Hm, I'm playing with all 3 girls and their skin tone is just like on the big image of Manaka on the left with very slight variation.
Maybe your Manaka is tanned? If I remember correctly there was a way to get the girls tanned by visiting the indoor pool in LP+

If the engine of this game is the same as LP+, they will get tanned ocasiaonally, especially if you take them to the beach. Don't worry though, after some time they come back to normal, if you want to speed up the process play skip mode (I'm assuming that everything is like LP+).

Girls only get tanned if you take them to the beach during summer. I actually like the darker skin tone, maybe 'cause they look more like the girls in my country.

I think it fit Rinko's character best to start at a paler shade before she eventually tans in the summer since she is nocturnal and all and they kinda looked more detailed before in LP/LP+ (the head shape,chin,nose,eye design)

I paid some more attention to this and I think this is some kind of color conversion thing between the systems:
In-game the (default) girls all have that nice bright (porcelaine like) skin tone.
Take a photo and the in-game photo browser displays the same color.
Save the photo to the SD card and watch it in the 3DS photo browser - the colors look ok, maybe a little bit on the rosy side but only barely noticeable.
Export those photos to your PC and watch them there - oh boy, the colors are a mess and really pinkish and orange.
You can edit this by simply reducing the saturation in a program like Irfanview, but that means quality loss to an already quite heavily compressed JPG image ...
Don't know if this could be considered a bug, the pictures (and most like all 3DS games) just compensate for the 3DS display that does not seem to display saturation very good by over-saturating the colors. But it's an inconvenience for sure.

yes i feel somehow they decided to shape down and make the facial features more mature and proportional(?) and saturate the colors so the girls would pop out of the 3DS screen more cause probably they wouldn't be so dimensional if they were so bleached out(?)...

Japan is a long vertical. Women of northern white skin is like a Russian. Southern rural women is of brown skin. When the average is yellow(orange). Japanese women are longing to white skin. Japanese men likes brown skin, white skin. me too. XD

hahahaa..lol i didn't think anyone else would agree with meXD if we started a petition I feel it might just be the two of us XDXD
you can hardly notice her cheeks blushing now or see any shading to bring out some contrast and depth anymore cause of all that spread flat color..i know the three girls are suppose to be different skintones from one another but they could have kept the basic color pale and then play with the shading to give it a more dimensional look which could be the orange for Rinko but then do the cheeks in pink(like in the previous games)..now it's orange/orange/more orange you can hardly tell it looks flat..

yeah i dont think a petition would work haha but i totally agree with you. I was taking a look at your tumblr and those images make me even more sad...the arcade version is way better than the new love plus. I think they should have kept the basic pale color they used at first, i didnt have any complaints about the skin color on the first love plus. Why did they change it i wonder...and why are we the only ones frustrated about it ;_;

hahaha..yeah it's not so much that it's that dramatically different but it's more like..'give us back the girl we fell in love with'!!XDXD.. in the game version the girls were kinda pixely but in a very cute way cause they looked more like vintage arcade games from the 80's, then they really perfected the girls for the loveplus arcade, i think they kept all their best features from the game yet updated the design with such smoother results..so i was waiting for something along those lines and in the promos it looked kinda like that for a while but then they went in such a different direction.

I don't see that orange skin on any of the girls from my 3ds. Did you turn off that light conservation mode under brightness? I have it at level 3 brightness with conserve mode off. They look pretty much like those arcade shots.

After playing my Manaka and Nene save files they are cuter and i can see why some people are not bothered, maybe it's just the Rinko thing since she is suppose to be nocturnal and less-orangey/peachy than the other girls, i do have my 3DS set to the lowest light possible but the general problem comes out once you export some of the game shots you've taken to a computer then the problem just magnifies...like they look a bit too "simplified" now and not as cute or realistic as before:
