I'm just wondering if it's missing or there simply isn't romance involved in the show. I already ship the main characters of course, but is it really only me who has noticed the signs of a starting romance going on? So how come no tag? Will there really be nothing going on? What do you guys think?

Looking at episode 8 i would not give this a romance tag, to me something that ends halfway through with no confession is no romance, and this is how this anime will end. Either this or the ending will be so rushed that it will be pointless anywya to tag it as romance.

There is a metric ton of anime on this site with the romance tag and no confession.

Agreed, this needs a romance tag.

Um, maybe we've watched different versions of episode 8? It seemed like a textbook romance to me.

I don't know how you can say that considering the focal point of this show is the main character's relationship with Sakurai which is clearly progressing romantically.

It's the way it's marketed. There's some shoujo anime on this website that are literally hentai, but they don't have the hentai tag.

Another example would be Yuri on Ice; it's obviously a shounen-ai, but it's not marketed that way.

For Net-juu no Susume, the original work doesn't even have a romance tag.

Unlike the ambiguous relationship in Yuri on Ice, this series is pretty obvious. They even went out for a date. So it's a bit strange it doesn't have romance tag. It's clear Sakurai is pursuing Morioka romantically.
bla bla bla
The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

I could use that same argument for literally any series. Sometimes relationships are just sub plots. Sub plots aren't really a good indicator of what a show is really about.

I could also argue that Net-juu is a Slice of Life or a Drama because it has some of those elements. That doesn't mean that's what the show is about.

If you were joking then I hand it to you because I had a good laugh reading your comment. By your definition MAL will have to remove romance tag from more than half of the 1560 anime those are tagged with romance in its database.

Tag in the original work? Link please or you probably think MAL's database is absolute. I have added over a hundred Anime/Manga in MAL's database so I know its credibility. Also, I really want to know a shoujo hentai if there's one. Please give me a link in MAL. Btw, don't mention NANA or Kaikan Phrase. Because if you do, you obviously don't know what is hentai and what is not.

Are you really that lazy to click on Net-juu's adaptation?

Okay, and?

They're actually Josei, not Shoujo. They still have sex scenes either way.

It's blowing my mind that this anime still has an average rating of 7's . I had no intention of watching it based on the tags but when my friend pushed me to watch it and kept saying that I'll like it, I gave it a try and now it's my favorite anime in a long time. I read several random articles that came up in my feed about how surprising Net-juu was this season , how refreshing and how good it is.
I think the rating should be much higher and Romance should definitely be added to the genre tags.

I don't really think that their is that much romance in it to earn the romance tag.

Let me correct myself:
YOU probably DO think MAL's database is ABSOLUTE.

I am not here to educate anyone but you probably never heard of what these anime (or the source, for that matter) are actually called either. Yes, they are NOT JOSEI. Go figure out what they are called yourself. You think these are Josei since MAL says so. Let me tell you again:

YOU DO think MAL's database is ABSOLUTE.


To put you at ease, I have read many shoujo (yes, shoujo)/josei manga that have sex scenes. Just be my guest and consider them to be Hentai as I am not here to educate anyone.

People, Shoujo and Josei are just demography of where the manga was published. These two manga were published in a josei magazine so they are josei.

People pick where it's published and they go and put this as a genre in anime for some reason but it's just a manga magazine demography.

Sorry dear. They were not published in ANY Josei magazine. I know the difference between genre and demography. If that is the case all Hentai would needed to be tagged as Seinen. MAL just doesn't have it listed in the options so they just got labelled under Josei because that's the closest they could think of.
