Why is honey and clover never on anyones list. Do you literal retards not understand that is DEFINED the modern josei series? It is literally STILL being copied.

Fucking aria I swear, I hate pseudo elitist shitters from here. Sure aria was good, but I find it hard to believe 99% of you mindless plebs all like almost entirely the same shows. This guys double for 3x3 threads. No fucking personality/tastes, just 17-22 year old faggots trying to impressive eachother with their mediocre bland taste.

I bet you fucking autists weren't even here for when aria was airing. It's so fucking nostalgically overrated. Same shit for kaiba, eve, monster, etc. Go fucking watch eve, it doesn't hold up to being the BEST of 2009 - yet it makes almost every list.

I haven't seen Mononoke, which is funny considering the medicine man part of Ayakashi was my favorite part of the series.

That's the my new way to spot a retard alongside classics like show don't tell and obsessing with character development

An anon falls in love with a girl.

Unable to confess, he is gifted with by a deus ex machina with the girl's favorite bench location. Never minding the strange area, he immediately runs to it, and is overjoyed to find out that she is sitting there.

But, the next day, when he recounts the previous day's confessions to the girl, she only looks at him with a perplexed expression. After some investigation, he finds out that the girl he saw is not the same girl he fell in love with. In fact, she doesn't exist in this universe at all. She is the girl's alternate universe counterpart, who has fallen in love with the MC's own AU self, who too is blissfully unaware of her crush.

Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private secrets in order to equip the other with the weapons they need to conquer the heart of their other selves. While the two chase their respective loved ones, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall in love with each other instead and question the NATURE of SITTING CREEPILY ON BENCHES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT.
