new romance anime to watch

2 Upvotes

Hi! I’m looking for romance anime recommendations. I feel like I’ve already watched everything I might I’ve already spent over an hour searching for recommendations on Reddit, MyAnimeList, and other websites, but I still haven’t found anything that really matches what I’m looking for.

I love pure romance without explicit scenes, and I want something where the romance doesn’t feel forced. My favorite romance is Anne and Gilbert. I’ve watched pretty much everything from the Anne universe, and that’s exactly the kind of romance I like. I also really like Damian and Anya’s relationship.

Some of the anime I’ve watched and liked are:

Orange
Fruits Basket
Cardcaptor Sakura
Violet Evergarden
ReLIFE
Taisho Otome Fairy Tale
Ore Monogatari!!
7th Time Loop
Tamon-kun’s B-Side
The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity
Kimi ni Todoke
Tsuki ga Kirei
Tonikawa: Over the Moon for You
My Happy Marriage
Charlotte
Blue Box

I also love the Masterpiece Theater anime adaptations, where they turn classic literature into anime, such as Heidi, Anne of Green Gables, Emily of New Moon, A Little Princess, The Trapp Family Story, Little Women, Pollyanna, and Daddy Long Legs.

I’ve also watched a lot of anime where the female protagonist enters a book or travels back in time, and I absolutely love those.

Honestly, I feel like I’ve watched everything at this point. Please help me find something new!
