Maybe you should stop watching anime then?

If and when this happens to me I'm just going to re watch my favorite shows from time to time.

start watching the top anime leaderboard?
you haven't even watched basics like code geass or neon genesis or cowboy bebop how can you say you're running out?

I would branch out to different genres. If you stay focused on trying to watch anime that pander exclusively to your tastes you're gonna have a bad time.

I can tell you that there are for sure more anime to watch. I joined MAL recently so I don't have many animes added to my account, but if you like romance anime try White Album 2, it's totally a hidden gem, it revolves around mostly romance and music though (you can ignore White Album, its a completely different anime).

Some other good romance animes are:
Golden Time
Hagani
Relife
Nisekoi
The World God Only Knows
From The New World (This ones kinda dark, totally underrated though)

You're at 22 days lmao. Maybe when you get over a thousand days, like some of the users on here (not me...yet) you can have a realistic argument about running out of 'interesting' anime, but probably not even then.

Just watch one piece or any battle shounen. Their interaction may not be for romance but they really show interest towards each other.

Try mirai nikki and gantz for an in depth feel about romance.

You should at least watch all the popular anime before telling people you're running out of anime. I'm watching Kimi no nawa right now after so long being skeptical about it. Probably a 10/10 from me as soon as I finish it.

Your taste looks similar to mine, but we only have 3 anime in common, excluding Plan to Watch, since it doesn't count Plan to Watch.

You have to see things from my list.

How about Hachimitsu to Clover ? There's romance,but it isn't the main appeal.

And since you were fine with Charlottes romance you probably won't complain about

I am very interested by you saying you have nothing to watch, and having seen only a very limited amount of shows in a very small range of show. Try going out of your comfort zone, that's how I got into anime in the first place.

Why would you need to watch anime in the first place smh? If you can't find anything interesting go watch something else or do something completely different, come back later if you feel like, maybe then there's something you'd wanna give a shot.

Look through the top anime list and then read the summary's of each show, that should give you a place to start or alternatively you can look through the shows you've enjoyed, check the tags in the side information and click on those which show up most often and then watch the top rated in those genres.

Alright, well you seem genuine and as you can see from my list I can't relate to your struggle but I can give you some advice as to how to find some new anime.

1. If you wached anime when you were young, try REALLY going through your memory banks as to what you really liked. You can even go the extra mile and look up the channel you watched anime on and what they aired at the time you watched them, in case you've forgotten some real gems. Then give them a re-watch before chucking them onto your list. I promise, it will be a much different experience, watching them with a more mature mindset. Of course, this is only applicable if you had anime in your childhood...or if you're not a child right now, I guess.

2. Think of your favourite genre then just google "[genre] anime classics" or "must watch [genre] anime". Then just skim the lists, read some summaries and add a few that interest you. Similiarly, think of your favourite anime and then try to find anime like them. You have the "recommendations" here on MAL (not quite reliable) or google.

3. If you have any friends who watch anime, ask them for recommendations. You'll either watch something incredibly good or something that will make you seriously question your friend's taste in anime but either way, you will have something to talk about.

4. Here on MAL go to the "Seasonal Anime" section and type in a random year then scroll through the list.

5. Try to find an anime watching challenge. There's one on MAL but I'm fairly sure you can find a few anywhere on the net. These give you a list of anime like "watch something from your favourite studio that you haven't seen before", "watch something that was released in xxxx year" etc. This can really broaden your horizon as you may end up watching anime you wouldn't have otherwise and end up really liking it!

There are many more ways of finding new stuff of course but it's 3am and I'm tired. Remember though, there are bunch of new anime coming out every season so it's LITERALLY impossible to run out of anime. Have fun, and sorry for the long ass post~

Obligatory watch better anime.

I'm the opposite. Ever since I got active on MAL, I met people who recommended me anime which I greatly loved out of anything I've watched for the past decade (been watching anime since 2007), which in turn became my new favorites.

Have you watched the following series, most of which involve romance as part of a larger story?
Angel Beats (though you're probably already aware of this because you've seen Charlotte)
Allison & Lillia
Nodame Cantabile
Eureka Seven
Plastic Memories
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Stellvia of the Universe
The Tower of Druaga
Umi Monogatari
The Girl Who Leapt Through Time

And here's a few more stories that involve romance, though they might be riskier picks due to...let's just say, content, that not everyone agrees on, to varying degrees:


These are from a variety of different genres. I mean no obligation for you to try out all of this, but I hope this list starts you off on an interesting story!

Probably because people with more stuff finished have already discovered ways to find more things to watch, and their "ceiling" is then far, far higher (in the hundreds or thousands).

I'm going to recommend some based on what you sayed and haven't watched yet:

- Date a Live
- Elfen Lied
- Eureka Seven
- Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun
- Isshuukan Friends
- Lovely Complex
- Plastic Memories
- ReLIFE
- Romeo x Juliet
- Soredemo Sekai wa Utsukushii
- Tasogare Otome x Amnesia

And also Hunter x Hunter, it has the most beautiful relationship between two main characters i have ever seen in anime, although it could be considered friendship (which has more supporters tbh) or love depending on your own perspective of the whole thing.

first world problems

I advise people to stop limiting what they watch and just jump into whatever the hell they find :p
I remember romcoms being what got me back into anime about seven years ago, so...that's all I'd want to watch. If it weren't for me one day deciding "well I'm gonna watch Love Live even if it looks like trash" just for the sake of it, I wouldn't have been as easygoing about anime. If it weren't for me one day deciding "well I'm gonna watch One Punch Man even if it looks like trash" just for the sake of watching it, I wouldn't have found out not only how fun action anime can be, but that jumping into any random anime might be a blast. If it weren't for me one day deciding "well I'm gonna watch Hunter x Hunter 'cause it has a high rating on MyAnimeList" just for the sake of it being popular here, I wouldn't have been watching anime much as I do now.

tl;dr Stop limiting yourself under criteria and just watch any random anime you find, even if you don't "feel like it".
