Best Romance Anime

I have an unhealthy obsession with romance anime. As I continue on my journey to discovering more great romance animes, I have compiled a list of my favorite ones so far. Feel free to recommend some that are not on this list!!! All of these are worth giving a shot. *Not in a specific order!*
1 Snow White with the Red Hair

Snow White with the Red Hair

It's been a while since I've watched it, but it is really heart warming and the romance is well developed.

2 Blue Spring Ride

Blue Spring Ride

FANTASTIC!!! Loved this anime to death, because the characters are so perfect for each other and their romance is great. But, the ending wasn't complete nor satisfying for me. I read and finished the manga where I left off in the anime, and I feel so much better and fulfilled. 

3 Hotarubi no Mori e

Hotarubi no Mori e

I actually cried. This is such a bittersweet and beautiful story. Even though it is short, it packs an amazing story along with great romance. 

4 Maid-sama!

Maid-sama!

A great romance anime for beginners. Not only is it funny as hell, but the romance and story is great. 

5 Kamisama Kiss

Kamisama Kiss

Words cannot describe the pure love for this anime I have. Not only is it a unique and easy to follow story, the romance, fantasy, and comedy balance out perfectly!

Plus, Tomoe is rly hot. 

6 Kimi ni Todoke - From Me To You

Kimi ni Todoke - From Me To You

A cute and pure story that made me cry endless times. I didn't cry out of sadness, because this anime is far from sad. It is a beautiful and happy story about a girl with the purest heart, who is misunderstood and only wants to be friends with everyone. The two main character's love is so pure and refreshing. I highly reccomend this!!

7 My Love Story!!

My Love Story!!

This actually made me cry from laughing so hard. The romance is sweet, and the main character's heart is pure gold. This anime is cute, hilarious, and the romance is too cute!!

8 Ouran High School Host Club

Ouran High School Host Club

Being the very first romance anime I've ever watched, this one is very high in my list of favorites! The comedy is great, and I love how well developed and unforgettable each character is. Give this anime a shot if you havent already!!

9 Say "I love you."

Say "I love you."

This the second romance anime I've ever watched. It's cute, heart warming, and gives me an ache in my heart due to the lack of this romance in my life, *Sigh*... the life of being single.

10 Wolf Girl and Black Prince

Wolf Girl and Black Prince

Not gonna lie, the guy is SO hot. I just love the story, and I never wanted it to end. This anime might have a fairly low rating, but I honestly loved the feeling of sitting back and watching as the drama unfolded. 

11 Kiss Him, Not Me

Kiss Him, Not Me

SO FUNNY OMG!!!! As I am writing this, the anime is not complete.. but I found this very enjoyable. This is the kind of anime that has romance, but the romance isn't the best part about this anime. The highlight of this anime, for me, is the comedy. PLEASE watch this if you want to laugh your ass off.

12 My Little Monster

My Little Monster

Really cute. The girl sometimes gave me a headache and at times, and I felt the romance was a little off... but it finished really nicely :)

13 Toradora!

Toradora!

Not one of my very favorites, but it is very interesting and romantic in some sense. I tried watching it at first but couldn't finish, but I gave it another shot due to so many people liking it. I had to see what the appeal was... and I ended up really enjoying Toradora.

14 Inu x Boku Secret Service

Inu x Boku Secret Service

LOVED!!! It was super cute and AHHH the guy is SOO hot.

15 Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?

Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?

THIS MADE MY LIL HEART BEAT SO FAST FROM IT BEING SO DAMN BAD ASS. Now.. this doesn't have any satisfying romance... but it was still SUPER cool. 

16 ItaKiss

ItaKiss

I'll admit,... this isn't necessarily one of my favorite animes. The main character can be a LIL (Okay, A LOT) annoying.. and the guy isn't rly eye candy (Ik that sounds super weird but I want to fall in love with the guy, too!!).. But this anime did something so satisfying. And that was the passage of time. Seriously... we get highschool, college, and major babymaking all in one. 

17 Love Stage!!

Love Stage!!

So damn cute. This is my very first BL anime, and I can say I really enjoyed it. So adorable and just AHHH.. and the characters were very likeable. If you're not interested in BL, don't watch. I wasn't interested either, until I watched it. Have an open mind!!!

18 Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun

Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun

SO. FUNNY!!! I know that there was romance and all... but that wasn't even the best part about this anime!! Of course, there's romance.. and the romance was great! But, the highlight of this anime, for me, was the likeable characters and COMEDY. Such a great anime.

19 Rainbow Days

Rainbow Days

Such a cute romance and I CRIED FROM LAUGHING SO HARD. It's a very short and sweet anime, and is a shoujo that is centered around boys. This didn't affect me at all... because the main characters are so likeable, relatable, funny, and pretty cute... This is a cute and easy anime that I finished in one sitting btw

20 Yuri!!! on Ice

Yuri!!! on Ice

HOLYYY SHITTTT. WOW. This is my very first anime that isn't necessarily considered a romance... but god DAMN the animation, music, story, characters, and sprinkle of romance just gave me goosebumps and made my heart tingle. LOVED THIS ANIME

21 Orange

Orange

I FINISHED THIS ALL IN ONE SITTING... NOT LYING. Okay, so I know this anime has some pretty shitty reviews... but don't let that stop you from watching just ONE episode. I swear, you'll get HOOKED. It finished nicely for me, and had such a great/interesting story. The romance SHOOK me, too. 

22 Hiyokoi

Hiyokoi

*ONLY ONE EPISODE* 

Okay, so this is practically an OVA. But!! The story really perked my interest, so I read the manga and really enjoyed it!

23 Sankarea

Sankarea

Okay, so this anime has an intersting plot.. But I still enjoyed it A LOT!! I watched the english dub on funimation, and it was pretty good!!! It has a good mix of comedy and romance, too! Plus... Chihiro is really cute.

24 The World is Still Beautiful

The World is Still Beautiful

HOLYYYYY SHITTT. 

Ok, so I've been putting this anime off for a while. But, one faithful day, I decided 'Eh, why not?'. BEST DECISION EVER. I started this anime at 10 pm and finished the ENTIRE ANIME IN ONE SITTING until 6 am. After I slept in until 12, I watched the WHOLE FUCKING ANIME AGAIN. It's been barely a few hours since my second time watching it, and I'm already going to go watch it a third time TBH hahaha.

UPDATE: IVE WATCHED IT 5 TIMES NOW??? SEND HELP

25 Skip Beat!

Skip Beat!

I'll admit, I had no intention of watching this anime AT ALL. 

But, I made the decision to watch it, AND IT WAS SO GOOD OMGG. The progression in character the MC has is fantastic. 

BUT

The amount of romance isn't necessarily an A+, but the comedy and plot overall makes up for it. I am planning to read the manga, and Im sure the romance will progress! ^.^

26 Yona of the Dawn

Yona of the Dawn

SOO GOOD AHHH.

I finished this in 2 days, and everything was great!!

The hotties (I mean... characters), story, music, art, and (of course) ROMANCE!

I really enjoyed this anime.... I just wished they finished the story, ya know? They didn't necessarily reach their goal, so I really wished they animated everything.........but BEGGARS CANT BE CHOOSERS!!!

I enjoyed this!!!

27 Amnesia

Amnesia

I'll admit... this will seem VERY confusing for those who have not played the game before watching the anime. I bought the game on my iPhone and finished it entirely. I like otome games (Because of ROMANCE ^.^).. and Amnesia was as good as Mystic Messenger---In my opinion! 

The romance in the game is top-notch, and I finished the anime in a day. I'm impressed they were abe to condense a good portion of the game into the anime. 

The anime is different compared to the original story.. but I HIGHLY reccomend buying the game before watching

The music is SO GOOD ^0^
