Karakai Jouzu no Takagi-san 3

MBS's late night anime programming block which currently airs on Saturdays from 1:53-2:53.

This stack also includes Super Animeism TURBO (formerly Super Animeism), which currently airs on Fridays from 0:26-0:56.

Romance Anime that set the bar for what a romance anime should be.
(Based on popularity, success and ratings)

There are many anime which haven't started too well, but it got a sequel which became much (or a little) better than the first season.

It's possible that you dont want to watch the sequel because you didnt enjoy the first one, but you may make a big mistake.

Let's see which sequel should get at least one more chance.

I want to list these anime because Radiant is a good example for this. The first season was alright, I hesitated to watch the second one, but it got so good that I binged it.
So don't make the same mistake as me, don't hesitate, give them a chance!

I will list only those sequels which are better at least with 0.5 score than the first series. Score was checked in May, 2022.

If you know more, let me know it!

Forehead trilogy from Yamamoto Souichirou sensei.

Anime with teasing in relationships

(Not finished, as I still have stuff to watch)

Highly rated animes HiDive, one entry per series.

This batch of titles deal with junior high or high school romantic dramatic comedies. Most of these involve a central couple and sometimes may have other supporting players in romances of their own. Many of these involve unconventional protagonists with social anxieties or personality quirks and have interesting character development cycles.

Anime for when you just want to relax or have a laugh.

Big dose of laid-back Romance animes with Wholesome romance, and without any Love-triangle, Missunderstanding, and rival girl. (If there is any rival they clear up fast.)

Occasional teasing shows included!

Its all the sugary-fluffy love stories you need.

***One exception under the "the rivals clear up fast" is [Kimi Ni Todoke]. There the first season second half is full-on rivalry, but its worth the watch because the love earned in the end***

Romcoms that you will find relaxing(but sometime cry over because your fav girl didn't win)

A couple RomCom anime that are worth your time.

My scoring is based on the rate the anime entertained me. These anime mostly put me on a roller-coaster while being invested in the characters and events.
The ones I really like get to be on this list.

after watching this anime and seeing the adorable couple's behavior, you want to have a girlfriend/wife
