Hello fellow people of MAL, I just finished watching this and I feel so empty. I love how this anime has some unconventional tropes, which made it really amazing. For context, I know that the theme of this anime and tropes are sort of unique, but what recommendations can you give? I have already watched like Oregairu and a lot of romance anime, what else are out there for me to explore and indulge into.

Thank you in advance kind people of earth!

RomCom with love polygon and losing heroine, don't skip the ending credits because they tell the after story.

Kuzu no Honkai is definitely not your average romance anime...https://myanimelist.net/anime/32949/Kuzu_no_Honkai?q=Kuzu%20&cat=anime

There's nothing very similar, but I recommend Renai Flops, an original anime, with one season and a closed ending, it's a very different romantic comedy.

Note: there is a lot of ecchi.

So what do you recommend?
Judging by the rating of your animes, you don't have a very difficult taste for comedy.

No, that is not true. 😅
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.

I hadn't noticed before, but you haven't watched Boku no Kokoro no Yabai Yatsu, so I recommend it too, since it's one of the best romances of recent years.

both have Anna's who are big eaters.

It's probably the best anime I've seen considering only romance. The characters are realistic and relatable and the progression also feels real alongside with amazing visuals and music.

Yeah, it's not. I just recommended to check it out if the OP hasn't. I'd say Insomniacs has some similarities to BokuYaba.

Yeah it is not a similar story still it got the same vibe to it a little serious yet funny at times and a drama driven show rather than comedy driven romance

@1000-MAT I actually forgot about this anime. I heard the author used this as an inspiration-ish?

I don’t know why I feel compelled to recommend KareKano. Probably because it’s my favorite romance and is also really funny?

Did you hear me?
