YMMV / My Horse Prince

Go To

  • Audience-Alienating Premise: A Dating Sim about a human falling in love with a horse is on its own already a hard sell without getting to the horse's being depicted as an eldritch human-faced equine abomination.
  • Awesome Art: The animations for the minigames are hilarious.
  • Bile Fascination: Along with Dancing Bear, this is the good reason to actually look into the game would be to see how utterly batshit the story gets.
  • Dancing Bear: More than a few players willing to play the game to see how it'll be ending up.
  • Designated Hero: Some of the things Yuuma does and says make him look like a huge jerk, especially in the question minigames—his expectations for answers are sometimes completely unreasonable, and he can't seem to decide if he wants Umako to play hard-to-get or not.
    • There's also the fact that his method of winning races involves simply kicking the other horses until they can't run anymore.
  • Germans Love David Hasselhoff: The game is obscure in Japan (if not having a Japanese Wikipedia article is anything to go by), yet is covered by many news outlets in English.
  • Nightmare Fuel: Everything about Yuuma and Ryouma's character designs. The juxtaposition of a human head and a standard equine body creates a freakish Unintentional Uncanny Valley character, and the cutscenes where Yuuma is interacting with regular humans make it so much worse.
  • Squick: The "Horse With A Human Face" is the girl's perspective. To others, the horse is just an ordinary horse. This is bound to make some scenes obviously uncomfortable.
