Yes nana has drama, its really deep though i recommend it. Im sure if you watched a couple romances with more drama youd start liking them.


Well here is out of the box suggestion that no1 has recommended: How about fairy tail? Its a
shounen/comedy, but it has its part of romance moments as well. They are usually really funny, but there is some deepness to them sometimes, and there is multiple couples on the show.

Funniest couple there imo is gray x juvia (you can search youtube for clips), but there is really many couples among the main characters. The downside is that its really long show and dosent focus on romance, but many people i know who dont watch shounen/action/psychological, but instead watch romance/comedy like this show alot.

Oh and i went search clips for laughs, heres really funny one

You will probably like:

Inu x Boku SS
Bakuman (doesn't focus much on romance but has some of the most romantic scenes i've seen)
Also Acchi Kocchi is one of my favorite animes, though it is true that it doesnt have much romance, you should probably watch it when you want more cuteness and comedy than romance.

And you should really try the Manga Horimiya, best romance with no drama and amazing characters, really good art aswell.
There never was and never will be another Lelouch vi Britannia.

Nana: Well, i'll make sure to keep it in mind. Are they a couple by the end of the anime?

About Fairy Tale: I don't really know. Is there actually a main character that is like, yeah, ''the strongest''? Or one that is most focused on? I understand that they are a guild, but well. I don't like the idea of having 10 main characters.

Try Gokusen (the manga is a lot better). The romance is really slow though, and not the main focus, but there's still plenty.

Nyron said:
This is like saying that you want a samurai anime with no action

I don't think you have a mature grasp of romance as a concept
The real problem with asking for "no drama" that it's essentially asking for "no conflict." And from a storytelling point of view, that doesn't work for most genres outside of healing/slife-of-life titles like Aria. If you try that approach to romance, you get "Normal people meet normally, fall in love normally, do a bunch of normal stuff, get married, have kids, retire, and die." And who wants their entertainment to be exactly like real life? Stories need conflict, and in the romance genre, that means obstacles -- other people vying for characters' affections, or other reasons preventing the couple from being together. When it comes to romantic comedies in Hollywood, some have said that the genre is dying because changes in societal mores have removed almost all believable obstacles like race, class, age, religion, parental approval, etc. Movies have to resort to increasingly-outlandish gimmicks like "he's actually a zombie" or "she got pregnant from their drunken 1-night stand."

Lamune, which was mentioned earlier, does sort of qualify. Ai Yori Aoshi/Enishi has a "Go read 9 more volumes of manga" ending, and the second season doesn't advance things very much. It feels like filler, even though it is mostly manga-based IIRC. The first season is reasonably satisfying, and there's no doubt what the main pairing is despite some harem antics.

Acchi Kocchi doesn't have a whole lot of advancement, but it is very cute and there's never any doubt for the main pairing.

The Ah! My Goddess franchise is glacially slow, but any drama takes the form of supernatural goddess stuff rather than love triangles or larger polygons.

ef ~ a tale of memories might work - it focuses on several sets of characters and has drama, but the central Renji/Chihiro relationship is never muddled by other love interests.

Bokura wa minna kawaisou, it aired earlier this year has one season done and doesn't really have drama. It strengths definitely lie in its humor and art style (That 2014 animation tho). Also if you haven't seen Tasogare otome x amnesia, I'd recommend it. It does have drama but its only a 12 episode series so it doesn't get tiresome and I found the story to be truly beautiful.
I'll take a potato chip and eat IT!!!

@Asunajx: Thanks for that big list. I'll make sure to take a look at each of them and eventually come back to you again if i have questions.

@Zalis: I think we have to clear a misunderstanding. Im asking for a romance anime with no drama, so yeah, i have to admit myself, the term ''drama'' is pretty wide and open. When im talking about drama, i thought more like Love triangles, breakups, cheating, Girlfriend dying or those sort of things. Basically, romance-drama. Im fine with whatever else you'll give me. For example:

Golden Time was heavy on drama, wasn't it? But i really loved it. The drama revolved around the MC and his past, the other's were worried about him, but the relationship between MC and Girl was never in danger (Well, at the end, but it was pretty clear by then what would happen).

So basically im really okay if the drama is like Golden Time or ''action-drama''.
What i don't want is love triangles, breakups, etc etc.

If your explanation actually was focused on the ''romance-drama'', then im sorry for misunderstanding you. However, i believe that really great anime can be created without the need of adding love triangles and all sort of those things.

Back to the anime:

I'll make sure to take a closer look at Lamune.

I've heard Ai Yori Aoshi is good, but as you said, the 2nd season is pretty disappointing, so i'll keep that one on my PTW for now. I think i'll come back to it someday tough.

Acchi Kocchi: Definitely going to watch it. Thanks for the information :)

Ah! My Goddess: The user who suggest this (Baqa) wrote:
''Ah! My Goddess! is not harem. And they will always be together :) Their love is unconditional :p''

So, are they a couple during the anime?

Ef: Well, i've started watching it, but as you said before, it's really drama ridden. I'll defeinitely watch it (finish to watch it) someday, but not right now. Also, are you sure that the ''main pairing'' is Renji/Chihiro? To me it looked more like the other MC and Girl, were the main pairing. You know, that girl that stole the MC's bike at the beginning. Will there by any ''meddling'' in that couple?

Bokura wa minna: Yeah, im going to watch this someday too. I started it, but the first episode didn't ''hook me up'', like others did. But i'll still watch it someday.

I've watched Tasogare already. Had it drama? Well, yeah, the past of the fhost, but that's it. It didn't really bother me, since it didn't afflict their relationship. (Except that she broke his arm/leg, cause she was in rage).
