"romance" anime

kuzu no honkai

Stop watching anime in general

>>155258308
its aim at teenagers. are you fucking retarded?

>>155258308
Your fault for watching shit.

>>155258308
It's aimed at socially retarded manchildren. They need something to relate to.

if the characters in romance anime actually communicated properly with each other they could finish each series in 3 episodes

They're cliches for a reason; romance is difficult to write convincingly, so every medium has stock love stories that hacks can copy and paste.

3D Japs agonize over crushes for ages, then get drunk and either bang the first person they meet or claim to their friends that they did. Just like every other civilized nation on Earth

>>155258308
Part of it is cliche'd writing aiming at otaku, just regurgitating the same stuff over and over again.

Even mainstream-wise though, it seems like most romance in Japan focuses on the road to it, rather than the romance itself, which of course leads to all kinds of stuff to stop the couple from getting together.

>Calling each other by first name means the relationship advanced to the next stage.

>>155258308
I think NGE handled it poorly for a purpose that I thought was fitting for the theme, for half decent romance you will have to look to a nation with higher birth rates.

Watch monogatari if you want characters who aren't afraid of doing the deed.

I want to marry Zucchi!

>>155258687
That's kind of the flipside and can turn people off for other reasons.

Yeah, they're not afraid to talk with each other or by physical but then you can get 10+ minutes of relentless talk about mundane or abstract whatever while they sit on Araragi's head or something

>>155258308
>Does everyone in japan have crippling autism and social anxiety?
Mostly everyone. That's why anime exists.

>>155258308
Read manga

>>155258308
>waaah i grew out of anime why doesnt cater to me

you have crippling autism

>>155258687
yeah but you have to endure nisios shitty writing

Get laid you fat fuck.

Get back to reddo

>>155258667
Harem is the purest form of romance though fampai.

>>155258308
It's cute.

What exactly is the problem with hormonal teenagers acting like hormonal teenagers?

>>155262085
He wants them to act like American teenagers.
On episode one the MC should hit up one of the girls on snapochat with a picture of his dick.

>>155258308
thank you for making the thread I never could

on a related note I guess, many of the works of Inio Asano feature more interesting/realistic relationships

>>155258308
do you watch shojo or shonen. because shojo doesnt have that stuff most of the time.

>>155262159
Murricans have shit taste in gereral.

>watching shoujo

>>155258308
The people who buy the BDs like that and the people who want to work in the anime industry like it too, so too bad. Your fetish is unpopular.

>>155258308
Kuzu no Honkai maybe fits what you're looking for, though some of the characters are oblivious at times and it's more of a drama than a romance.

>>155262183
Yeah watch some Shoujo OP. It's still shitty retarded autism but it's realistic shitty retarded autism since everyone's an asshole.

>>155258308
>>155262183
Yeah, something like chihayafuru

>>155262538
If Chihayafuru is romance then all anime is.
It's not.
It just has a romantic subplot that barely gets any attention at all. Like every anime.

I guess I should be thankful people mislabel it, though. Because it tricked me into watching it, I thought I didn't want to watch sports anime before I saw Chihayafuru

>>155262684
>chihaya
>sports
oh wow

Try konosuba, the MC sexually harass everyone.

>>155258308
I don't think Nick Sparks movies are a good reflection of common behaviors in the US either.
Romance is always idealized. No one would be itnerested otherwise.

>>155264062
Kuzu had realistic romance and was a smash hit

>>155258308
go watch ore monogatari or golden time

>>155258661
I hope this trip gets perma banned like ((( Accelerator)))

Garden of Words was refreshing.

>>155264177
>realistic
Not really, no.

>>155258308

It's better than nihilistic politically-motivated western live action propaganda.

Why the fuck you want that in anime is anyone's guess.

>>155258308
That's the hack's romance and the industry is full of them
The actual good writers like Maruto(if we pretend Saekano doesn't exist) or Romeo don't have that shit.

>>155258308
Fuck off Chad not everyone is as alpha as you. Reeeeeeee

>>155258308
>romance
200+ chapters of blushing and fidgeting. Main characters get together in the last chapter. You're lucky if there are any pages showing their life as a couple.
If you were a good kid, there even might be a kiss.

>ecchi
MC trips and lands on boobs. Few hundreds of times. Hope the art is good.

>shoujo
If you like drama, love rivals, bishounens, agonizing over smallest shit, NTR, people being dumb and other girly crap, good for you.
On the brighter side, if you draw relationship graph with your blood and say Pater Noster backwards, you will get a new friend. If you don't mind color red and smell of brimstone.

>shounen (romantic subplot)
Couples mysteriously appear there out of nowhere during timeskips. They don't have to make sense, their only purpose is to produce new characters for sequels and induce massive butthurts.

>"adult" series
If romance series were like death from dehydration, then these ones are like drowning.
Welcome to the world where an appropriate response to "nice to meet you" is putting benis in bagina. Also NTR.
Just go read real porn.

Conclusion: if you're looking for a romance that goes through all stages, abandon anime and manga, and embrace VNs. Also lately some LNs, if you are willing to struggle through 10-15 volumes of crappy translations of crappy writing.

>>155266443
This anon knows what's up. Also, you'll need to learn moon runes for actually good VNs

>>155266443
>agonizing over smallest shit
Holy shit this sums up shoujo so well
Fuck it this sums up girls so well

>>155264612
uhm, yes?

>>155264014
it's still blue-balled harem shit where the MC doesn't actually fuck anyone.

>>155270420
This.
It's literally another run of the mill haremshitshow where nothing happens.
