Some dose of light drama and laid-back romance. No love triangles. No depressing scenes. No annoying misunderstandings.

Shows with romantic elements which weren't created by sadistic douchebag authors who for some reason kills off the love interest by the end of the story. May include titles that's ongoing airing or on hiatus but have finished source materials. Ambiguous/open endings don't count. Only the first season of every show is represented. Multiple endings/choices count as long as there exists at least one happy conclusion. Also may include ongoing romcoms because they will most definitely never end in tears. No L,G,B,T,Q,GS,TRAP,HEN,NTR,FJS,FEMBOI, only H. This list is from my personal point of view and thus strictly referential.

This stack is for Nisekoi-type anime, abstractly named after a (in)famous romantic comedy where the characters are forced to accept a arranged engagement and artificial relationship in general. Such shows are usually based on a very characteristic premise, where a guy and a girl, less often other combinations, are forced to be together due to a forced engagement or a fake relationship, but subsequently fall in love with each other for real (not necessarily at the same time). Additional drama is also possible where the characters are already in love with someone else and/or are forced to maintain that relationship due to circumstances.

Some of these shows problematically idealize organized relationships (usually because of the idea of ​​easily getting interesting pairing or fantasizing about the perfect bride with no extra effort), some deconstruct or add something that reveals the character's developed genuine romantic reciprocity. Some, on the contrary, even normalize it, but fortunately such shows are in the minority and even they try to somehow justify this in the eyes of people.

Separately, I want to note that not all of these shows contain this subplot or arc in the first or already released seasons. So keep that in mind when you see shows in the stack that you've never heard of in this context. Also, this stack doesn't include anime with forced engagement that don't include the center couple in it, or are clearly shown it in a judgmental way.

These anime have no time to lose and try to cram the most they can in the least amount of time possible, maybe forgetting one detail or two among the way. Blink and you miss it. Secondary effects might include: Feeling like you watched more chapters than you actually watched.

As with the slow paced stack, some of these are tagged as such in AniDB, some others are from my experience watching them.

I am only adding the first season/entry of each franchise, unless a particular entry is fast paced like Fairy Tail's final part

For people scared of speed here is the slow version https://myanimelist.net/stacks/33443

Shows with Harem tag on it, however it turns out it's not really 'Harem'.

It's just a goddamn clickbait.

Anime that you can watch without having to worry about paying too much attention. Mostly slice of life/episodic anime.

I obviously haven't watched every single 'non-complex' anime, and some entries are from what I've heard of from the anime, so if you think there's something that should be added here or something should be removed, message me.

It may look like a harem and smell like a harem, but it's not a true harem. Anime with harem elements that lack the qualifications of being full harem anime instead have harem subtext, the topic of this stack. This was partly inspired by the romantic subtext tag, but also the fact that there are many anime out there that may have harems in them, but aren't true harem series. This can often be because the protagonist simply chooses one girl early on and the rest of the 'harem' is left with unrequited love, or perhaps the protagonist has no feelings for any of the girls. Whatever the case may be, the story clearly does not treat enough of the girls as having a serious shot at the protagonist's heart for it to be a true harem series.

But what, you ask, makes something a harem series? Well, it's when at least three girls with importance to the story have a serious shot at winning over the protagonist. Harem subtext is when there may be several girls interested in the protagonist, but he doesn't return the majority of their feelings. Harem subtext can often edge into the love polygon/triangle theme, since while two girls may be interested in and have a serious shot at the protagonist, a third or more supporting characters may also hold feelings for him but they don't have a big enough role or shot at his heart for it to be a harem. Of course, girls simply existing around a protagonist does not automatically mean it's a harem series, even if it's a predominantly female cast.

Note that while some series may develop harem subtext later in their source material, if they do not have it in the first season then it does not qualify. It can qualify if the later material is adapted, though. Typically with these cases, a love triangle is already clear in the first season, but developments later in the source material turn it into a harem. Note also that some of these love triangles act like harems but with just two girls, where the protagonist is already in a quasi-relationship with both girls which they're aware of.

While this stack is focused mostly on harem anime and not reverse harem anime, I will include the latter if I feel it is warranted. I will be using the tag once per franchise, but do note that it can often fluctuate between entries, especially as characters are introduced and relationships develop. I will be using the first instance of harem subtext in a franchise, so if season 2 is the first instance of it then it will be included instead of season 1. Like the romantic subtext theme is with the romance genre, this stack is mutually exclusive with the harem theme, so if any of the entries here get updated with the harem tag, they will be removed from the stack. This also means that, as much as I hate to say it, I will not be including High School DxD Season 1. And yes, I will die on this hill.

Tired of the Slice of Life genre being filled to the brim with these boring ass moe girl shows that don't DARE to go above and beyond with their comedy? Here's a list "curated" (thrown together haphazardly) by me of some goofy ass stuff that will make you laugh if you have the same wack ass sense of humour that I do.

Will continuously update as I find more that fits the "genre". Note that this doesn't encompass all slapstick and/or situational comedy, just stuff that has characters with half a brain. In a funny way.
