''Death Match Love Comedy'', also known as ''DMLC'', is a Main/VisualNovel distributed by Kemco and first released on mobile phones on 2013, and later got a [[UpdatedReRelease remaster]] on Steam by June 2020. Starting off as a seemingly classic RomanceGame, it quickly takes a different direction with a ridiculous but original concept bordering on BlackComedy.
