The perfect romcom. Marin is a literal goddess. Amazing animation.
Hard to believe how good a show about making clothes can be.

Don't let the awful 3d animation put you off, this is a very good romance with interesting chemistry between the two protagonists (and you thought Komi couldn't communicate - wait till you see this).
Make sure you watch the 3 OVAs before you start the 2nd season.

Poor man's Quintessential Quintuplets. Not terrible but not that great either. Can be entertaining tho.

It's not great but also doesn't deserve the hate. Just solid romcom if you don't overthink it. Also Sora Amamiya.

If you love ecchi this is S-tier. One of the horniest non-hentai shows that I know. No holding back. A more tame TV series exists too alongside the OVA.

Another ecchi, and one of the better ones. Watch for the hot tsundere (with a satisfying ending). Be prepared for a lot of cultu ... I mean fanservice.

Gabriel Dropout vibes but romance. Pretty entertaining though not terribly original.

Very generic magic academy setting. Nothing is distinctive about this save the very sexy and adorable main girl. Ok fanservice.

It's mainly an isekai but the romance is at the center stage so it's on the list. also worth watching just for the good story and plot.

The plot can get a little over-complicated but the show is very well written and the main girl is incredibly sexy and charming. Intelligently written dialogues for a change. A masterpiece not to be missed.

Despite what the bizarre premise might lead you to think this is actually an enjoyable and touching romance story. Unbelievably cute main girl. Very similar to Darling in the FranXX but less heavy.

If you don't like the topic of incest you can skip, but hear me out. This is one of the most realistic and serious romance animes out there, together with Higehiro. Makes you think and feel all sorts of things. Deserves much higher score.

The wild premise makes for a good plot (and best kiss scenes.)

It is offensive, creepy, and the ending is terrible, but still great romance because the two main girls have interesting and striking personalities.

Worth watching for the gorgeous animation and scenery although the story feels rushed. Guess it has its moments. Oh yeah, and it's about feet.
