For me it’s a tie between Say I Love You and Insomniacs After School. I’ve rated other romances higher, but because of different aspects.

    What anime has the best romance?

    Thank you for phrasing it this way, leaving room for anime that do not have romance among its genres.

    For me, it’s Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury . I love the relationship between Suletta and Miorine so much.

    Honourable mention goes to 86 for Lena x Shin.

    I guess I like seeing couples overcome shared trauma.

      Lena x Shin hits even harder because they never see each other until the very final episode. Witch from Mercury is on my watchlist so I’ll have to give it a go.

        Make sure to start with the prologue / episode 0.

    I absolutely love Boku no kokoro yabai yatsu. Currently this has to be my favorite romcom. It starts weird but it gets so sweet by the end of season 1 you’re going to get diabetes.

    Another great show I can recommend is Golden Time. It’s like Toradora but with older cast. I have to admit I enjoyed it way more than Toradora. Maybe because it was exactly my type of humor or because some situations were very realistic. Whole show is not like typical rom-com. It feels like it could happen for real.

    Insomniacs After School is an unique pick. I also enjoyed it a lot. But for me it is Toradora! or The Danger in my Heart. Both for different reasons. And an unique one for me would be Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions.

    Your name (Kimi no Na wa). I’ve watched it three times now and every time I feel like a 12yo kid again. Waking up to life and falling through the depths of all possible emotions.

    I’d say Horimiya and Wotakoi. The romance in both stories feels like it evolves organically and between realistic characters.

    I really liked oregairu, clannad and toradora for the romance genre. Oh and fruits basket too.

      I’m two episodes from the end right now, and once it got past the slow start this show was really excellent!
