I actively avoid both the manga and the anime – especially the anime, which are terrible, IMO – in favor of playing the games.
And there is a Musume game that XSEED refuses to localize for a variety of reasons, the biggest being that the tone of the game, which is non-canon anyway, is completely out of step with the other titles in the series that they have already released. Fans keep bugging them about it (... because people are pretty hardcore about seeing Yoshiki in a wedding dress, I guess), but they put their foot down on it.
Book of Shadows is amazing, especially the 'what if' chapters, so I hope you get a chance to experience it. And I am ... ambivalent about Blood Drive thus far, but there is a lot to like about the game, too.
Anyway! Any time you want to discuss the series, please feel free. I have done a couple of short 'fics for it, but nothing too big as of yet.
