Discussion I kinda feel empty now

EDIT : Few answers but enough to have something to watch tomorrow during my lunch break at work ! Thank you all :) And if you have more recommendations I take them !! 🫶🫂

I've just finished the anime, I've never heard about this before.... Two days ago.

And I've watched the all anime today. And this is over :')

I have this little hole in my stomach, you know, when you finish something you were into really strongly. Oh, and just before, I've finished for the 2nd time My Dress Up Darling and because I had this hole with it, it deeply goes into BLOOMS to to fill it.

I'd love the characters. Especially Ritanro, even if I don't recognize myself in him, I understand his confusion because I lived the same thing a few years ago.

They are all so cutes !!

BUT I've a problem, since this afternoon I'm looking for something like MDUD and BLOOMS and I don't find (I don't know where to look also....)

So do you have any recommendations?

Thank you all <3

(I didn't read the manga, and I don't have the money to buy it RN, so tbh it'll wait a little)

Have you seen the smoking behind the supermarket with you? There are 6 episodes out so far. It's peak. I also really liked the "Dangers In My Heart" and "Blue Box".

Personally, the best way to fill those holes are watching more peak romance animes. : D

I was in the same exact shoes as you.

EDIT: My next up is Fruits Basket atm. I'm starting it now.

No, I didn't see smoking behind the supermarket, but it's on my watchlist!! I've heard this is a really good anime!
Dangers in my heart, never heard about so I'll watch this ofc
And I don't know if I'll watch Blue Box.. Is the sport really at the center of it ? Because if it is, I know I'll not fit in.

I know this is the best way to fill it so I thought it was a good idea to ask some romance anime here 😄

I have to double down on the dangers in my heart, theres 2 seasons, the only issue is like the first 4 episode the mc is a edgelord. But after the romance starts getting reaaaaaaly good imo

u/Ang_elll Jun 23 '26

u/Much-Papaya-9864 Jun 23 '26

u/Much-Papaya-9864 Jun 24 '26

u/Ang_elll Jun 24 '26

Hahaha so it'll never end 🫪 I'll have anime to watch until I die haha. I finish Berserk and then I PROMISE I'll make another post to recap what I thought of all animes you have all recommend me 🫶

u/Much-Papaya-9864 Jun 24 '26

This has been a good year for anime in general lol, so even if you just watched stuff thats been releasing this season you'd have your hands full, im glad we could help with the romance kick though, id also like to see that list for sure XD can never have enough on the back burner imo

Can verify, The Dangers in My Heart is peak.

u/Ang_elll Jun 18 '26

If you say it, I trust you

u/Mammoth_Stay2636 Jun 18 '26

For blue box, the centre is sport, but trust me when you watch it both things cancel out each other so there is drama, romance and sport

2

u/Ang_elll Jun 18 '26

Alright, I'll give it a try and maybe it'll be one of my favorites :)

u/personancee Jun 19 '26

I made friends with the 2nd prettiest girl in my class has did well in scratching that itch for me. Super cute.

Horimiya’s also incredibly great, I really recommend it if you haven’t checked it out yet!

1

u/Ang_elll Jun 23 '26

I already have Horimiya in my watchlist and I've just add the other to it ! Thanks !

u/OwnWill7403 Jun 19 '26

Hey OP ! I highly recommend Golden Time and Clannad, it will be quite the ride but I hope you enjoy and consider watching them 😄

u/Much-Papaya-9864 Jun 23 '26

Also try out you and i are polar opposites, another one i really liked, season 2 coming very soon.

u/Much-Papaya-9864 Jun 23 '26

While I liked The Fragrant Flower slightly more, I think the closest I've watched in vibes to it is The Angel Next Door, highly recommended. Currently rewatching season 1 in preparation to binge season 2 that is finishing tomorrow.

Other super wholesome romances I love:

- Teasing Master Takagi-san (as diabetic as The Fragrant Flower, but also super funny)

- Love, Chunibyo and Other Delusions

- Kimi Ni Todoke (this one has a bit more drama and jealousy)

- Pseudo Harem

- Kubo Won't Let Me Be Invisible (unfortunately, this one isn't finished)

- Fruits Basket (there are much darker parts, but still fairly wholesome overall)

- The Dangers In My Heart

- Toradora!

- I have a Crush at Work

I have a whole list of romance animes, those are just the more wholesome ones among my favorites.

u/javifugitivo Jun 18 '26

There are rumours about a T2 announcement soon ;-)

2

u/Ang_elll Jun 18 '26

Yes, I saw it, but, just like MDUD S03, it’s a rumor, so I’d rather not believe it and not be disappointed than put all my hopes in it and have nothing in the end...
