.

For those unfamiliar, Otome games are titles (primarily visual novels and the Japanese variety of adventure games) dedicated primarily to the female audience.

First of all, Collar X Malice has been confirmed for a July release for PS Vita.

Also by Idea Factory, Bad Apple Wars for PS Vita will come on September 29th. It will have a limited edition with a cloth poster an art book and "something special."

Code: Realize - Future Blessings for PS Vita will come in 2018, but the real news is Code: Realize - Bouquet of Rainbows, also coming in 2018 for PS4.  It's a collection that will include both Code: Realize - Guardian of Rebirth and Code: Realize - Future Blessings.

The localization of 7'sCarlet has also been announced. It will come in 2018 exclusively for PS Vita.

Slated for 2018 are also the localizations for PS vita of Psychedelica of the Black Butterfly and Psychedelica of the Ashen Hawk.

Both games are considered part of the same series, but they're quite different.  Psychedelica of the Black Butterfly is set in a mansion where a girl needs to find a way to escape alongside other characters that have been trapped as well.

Psychedelica of the Ashen Hawk is about a lady who has an affliction causing her to be branded as a witch, and forcing her to dress up as a boy to avoid prosecution.
