Looking for a REAL romance anime
Hi everyone! Like a lot of people , one of my favourite pass-time is watching animes , prepare some pop-corn before reading this because it's gonna be long xD
I watched many kinds of animes and now i became more interested in romance animes , i had enough of fantazy , sci-fi and things like that , i want to change a little , i'm almost 20 now , you know , when you grow up , you want something more realistic maybe or something like that , well , whatever , i started watching a lot of romance animes now and i became really demanding after watching a lot of them. Usually i search on the net and i find something interesting so i give it a try if it's good enough i keep watching it , otherwise , i stop watching it. On top of that , on the net i don't find something with the criterions i want , sometimes a guy on a forum ask for a slice of life romance anime and he gets something with action...WTF!!! Since i don't find something good on the net , i decided to try my luck on a forum , it's the first time i register on a forum just to look for an anime so i hope it won't be useless , and that's why i'm talking a lot here x) , usually i spend few hours on the net to find something worth watching so i try here , maybe it'll take less time :p After all this speech , sorry if it was too long , even if i wanted to say much more but i didn't because it's not the main purpose here , i'll tell you what kind of anime i'm looking for : As i said before i became really demanding concerning romance anime so let's go! -I'm looking for a slice of life anime , slice of life , slice of life , i repeat it three times because i'm sure that some people will give me something else -It must be in a good quality , HD if possible , i don't something from 2000 , very old and all -With good graphics , especially the characters , i'm sorry , i don't have the right vocabulary to explain it well but i think you can understand , like in sukitte iinayo , i didn't really liked the character graphics but i kept watching because the story was interesting -With a two sided story , i don't mine if it's a harem even if i don't prefer that , but at least we have a main couple , i mean not like in sekirei for example , the guy is with all of them , well something like koi to senkyou to chocolate -No fantasy , no sci-fi , no action , just something ordinary with drame, slice of life and romance , i don't need more ! well if there is a little i don't mind , like in clannad , with the second world , where there are only a girl and a robot , well i can make some exception , like in romeo x julliet , there are a war , but that wasn't a problem for me -I prefer something with real characters , i mean they look like they have 16 for example and not too young , like the guy in clannad or High school of the dead or Kaze no stigma , because the only thing that i didn't like in clannad was nagisa's looking , i mean when she is with tomoya , she looks like she is his daughter or his little sister , not his girlfriend...but i can make exception , like for sakurasou no pet na kanojo , i really liked this anime even if... -Characters with good looking , i mean at least a little handsome , you don't have to give an anime where the main guy looks badass , too handsome and all that , just not ugly is enough lol , because in some animes some couples don't fit well together -Finally the most important thing ! the kiss!! seriously when i watch an anime with a good story , good development between the characters and all that , and in the end there is nothing ! why?!!! how it can be a romance anime if there are no kiss? like myself yourself , i was really disgusted in the end , they married and live together and they don't even kiss? WTF! Lol , now i sound like a pervert , for me the kiss represents 50% of the anime if not more , why? because it shows the bond between the two characters and how they really love each other , if there are no kiss , it's as if there is something missing xD I think that's all the criterions i want , if i remember something else , i'll add it , when i say ''exception'' i don't mean i want that anime , i just say that you can give that ''exception'' if you can't find something interesting for me , i know i'm asking too much , sorry for that , but after watching many good animes you become more and more demanding , it's natural lol Consider it like a challenge , because convincing me with a good anime will be really hard , well , if you want to help me of course ^^ I lost all my hopes concerning searching on the net , so i try my last chance on forums , hoping that i'll find what i expect , sorry , i wrote a diary , but i have no choice , finding a romance anime is easy , but finding an interesting one as i like became hard these days... Don't give me an anime from my list of course , look under and you'll see my anime list , i prefer an anime with few episodes , 13 or 26 not more , because usually the story become boring...but maybe it's not really true , who knows... I just want to apologize if there are some mistakes , especially of vocabulary , i don't speak english fluently ahah! , so if you don't understand something , tell me and i'll try to make it more explicit :) I'm counting on you !!! Give me some hope! :p Anime list : -Dragon Ball Z -Bleach -High school of the dead -Katekyo Hitman Reborn -Clannad -Yu-Gi-OH -FMA Brotherhood -5 Cm per second -Guilty Crown -Nisemonogatari -HighschoolDxD -Seikon No Qwaser -Sekirei -Infinite stratos -School Days -Kaicho wa maid sama -rumbling hearts -hoshizora e kakaru hashi -green green -true tears -zero no tsukaima -rosario+vampire -seitokai yakuindomo -B geta H kei -shakugan no shana -princess lover -they are my noble master -special a -itazura na kiss -shuffle -omamori himari -yourself-myself -sora no otoshimono -hatsukoi limited -Mashiro-Iro Symphony -akane-iro ni somaru saka -mayo chiki -MM! -Toradora -Ef-a tale of memories -amagamiSS -Kimikiss pure rouge -angel beats -koi to senkyou to chocolate -saint-seiya''the lost canvas'' -code breaker -freezing -Kaze no stigma -Zetsuen no tempest -Btooom! -Maji de watashi ni koishinasai -sukitte iinayo -sakurasou no pet na kanojo -Hagure yuusha no esutetika -Yoake mae yori ruriiro na -campione! -romeo x julliet |

okay try these
http://myanimelist.net/anime/14227/T...o_Kaibutsu-kun ano natsu de matteru-has a little scifi but no too much http://myanimelist.net/anime/11433/Ano_Natsu_de_Matteru oreshura- one of my favorites From winter season. second half is better imo http://myanimelist.net/anime/14749/O...Shuraba_Sugiru |
I'll toss in Kamisama Hajimemashita and Nodame Cantabile. Another show you might try is Saiunkoku Monogatari, though you might find Shurrei's focus on her career a bit frustrating if you're in it only for the romance. Personally I find her one of the most admirable heroines in anime.
Seconding REC. |
Hmm.. I'd suggest some of the old classics:
Maison Ikkoku is probably the best choice for you. Great ending too. Kimagure Orange Road Touch If kissing is that important then The World God Only Knows is probably a good choice. Mirai Nikki has the romance and kissing, but it's pretty heavy on the supernatural stuff too. Action/Horror is the genre. Because of Japanese sensibilities, kissing is pretty hard to find. Ones I think you might like despite that absence: Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun Kotoura-san Kimi Ni Todoke Ano Hana Whisper of the Heart Cross Game Mysterious Girlfriend X |
I'll try to focus on recent series since animation seems important to you:
Honey and Clover while this is more about the journey than the actual romantic relationships I still consider this the gold standard of slice of life romantic series. My all time favorite anime. I'll second Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun and Kimi Ni Todoke, although most of the time where they actually spend as a couple comes after the anime finishes in the manga. If this is the genre you like (it's also my favorite genre) I think you'll find more series you like with manga instead of anime, if you enjoy manga as well I'd recommend highly Horimiya, Bonnouji and 14-sai no Koi |
I'm just too lazy to type.why don't you try this anime, it's kind of old but its good

I still consider Boys Be to be one of the best purely romance-focused anime that I've seen. It's a series of romance arcs, each with a definite couple. There is also definite character progression, as most of the characters are linked to eachother. There are no gimmicks in the show, and it's more realistic and romance-focused than any other show that I can think of (as opposed to the series where there is a romantic interest established, then they spend the entire series avoiding it).
Now, it's old by your standards, being from 2000, but I was fairly impressed by the image quality when I watched it. |
