Top Romance Animes

by Troy Shen
written by Troy Shen

During this summer, I picked up a new hobby- binging anime. Although watching anime till 3am in the morning is necessarily healthy, it still was rather enjoyable (except when trying to wake up in the morning). I first got into anime after watching My Hero Academia and the Shounen genre, but my tastes have shifted into more romantic animes. Here are some of my personal top romance animes that I really enjoyed, whether being really wholesome, comedic, or bot.. There are probably even better ones, but again I recently got into anime, so if you’ve got any good animes to recommend me, feel free to leave a comment on this blog! Anyways, enjoy!

Tonikawa: Over the Moon for You

This anime is rather wholesome, but really funny at the same time. In Tonikawa: Over the Moon for You is about a boy who meets his destined lover in middle school after she saves him from getting hit by a truck. She disappears, but returns to marry the protagonist the day he turns 18. The protagonist now has to figure out how couples work (which is the comedic portion) while living with his newlywed wife (wholesome). There is a season 2 coming up  for this show too!

Given

I would say this LGBTQ+ anime is the definition of wholesome. There are two main characters, one who has just lost a close person and tries to hold onto the close person’s passion to retain memory of him, and the other who kind of accidentally just runs into the other character. Their shared passion is music, and we also learn more about their past lives and how they get along in the future.

A Lull in the Sea

This romance anime can be funny, but is wholesome. This anime brings us to another world where there are sea people and land people who are at odds with each other. There are two seasons, and each season feels like another anime (trying my best not to spoil anything. Each episode is even more intriguing, and might cause you to get addicted! Either way, the protagonists have complicated relationships with each other and try to unite with each other with the land people and the sea people.

Kaguya-sama: Love is War

Probably the most comedic show I have ever watched, this romance comedy is a tale between two lovers trying to get each other to confess. Why? Because apparently the one who confesses has to do everything for the other person. The two lovers try really stupid tactics to woo the other, but nothing progresses. This series is actually not complete, be wary for the future!

Horimiya

Wholesome wholesome wholesome- way too wholesome. Looking for a typical high school romance where the protagonist becomes a changed man? Tada! The protagonist in this story is an emo teenager who meets with one of the stereotypical all-star girls, and this anime shows us their relationship (which is again super wholesome). If you want to feel true wholesomeness, this is the perfect anime for you.

Simone eventually made her way to Los Angeles, where she attended Biola University, graduating with a degree in Sociology with an emphasis in Criminal Justice and a minor in Biblical Studies. Being biracial and growing up around a diverse array of cultures, Simone was gifted with a unique understanding of the world and a deep seeded desire to help humanity.

With a newfound perspective, she started to learn as much as she could about the issue eventually leading her to launch Social Brew in October of 2021. Social Brew is an e-commerce coffee company which donates 50% of profits between two non-profit partners to aid in the fight against human trafficking.

You can try to speak to him in Mandarin, but be warned: he learned by watching Peppa Pig (小猪 佩奇).

Austen Brantley

Self-Taught Sculptor

Austen Brantley is a self-taught sculptor from Detroit, Michigan. He discovered his affinity for sculpting during his junior year at Berkley High School. There, Brantley was inspired and encouraged by his ceramics teacher, who saw Austen’s talent for molding beauty from the clay. After only two years, Brantley began receiving local and statewide recognition. Seeking to hone his craft, Austen has proudly worked as a full-time professional artist since 2014. His work has been presented across the country in numerous solo and group exhibitions including two upcoming 2024 shows: Wounds, solo show at M Contemporary, Detroit, MI (August/September); and TBD two-person exhibition at Indy Art Center, Indianapolis, IN (September/December). As Brantley continues to live and work in Detroit, he has dedicated his career to creating a legacy for future generations. An essential step toward this goal has been his public commissions, including his most recent bronze unveiling: a memorial commemorating the Tuskegee Airmen of World War II for the Office of the City of Detroit. At the same time, Austen completed a larger-than-life design for the new Freedom Monument Sculpture Park at the Legacy Museum in Montgomery, Alabama. He is the recipient of multiple awards, including the prestigious Kresge Arts Fellowship in Detroit last year. Austen aims to provide young people with the opportunity to see themselves reflected in art while also subverting the stereotype of toxic Blackness. A powerful representation of the resilience and strength, each artwork and exhibition hopes to reflect shared experience and challenges his onlookers to seek peace, honor, and excellence.
