Tokimeki Memorial/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Acting for Two/Hey, It's That Voice!: Yukinojou is played by Yuji Ueda who also voices Yoshio, the main character's best friend, from the first game.
    • This is hilariously parodied in the live action drama recording at the Fantastic Christmas event in which Naoto asks if he can enter Rei's Christmas party to which Yukinojou replies that he can. Naoto then comments that he sounds remarkably like Yoshio.
  • Cash Cow Franchise: Oh boy. This series has so much merchandise, it even has several official books referencing the existing merchandise !!
  • Fan Translation: The SNES version of the first game is sadly notable for having lots of attempts at creating a translation patch; all of them invariably went to stall for a reason or another.
  • No Export for You: This game series is one of the most famous victims of this, for obvious reasons.
  • Portmanteau Series Nickname: "TokiMemo"
  • Remade for the Export: In 2007, Konami tested the waters in America by creating Brooktown High, an American High School version à la Sims of Tokimeki Memorial. But what they failed to notice, is that what made the success of Tokimeki Memorial is its beautiful anime graphics, and its humor and light-hearted atmosphere; no wonder a game with fugly 3D designs, insipid characters and crappy dialogue like Brooktown High, already not helped by its concept and by virtually non-existent publicity, bombed royally.
