Time for a serious thread. What is the greatest romance anime of all time? Is it pic related?
Maison Ikkoku
TADA BARNI
Close OP. But it's this. All memes aside this one is probably the most original, touching, and down to earth romance in anime history. OST is god tier and it does the best job on average of leaving people feeling depressed when it ends.

Toradora isn't a romance. It's a dramady with a romance ending.

Sorry guys but if your romance doesn't have sex then it's garbage middle school shit.
Even that fake ass college one was basically a middle school.

B-but that's smut! It's forbidden!
Any other answers are not wrong, just incorrect.

Maybe if Ghost Banri hadn't ruined fucking everything

I feel like the comedy start makes the romance stronger. It feels more authentic.

Nice meme.

I watched Toradora because I was looking for romance anime after enjoying the fuck out of Cross Game and it didn't quite cut it for me. So it definitely isn't the best romance anime, best girl doesn't even fucking win.

Thanks I'll check out cross game. It looks like some rough stuff from what the wiki summary is giving.

Well there is quite a bit of drama but the romance builds up on it making it even more meaningful imo. After watching a ton of romcom anime (Kokoro Connect more recently) it's still easily the best one for me, hell I don't even know the first thing about baseball but I absolutely loved the show
This one.

First episode went full bridge to teribithia on me. Holy fuck.

At least Golden Time didn't have the two girls liking the same guy shtick.
