Hacker075 said: Of all the romance shows (and shows with romance as a secondary aspect of the show) that i've seen, the only one I have personally been so interested to the degree that I am with this show is 'A Silent Voice'. I would argue however that that is less about romance and more about learning to value yourself, in spite of your problems. Episode 1 - 4 of Season 1 I hated. A friend told me to watch it and I decided to but I hated Ichikawa. He was generic, edgy, cringe and overall uninteresting. The show has since shown that the two characters' perspective is so incredibly realistic and the way they explore their internal conflict and their attempt to be worthy of each other is done in the most satisfying way imaginable. I won't go into depth about the visuals, sound and voice acting all being top tier (we all know they are) but I just feel like the pure quality of this show in both direction and writing has created a story that feels so much bigger than it is and its unlike anything i've ever experienced in a show that is limited to the real world. Please let me know what you all think. I doubt many will agree that its the best to ever do it but I wanted to see if others felt the same way I do. I do agree honestly, season 1 was very good but in the beginning I kinda hated kyo, he was annoying and cringe af (he can be a bit cringe still ngl) but he’s development as a character has been phenomenal. Kyo’s development with his relationship with yamada has been also really good especially during season 2. The animation is stunning and the music is also really good Imo this is one of the best romance anime I’ve ever watched, it’s not my favourite but it’s definitely one of my favs. |
| For me, it has real potential. I still prefer Tsuki ga Kirei as a whole package since that made me feel a lot of emotions that I have not felt in other anime, and loved how well constructed the development of the relationship was even with some elements of drama and love polygons still there. But this anime has been improving so much since the first couple episodes and has been great and consistent since then. Every episode of season 2 has been so much fun and has had a ton of charm so I can't deny the potential to being the best is plausible. Regardless, it is one of my favorite romance anime of all time easily even now. Another romance-themed anime I did love as well was Insomniacs After School and last year, this and the first season of Dangers in my Heart were very close but the latter has the advantage due to having another season after and it being even better. Only thing that I am curious about (even with the manga too) is how the series continues on and concludes in the long run, and will it find the right time to do so before any fall off. Kaguya-sama had an extremely great few episodes that can be one of the best romance-focused arcs in anime in the end of season 3, but the manga portion after that till its conclusion is incredibly inconsistent so who knows. In that sense, Tsuki ga Kirei is a complete package too and has an extremely bittersweet, yet satisfying and cathartic ending and since it was an original anime, never overstayed its welcome. I would absolutely state that this is by far my favorite rom-com anime though. Don't think that's close. |
| Depends in which regard, if it's about overcoming inner conflict then maybe, although I feel it got drawn out for too long. |
*kappa* |
| Maybe not the best but definitely in the top 10 if not the top 5. Although this is not just a romance story, it's more about acknowledging yourself as you are and accepting that nobody is perfect even if they look like they are. |

| I wouldn’t consider this to be the best romance anime but it is definitely one of the best. |
| as someone said in here, its subjective. Me, personally, as much as i love this title, its one of my favs i wouldnt consider it the best romance of all time, certainly without a doubt it was the best romance of last year and arguably this year as well (although there are new titles that i think will be up therein the discussion). I just wonder on how much development, depth, storylines can the author still write when you have middles schoolers as the main characters. |
| Kaguya-Sama is my #1 but i think this is going to be my 2nd favorite atleast |
| No, it's the generic cutesy romcom with one dimensional characters. The characterization was mostly unrealistic. As a romance anime it hardly has much conflict. Although the inner monologues were decent to build some character, it's not something new. Besides the events and monologues were absolutely centered around the romance and the couple. I don't think this is very realistic that whatever a character does, has to be related to romance. Nevertheless, the direction was quite good. So overall the show is not bad but not something I'll put alongside my favourites. |

| There was this sense of enlightenment when I read the White Day chapter months ago and that was when I realized the magnitude of it all, I've very much been on the hype train since. Yes I do think this is the best ever romance. In terms of romance this shits all over Kaguya. All the other canon romances, I've watched or read most of them and though they are all great to varying degrees, none of them come near. |

| no, not at all, I dont see why I would find an edgy middle schooler who says "im messed up in the head", reading a "murder encyclopedia" out in the open, with the worst emo haircut, could create any other response besides awkwardness and embarrassment. youre so cool man!!! ugh. |

So overall the show is not bad but not something I'll put alongside my favourites. “One dimensional character which centered around romance”, and among your favourites the romance title is Teasing Master Tagaki-San, well, well, well, everyone entitled to their own opinion. Bar what everyone’s saying, whether it is best romance will be subject to everyone’s judgement. But one thing I am sure, this title’s impact will be alongside with Maison Ikkoku and Tsuki Ga Kirei, being the textbook of how to write and do non-action anime, from Character writing and development, storytelling, storyboard writing, OST to cinematography, this title will be referred again and again in foreseeable future as a gold standard. Ah! I forgot, that thing is still there in my favourites. No, Takagi-san is not my favourite romance, not even in my fav 5. It's there because it was my gateway anime. Also it has almost no character development and mostly runs on the so-called wholesome moments of the characters. Urusei Yatsura and Maison Ikkoku were the early non-shoujo romance comedy that handled both comedy and romance properly. Recent romcoms either prioritise comedy or romance and fail to do the other properly. So, following that trend BokuYaba did have some merit. Also the same can be said about Kaguya-sama. But it's not about romance comedy, when you're considering the whole romance genre you have to compete with well written dramas(e.g Toradora , Oregairu, Clannad) and especially Shoujos(e.g. Furuba, Nana). This is where I don't think BokuYaba is on the same bar. Shoujos are generally best at writing romance and reasonable characters. Although being an original, Kirei follows the same shoujo formula. |

| Haven't watched it but it isn't Kaguya better Kanojo mo Kanojo better Quintessential Quintuplets better |
| No lol. Spice and Wolf, Bloom into You, Toradora, The Ancient Magus' Bride, and quite a few others. Though it is very commendable. |
   |
| Peak romance, I wouldn't say it's *the* best I've seen but it's up there. Somehow the show just keeps getting better and better with each episode, it's been a delight to watch. |
| not reading all that, just reacting to the title. Not even close, there are romance animes which are 10x better |
