Best Romance Animes on Netflix

Romance is one of the most beloved genres when it comes to anime. Some of them can make you long to have a love life like it, while others hold the ability to bring you to your knees with tears in your eyes. Here’s the list of best romance anime on Netflix:

My Happy Marriage:

The highly acclaimed romance anime My Happy Marriage revolves around a woman named Miyo. She was born in an esteemed family, but after the death of her mother, her father marries another woman. Ever since then, her stepmother and stepsisters treated her miserably. She was treated more like a slave in her own home. Her entire life changed after she met Kouji, a guy who became an escape from her miserable life. She was about to be wed off to Kouji but her stepsister kicks in.

Miyo perfectly gives Cinderella vibes to those who suffered from the same traumas. The emotional moments can really give you teary eyes. Some people might really resonate with the character of Miyo. The soundtrack also gives a subtle and sad vibe that will make you feel emotion.  Both of the main characters suffered from childhood traumas, and their relationship is based on mutual understanding and support. It’s like they find solace and peace within each other. As the anime progresses, we see a clear development in their relationship. Miyo and Kudou make a really cute couple together. This show also focuses on politics along with a beautiful romance.

Blue Box:

Everyone loves a show that’s romance and sports. Blue Box is a perfect combination of elements of romance and sports. It is loved by fans of both sports and romance anime. This is a story of a badminton player, Taiki, who has a childhood crush, Chinatsu, who is an excellent basketball player. Taiki fulfilment and love for badminton only build to impress Chinatsu's love for basketball. He wants her to see how serious he is for badminton. When Chinatsu's family had to leave Japan for some reason, Chinatsu remained in Japan for her basketball tournament. Taiki’s mom offered her to live in her home and she accepted that offer. Just to spice up the anime, we are introduced to Hina, a girl who also has a crush on Taiki. So who doesn’t love a good love triangle that is done perfectly?

All the way you’ll be smiling or blushing at different scenes. During some scenes, Hina becomes the highlight of the show more than Chinatsu, so you might start rooting for Hina more than for Chinatsu. 

Usually you’ll see sports anime sprinkled with romance but Blue Box is a rare case which is a romance anime sprinkled with sports elements. Everyone loves this anime for its likable characters and amazing chemistry between them. You will keep wondering who will end up with Taiki.

Witch Watch:

Want to have good laughs and also want to blush after seeing a romantic scene? This anime is right here for you.  We are introduced to a world , where some witches get married to beings who take the form of humans. They together give birth to a species called Orges. Our main character Nico is a ogre. Nico moves in with her crush, Morihito. He saves her from different kinds of troubles.  

The story progresses in a linear way. There’s nothing complicated about the story, its pretty straightforward. But what makes this anime totally entertaining are the characters and their interactions. The chemistry between them is shown so vividly. You would quickly connect with the characters.  The fantasy element of this anime is also perfectly shown. The character design is really impressive. The anime also has great comedic scenes throughout. The action scenes are fun as well. You would directly get connected to the characters.  This anime is a perfect mixture of romance, comedy and romance. The characters are great and have charm to their personality that makes them exceptionally unique. 

The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity:

This anime is even for those viewers that aren’t fond of the romance genre in anime; like, it might be an exception for them too. The story revolves around Rintaro Tsumugi and Kaoruko Waguri. Rintaro is tall and has an appearance like a bully but in reality he’s totally opposite of what he looks like. Due to this he’s often misunderstood by people as an evil and dangerous bully. But in reality he has a sweet and kind nature. One day Rintaro encounters a short girl named Kaoruko. They didn’t hit straight away but their relationship gradually got better. The writing is beautiful. The dialogues between characters really felt natural. The inner monologues feel relatable. The pacing is fine as well.

Sometimes people avoid romance anime or anime in general due to sexualization of female characters but this anime doesn’t contain any of this at all. This isn’t your typical romance anime, but it's full of intricate past traumas that will put you in your feelings. All characters perfectly embody the feeling of being a teenager that many can relate to, and the relationship dynamics make it even better. Our male and female MCs, both, are mature characters that make the show ten times more interesting.

Romantic Killer:

Here comes one of the most underrated romance anime. The story revolves around a teen, Anzu, who has an obsession with video games, chocolates, and her adorable cat, Momohiki. One day as she was playing a game, a wizard named Riri comes out of the screen and makes all of her three most favourite things disappear. Now she has no hold on her video games, her chocolates fades away and she gets lost in touch with her cat. Seems like she lost her entire life, didn’t she? But Riri promises that Anzu will get access to these things after she falls in love with a guy. But Anzu refuses. 

This is where this anime gets very different from other romance anime where the main female character is waiting for someone to fall in love with her but here Anzu doesn’t want to fall in love at all. The humour is executed well and gives you a couple of good laughs. 

The animation is also really fun. It was a reverse-harem romance anime, as two other love interests, Tsukasa and Junta, also fall in love with her. This show is filled with dark and twisty moments that will give you an emotional rollercoaster.

Vampire in the Garden:

One of the sub genres of romance that can make an interesting story is forbidden romance.

In the world of Vampire in the garden, vampires are dominant in nature and ruling over the world. They are growing in numbers rapidly. Humans were nothing compared to him. The war between them started as vampires needed humans for their blood. Humans get lost to most of their lands to vampires. It became obvious who would win the war.

We follow the story of a girl named Momo who gets attacked by the queen of vampires, Fine. Momo followed Fine and reached her home. Even though they are of completely different natures, they quickly started to fall in love with each other. Enemies to lovers Yes. The relationship between them grew quicker as long as they proceeded. Their love is forbidden due to the war between their races.

The relationship between Fine and Momo is one of the most interesting yet heart-wrenching relationships in the history of anime. With stunning visuals and unique characters, we can see a perfect depiction of forbidden romance and what love can make you do. Even though this is just a 5-episode anime, still it manages to convey a heartfelt story in the most beautiful way that can even make you cry.
