Oops I forgot to finish my post on this:
Going to make it a quick post because there's little interest? OTL By the way it's kind of sad but the blogs I read aren't being updated much, is everyone really busy with uni? :( Also ceebs translating the bit underneath that picture. And I really hate how the english title's acronym becomes "kbtbb" - it just looks really weird? Probably because there are too many b's in there.
Okay so first I'll say I played the routes quite some time ago and as usual I kind of forget minor details (just like if you ask me about books or movies) so this is going to be quite a brief overall summary. Also I can't find the English character summaries on the site? So I'll just post the japanese ones (btw I'll say names in last name, first name order):
The character whose route came out first. I also think of him as the "main" character for this game (even though the main character is whichever person's route you choose) since he was the main person featured in the promo. Profile says Ichinomiya Eisuke, who is the cold ore-sama. 29 years old, 180 cm. Text on the right hand side says "ore no onna ni suru. Omae ni kyohiken wa nai." Meaning "become my girlfriend, you have no right of veto (you have no say against it)."
Soooo I was kind of looking forward to his route since he was the one in the promo and the reaction all over tumblr is you either like him or you really hate him. Remember how I said the hotel where MC works is owned by the Ichinomiya group? Well this guy is the owner and "boss" of the hotel so he's a multimillionaire and is really snobby and all that. If you choose to be bought by him, he gives you a pager and when it buzzes, the MC has to be at the penthouse (51st floor of the hotel) where all other characters hang within 5 minutes :/
Yeah he's demanding and you feel bad for MC for a bit because she always has to leave abruptly when with friends, eating lunch, etc to meet this 5 minute requirement. Since he keeps her on such a short leash the people who were displeased with his route is because they don't get how MC can come to like him under these circumstances. I still find his route interesting though.
For his route, he obviously keeps MC under his "watch" (not literally though) so that she doesn't tell anyone about the illegal auctions which he uses as a means to find information to find his long lost sister (don't ask, I know it sounds weird). Also since he paid 20 million for her it's not like she's just going to walk free. He eventually finds a use for her which is that she has to act as his girlfriend so that some Italian mafia boss' daughter who's obsessed with him will leave him alone. Yep.
Next is Oh Soryu which everybody went crazy for on tumblr and I was like "huh why?" Back when I started playing, his route wasn't out yet (only Eisuke's was) so everyone was eagerly waiting for this guy's which came out after Eisuke's. Profile says "cool mafia", 28 years, 183cm. Bit on the side says "ore ga kowakunai nante, hen na onna." Translates to "you're not scared of me? You're a weird woman."
So his name is really weird because it's not actually Japanese. His name is just a Japanese reading of the chinese which means "dragon king" since he's the boss of this Hong Kong mafia group called "ice dragons" (sorry but I was like ehhh the name could be better). Even the last name Oh seems weird since normal romanisation would have it as "Ou" but I guess that would confuse people on how to pronounce it if they didn't know Japanese.
Anyway his route is actually quite good and I see why everyone was anticipating it! Since he's in the mafia, he's always pulling out his gun on his friends when they piss him off which are all these guys I'm introducing to you now. Though he doesn't actually hurt them and he tells MC not to run away and tell people about the auction or he'll "deal with her" and he's talking about using his gun. Even though he says that, he later says he'd never pull a gun on a girl.
So he starts off being really scary but MC can tell he's really kind at heart and even though he's in the mafia he never gets innocent people involved, and only goes after the bad guys. I guess it's like a twisted take on robin hood? He tells MC she needs to pay off the 20 million debt she owns him (from when she was bought from the auction) either in money or in services.
In the end, Mei Ling, the daughter of a different mafia group from Hong Kong comes out to Japan because her father is making her look for a husband and Soryu is tasked with looking after her. Unfortunately she's being targeted and so MC is forced to act as her double since they look alike and basically the situation gets dangerous but no matter what, Soryu protects her until the end and that's a quick summary of his story.

Umm how is this guy 35?? Normally I never have any interest in the oldest guys of each game and I can just tell who that is without ever seeing their age but I didn't know this guy was the oldest?? I'm sorry but I laugh inwardly every time I see his name since he's almost always called by his last name "Baba" by everyone which makes me think of this old scary granny from spirited away since her name is Yubaba which is quite similar:
Anyway profile says "woman loving thief", 35 years old, 177 cm. Right hand side says "ore mitai na otoko, suki ni naranai hou ga ii" which means "you shouldn't like someone like me." Typical in every one of voltage's game, there has to be some guy who's popular with the ladies or fond of playing around with them and that would be Baba for this game. REALLY similar to the game Love Letter from Thief X, he steals artworks from bad guys who stole them or got them through dirty means and returns them to where they belong or should go instead.
Baba's route is the third one to come out and he's generally always cracking jokes/hitting on MC so she can't take him seriously since he's like that with everyone and that leads to MC always thinking "what's the real Baba like?" Actually I swear the MC does the whole "so what is the real -insert name of guy's route you're playing- like?" every route but it's probably because a key sentence in the promo video was "I want to get to know the real you" or something.
Anyway his route was better than I expected! Honestly didn't think I'd like it as much as I did since usually I really dislike the flirty characters. Also this is said no matter whose route you play but it turns out Eisuke first started holding the auctions because Baba asked him to as a means of getting rid of the stolen art. In his route, MC is told she will be set free as long as she accompanies and helps him out during his theft missions which is hard for her since she sees it as doing something wrong but she has no choice since he bought her. The guys force her to be an accomplice to these crimes as a means of making sure she won't tell anybody about the auctions. Anyway unfortunately when she's almost about to finish one of the missions she gets caught and I'll let you guess who comes to save her...
