I'm looking for some romance shows with no harems, as less drama as possible, no love triangles or other crap like that, no mecha and preferably something which isn't set in high-school cause most of the romance anime are set in high-school, unfortunately.

Something that's not on my list please. Thanks.

I'm interested in this too.
There are some that I haven't watched and not sure how good they are... I'm thinking about watching them, maybe.
Natsuyuki Randezvous - but there's some drama, I think.
Nana-not set in high-school but a lot of drama in it, that's why I can't make myself watch it xD
Golden Time - it's very popular and people say it's very good. I think it's not set in high school, but I'm not sure!
Spice and Wolf
Nodame Cantabile


There's also Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi and Junjou Romantica - if you don't mind yaoi- they are really good! And, when it comes to yaoi, I would also recommend Love Stage!

Hope this helped you!


I'm looking forward to other answers too! xD

From what i've read, Natuyuki Randevous is a love triangle, so i won't watch it.

I also read that there are some love triangles in Golden Time, so, again, it's a no.

Higashi No Eden is the only one that looks decent. But thanks to all of you anyway.

Another vote for Nodame Cantabile

Ristorante Paradiso - young Japanese woman works in a restaurant in Italy where all the staff are older men with glasses

Saiunkoku Monogatari - another reverse harem set in a fantasy Asian land that looks like T'ang China (600-900 CE)

Kuragehime - young woman who loves jellyfish lives with four other female otaku; their lives are disrupted by the arrival of a flamboyant guest

Oh! Edo Rocket - strange young woman asks fireworks maker to build her a rocket to the moon; set in 1843-44 Edo

I dropped Nodame Cantabile because anime focused on music is not for me plus the two main lovers are annoying.

And you misunderstood my post. I said NO reverse harem. I fucking hate those more than anything.

But thanks, i guess...

characters start of in high school but the show goes further into their lives so there's barely any showing of the "high-school life":

Princess Tutu is a brilliant mahou shoujo anime focused mostly but not only on romance. It has a lot of GOOD drama and you'll be glad you watched it I assure you.
