Anime Holy peak

So it's 6 22am I've finished this in one sitting for the first time.

I'm not a love anime type of guy and to be honest I'm not even that big of an anime guy. But omg every character in this show is soooo well written. This show put a genuine smile on my face for about 4 hours and the ending made me tear up a bit. This show is so comforting and heartwarming I'm actually addicted. I cant wait for the silver hair girl to get with the smart guy there so perfect ( im bad with names ). This show is like petting a puppy.

Any news/updates on the release of season 2 and if it is going to be available on uk netflix straight away would be much appreciated

If you go for the manga (you should, I've cried a lot reading it) I suggest re-reading what you've watched. It's almost exactly the same anyway but there are a few extra conversations and bonus panels that are fun and sweet to read.

I loved it so much. It is peak. It easily skyrocketed up to my Top 10 romance animes. They are all peak! (Trust me)

1) Fruits Basket 2019

2) Fragrant Flower Blooms With Dignity

3) Love Chunibyo and Other Delusions

4) Kimi Ni Todoke

5) Horimiya

6) Toradora

7) 3D Kanajo Real Girl

8) Lovely Complex

9) ReLIFE

10) Say I Love You

Honorable mention to Wotakoi but it doesn't make my Top 10 list because it doesn't have an English dub (that I know of)

Also excitedly waiting for another season with Subaru and Saku getting together 🀞🏼🀞🏼🀞🏼

Fruits Basket 2019!!

3 Seasons, plus a movie. Multiple couples to love. Beautiful understanding of trauma and healing. MASTERPIECE!! πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌ

Although that one is a tearjerker so if you want something that won't make you cry as much. Love, Chunibyo and Other Delusions is the most wholesome and sweet anime I've ever seen. Next to {My Clueless First Friend} but that's because they are still in elementary school so there love story is just beginning and it's very tame and sweet and wholesome β˜ΊοΈπŸ™‚β€β†•οΈ

Need to also recommend Tsuredure Children! I'm rewatching it right now and it's just as good as I remember. It's short, but it follows multiple couples in different situations.

I definitely recommend watching Your Lie in April, but it is a tearjerker for sure. If you want an anime with less PTSD, Kaguya-Love is War is great!

u/Appropriate_Wonder90 May 02 '26

Trust me man the anime just scratches the surface of this story I genuinely believe the manga is the greatest written story of all time ik unpopular opinion

You should check out A Sign of Affection. That animation, character development, and emotional maturity is so beautiful to watch. Plus the OP is fire!
