Welcome to "From Madness with Love", a dating sim with guys you will never be on the same page with!
Spend a year of school life with four guys and make choices to build up your relationship with the guy you like! As you interact with them more and more, you will face challenges, and you'll uncover their secrets...! Will you be able to have a happy ending with the guy you love?

Summary

You are the main character, a simple high school sophomore. However, last year your high school was bombed by terrorists, so you were transferred to the closest school to your home—a private school for rich kids.

Characters

Saeki Yuusuke
A bright, mischievous, good-looking, flirtatious blond guy in the same class as you. Used to attend the same school as you. Cheerful, friendly and frank with everyone. His hobbies are sports and video games. He speaks in incomprehensible gibberish.

Arakawa Shuuji
A quiet and gentle teacher who rarely opens his eyes fully. The sexy school nurse of the Academy. Might secretly have a meaner, darker side...? His hobbies are music and muscle training. He always has a seahorse tangled up in his hair.

Tamura Marshmallow
The mysterious cute boy. His hobbies are eating and sleeping. He avoids talking to others as much as possible, and if you encounter him, he will fling insults at you and curse you out. He is well versed in the occult.

Aorta
A senior student and the student council president of the Academy. Cool and dignified. His trademarks are his pale skin and indecipherable foreign language. He has excellent grades and handles administrative tasks with ease, but also has a clumsy side. Currently studying Japanese culture, which he is very interested in.

Content Warning
