I thought it would lead to nothing, like at least first season of Komi. So I was pleasently surprised that there was real, honest romance in it. Very nice. Yeah I was surprised too with that. Even from what I read in the manga and also the authors other works I was no where near expecting the amount it had at the end.

 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
| May I suggest Cardcaptor Sakura? It may be an anime about a magic girl and stuff but the main story for the whole second half and the second movie is the relationship between Sakura and Syaoran. It's honestly a romance before anything else for many episodes. |

| Just wanted to point out a few overlaps/display errors(?) within your list. Ignore them if you separated the entries under your own discretion. 'Romance Anime List' section: - Two entries for Akikan! - Overlapping 'Love Triangle' tags for Kiznaiver - Not sure if you put this in as a meme entry or copy&pasted someone else's writing, but you have Gamers! as 'Misunderstandings the Anime' - Library Wars and Toshokan Sensou are the same show 'Explanations' section: - Romance Content - Low color box extends to two columns extra tag recommendations: Rurouni Kenshin: Age-Gap (Male) Tokyo Ravens: incest? (Male & Female lead are distant relatives w/ same family name), Tsundere (female) Also, I noticed you have the movie version of Escaflowne, but not the TV version. Was this for a specific reason? If not, would you mind if I added it? |
| @BurningCarnation - Two entries for Akikan! - Library Wars and Toshokan Sensou are the same show ah fuk I knew ctrl + F would screw me over, I knew akikan should have been there already - Not sure if you put this in as a meme entry or copy&pasted someone else's writing, but you have Gamers! as 'Misunderstandings the Anime' This was originally done by changelog so I figured why not keep it (he also had yamada-kun and the 7 bitches but someone requested to change that_ Tokyo Ravens: incest? (Male & Female lead are distant relatives w/ same family name), Tsundere (female) I don't recall there being any real incest vibes with them, so it may be a bit of a stretch. But it's been awhile since I've seen it so maybe I'm misremembering, if you think it really should be there it wouldn't hurt to add it I guess Also, I noticed you have the movie version of Escaflowne, but not the TV version. Was this for a specific reason? If not, would you mind if I added it? That's because I've only seen the movie version, not the TV version. If there's a significant difference between the 2 then sure, it can be added too KyleRiley said: May I suggest Cardcaptor Sakura?

It's honestly a romance before anything else for many episodes. It can, but I haven't seen it yet so I can't really say much about it (if you give some more details I can add it in) |

| @Short_Circut Gamers! Ah, well in that case, I guess just leaving it alone is better. Besides, Yamada-kun and the 7 Bitches is also funny, and everyone knows what it'd mean anyway lol Tokyo Ravens That's why I was hesitant: they technically are blood-related, but their relationship plays out more like childhood friends--and that tag is there already, so I guess leaving the incest tag out is better. Escaflowne There's quite a few changes between the movie and TV version, but the most notable ones are: - No love triangle (square? pentagon? more?) between two male leads & female lead(s), and thus a lack of train-wreck-worthy drama & different dynamics - Different (or lack of distinct) relationships between villains and male leads Honestly, Escaflowne would be one of those anime that warrants two different entries because they're so different. I'll get to writing one up. |
Short_Circut said: Cardcaptor Sakura Sorry, I'm going to be including spoilers. Anime Name Cardcaptor Sakura MAL Link (Please do not hyperlink this) https://myanimelist.net/anime/232/Cardcaptor_Sakura?q=cardcaptor&cat=anime How far does the romance go? Considering how young the main cast it it doesn't go that far outside heavy blushing, pinning, and eventual confessions of love. It's a fairly slow burn but Syaoran develops a crush on Sakura somewhat early on (episode 27 or so), but it takes Sakura a while to fully understand her feelings for Syaoran. Do the protagonists kiss? As far as I can recall... No? They are only like 11. Any other relevant information The anime has a heavy focus on romance and growing love. Syaoran when first introduced is a complete jerk toward Sakura, but he eventually develops such strong feelings for Sakura that he helps and supports her without question. Sakura has a crush on her brother's friend, Yukito, in the start but that eventually goes away when she realizes what she's feeling isn't romantic (this actually happens with Syaoran toward Yukito as well). Eventually Sakura grows to fall in love with Syaoran and they even exchange handmade stuffed bears as a sign of their feelings. The second movie sees Sakura eagerly and desperately confessing her deep, unconditional love to Syaoran, believing he has forgotten about his feelings toward her (magic reasons). She ends up in tears when he replies that he feels the same way. Tsubasa is a "spin off" anime that follows and mentions alternate versions/clones of Sakura and Syaoran who are also in love. It's somewhat implied through the CLAMPverse that Sakura and Syaoran are soulmates. Their Tsubasa versions are also mentioned in xxxHolic. There are number of other romances in the anime, some subtle, some not so much. Sakura's brother and his best friend Yukito, for example, are heavily implied to be romantically involved. So... Implied BL? Tomoyo, Sakura's best friend/second cousin, is in love with Sakura (this is especially apparent in the manga) but she loves Sakura so much that she supports her in whatever relationship she pursues. This eventually leads to her becoming Syaoran's "wing woman" and emotional support. She supports them 100% and even pushes Sakura to understand her own feelings for Syaoran. Tomoyo's mother was in love with Sakura's mother. There's a couple of Age-gap romances. One is even between a student and teacher. It's uh. Yeah. It's a bit creepy. Love is a heavy theme throughout the anime. Not only romantic love, but all forms. Familial love, love between friends, unconditional love etc etc. But romance is, never the less, one of the main focuses of the series. |

GreyratAnimelist said: You should make interest stack of it. I've thought about it but 1. you can only have 50 max at a time 2. more effort 3. in the case of manga there's a lot of manga that just isn't on MAL in the first place 4. too lazy |
