I thought “yumejoshi” applied to any fan who liked to self/OC-ship. So if there was a game with a defined MC, a fan who liked to imagine themselves instead of MC with one of the LIs would be a yumejoshi. Please let me know if I’m wrong! I don’t have an understanding of Japanese fandom the way a lot of otome lovers do (wonder if they gained it through being bilingual?) and I’d like to learn.
I may or may not have poked my head into English-speaking yumejoshi communities and I think they use the one I said. Sorry if I came off like I was demanding something, was just curious!
Our Life is a great self-insertion game.

I’m not really an expert for otome terminology myself, thats just based on my own interpretation of the term ^^;
