Kaoru Hana wa Rin to Saku

Some romance anime that I've watched!!

Eden's Zero won't be returning to Netflix as it seems the sequel's rights went over to Crunchyroll, I'll update the list if the next Hathaway Flash Gundam films are slated to release on Netflix. We now know the film cast for the Scott Pilgrim film will return to its anime adaptation by Science SARU, so far, we don't know if it'll even be added to the MAL database like other IPs supposed "anime" adaptations, in quotation marks because Netflix can call it anime all it wants but some don't count.

Chi.: Chikyuu no Undou ni Tsuite has been releasing only in Netflix for the time being but isn't marked as an exclusive for the platform.

No open end (to some extent, in some)
No harem, bl or gl
No ecchi (or slightly in some)
*They are tagged as romance genre or romantic subtext theme, the degree of romance content varies and some blooms in sequels which will require patience.
!After completing the anime it's recommended checking out the sequels, movies and/or source materials, if they have those, to confirm couples getting together and/or for further developments.
*Please do specified research before giving your time to watch.
The list is full but replacements with better quality new animes will happen, therefore it's suggested getting the ones you consider watching on your list. I'm not as knowledgeable about animes aried since spring 2024.

SERIES ONLY LIST

Upcoming/unreleased anime with potential to be absolute bangers and even game changing for the medium.

Basic Criteria:
- not a sequel
- Remakes are eligible
- Spinoffs are eligible if they are loosely related enough to the original.

This will be an endlessly ever growing and changing list being updated regularly, adding in new promising releases once announced and removing ones that have already started or finished airing.

The following should be included in at least each series:

- Romance/Hint of Romance
- Adventure
- MC is Female

my anime recommendations, no order. only the first season of an anime is added, as i'm recommending the entire franchise, doesn't mean whatever season inserted here is my favorite.

some sequels don't follow up as strongly (later seasons of food war imo), some prequels aren't as good as the sequels (attack on titan for reference imo, s3 onwards is peak. everything before, fun, but nowhere as peak). though, nonetheless, its still great enough to recommend the whole franchise either way

Anime to melt that cold dead heart of yours.

a list inspired on Stardust Telepath... this season that we got 3 title in a row with shy girls all at once... a work in progress list any suggestion is welcome.

A lot of romance animes have mc's who get mad or irritated a lot, which is not my thing to be honest.
So here is a list with main characters who are very kind and supportive towards each other!
they show each other appreciation, acception, respect and lots of positivity.


If you have animes that add to the list please tell me and i'll be glad to give it a look.

AAA MY FAVORITE! it's so wholesome.

Adolescence is the most significant period of change in our lives, a fleeting yet intense stage where we begin to discover who we really are. It’s the moment when innocence starts to fade, and experience takes its place, shaping the identity and personality that will accompany us for the rest of our lives.

This collection brings together anime that capture the essence of growing up through real, relatable stories. These series dive into the emotional, social, and psychological struggles of adolescence and young adulthood, exploring themes like self-esteem, anxiety, loneliness, trauma, personal growth, first love, passion, and the search for purpose.

With powerful messages, life lessons, and moments of introspection, these stories reflect the beauty and complexity of coming of age, a journey of change that defines us and pushes us toward the future.

*this does not include all of the +8.0-rated anime that you can stream on Netflix
