| I think the first part is “romantic subtext” the second part is a “romance” so it should have both. |
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.  |
| Romantic subtext should just be merged with romance, having them separated is pointless to begin with. |
ejleon said: I think the first part is “romantic subtext” the second part is a “romance” so it should have both. but then using this logic every romance anime could be romantic subtext too, since all of them would count as romantic subtext until a confession scene... if we go by the mal definition of romantic subtext then an anime can't be both romance and romantic subtext, giji harem just has wrong tags |

| I'm gonna be that guy...... This is the best explanation I found- "Romantic just depends on the person and what they define as romantic. What does subtext mean? Text is the words and gestures that we see in the script or hear on screen. Subtext is the thoughts and feelings both known and unknown, hidden by behavior, underneath the words and actions." |
