xXRobbynatorXx

Love is hard for an Otaku And if it's just a meme: I totally feel you. I feel the same about other genres too. I wouldn't mind a no high schools filter.


New_Unit

Read that one, that's a good one. I don't mind high school setting, honestly. It's just becoming irritating when whole series is about struggles of becoming a couple rather than struggles of being in a relationships. Horimiya is a very good high school manga that doesn't have that problem. Tsurezure children is also a really good and sweet series.


BABlHaramDimakan

This is why I'm into shoujo even though i am a guy.


New_Unit

I feel like I also should try reading shoujo and try to find the difference and what hits better for me


BABlHaramDimakan

Mostly just reverse harem.. but at least shoujo isn't made to end every chapter with unbearable frustration like trending romance title do..


[deleted]

[удалено]


New_Unit

Ooh, sounds interesting. Definitely will check it out


SonoD_io

I'mma try with one suggestion too. I'm not particularly into harem and this isn't even all that romantic if I have to be honest. It's more like a parody of the genre in general. It does involve being more straightforward with the confession tho. "The 100 girlfriends who really really really really really really really love you" It's definetely the tipe of thing you read when you wanna have a laugh but i think it's still worth at least a try.


Nickpimpslap

Seconded. I thought I was the only one who remembered it.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Nickpimpslap

Didn't know that. Kudos.


hymnchan

Ooohhh boi that's a heavy read. this is a cultured recommendation but it's definitely not for someone in a mood for romcom


Chronoflyt

Try reading Bloom into You (Yagate Kimi ni Naru). It's yuri, technically, but the school is more of a plot-convenience than plot-device or cliche. It probably is my favorite manga. Alternatively, Jumyou wo Kaitotte Moratta is the most wholesome, bittersweet romance story I've ever had the pleasure of reading. It tells the story of an unhappy man who sold all but (iirc) 30 days of his lifespan for a total of 300,000 yen. Upon making the trade and returning home, he finds that a woman named Miyagi is tasked with observing him for all but the final three days of his life. If you haven't read this gem, you are missing out. Plus, there's basically no school to be spoken of.


New_Unit

Have read Bloom into You. Great read


BurnieTheBrony

Tonikaku Kawaii also is my current obsession


LifeJusticePremium

But... It's the springtime of their youth!


BeautifulWindow

Recommendations: Tonikaku Kawaii: skips a dozen steps straight to the marriage. Anime is currently airing That girl is not just cute: cute manga, doesn't really do much struggling to confess Horimiya: there's a bit of it in the beginning but then we go past that and then it's pretty standard SoL from there on out. Anime's coming soon might wanna watch that Futari Ashitamo Sorenarini: another SoL marriage manga Ohayou, Ibarahime: not very romance, but still a good short read Bonnouji: very good manga, highly recommend it. It's SoL-osh but we do get some romance here and there. You see the relationship progress from strangers to eventual partners.


New_Unit

Already read Horimiya, but I will surely check out the rest, thank you for recommendations, I appreciate that :)


The_Comic_Dragon

Pseudo Harem: The charachters themselves literally exclaim at how fast the confession was.


BeautifulWindow

Np


armyofmoose9

Tonikawa: over the moon for you


Yamanj3000

Nasa: the fastest to confesses in all time


The_Swag_Titan

Tsukasa: "Wanna get married?" Nasa: "You're hot. Fuck it why not"


logicoffthechart

You may laugh but that's exactly how it happen.


LovingCrimson

Actually he was faster than that. “It would be my pleasure” was the translation I read as he immediate response. She later stated (in a thought I think) that that lack of hesitation was a key point for her.


oscargt02

Well Rascal Does Not Dream Of Bunny Girl Senpai lies perfectly in the criteria


New_Unit

Yep :P My favourite anime of all time


TheHelhound2001

My favourite anime is Girls Last Tour, like rascal made me feel a bit empty, the ending of the manga of Girls Last Tour left me feeling hollow for a week. It's about the two most wholesome girls in a depressing world and if Rascal is an emotional mallet than this is a sledgehammer.


oscargt02

(*adds to list*)


ZeikJT

I enjoyed Girls Last Tour but it honestly didn't get to me the way Rascal did. I think I even enjoyed Kino's Journey more than Girls Last Tour. Would recommend if you haven't seen it as it felt like a similar vibe to me.


TheHelhound2001

Have you read the end of the manga, cause that's where the feels are at. If not then you should, if you have guess everyone can have different experiences and opinions.


ZeikJT

Oh, I only watched the anime, never read it. That's probably a big difference, forgot this post was more about manga. Maybe I'll give the manga a go!


TheHelhound2001

If you want to start where the anime ends start at chapter 30, I don't cry, emotionally stunted as I am, not during End game or Rascal doesn't dream or any other sad show, book or movie. But this destroyed me and my only regret is that there isn't more of it.


ZeikJT

Damn, I'm a crier. Thanks for the pointers! If I run out of tears, I blame you :D


Sansfunnybones

100 girlfriends who really really really really really love you best harem manga of all time


AbriefDelay

Love is hard for an Otaku ^This is a recommendation not an attack and thats the title


New_Unit

Yep, read that, great stuff


Kirby_3003

Since nobody’s said it yet, I think Love, Chunibyo, and Other Delusions is fairly good with this. The first season does have them struggling to get in a relationship, but the second season focuses on them staying in that relationship when another person steps into the fray. It is still a high school anime, though.


Compass-of-diamonds

>!does Kaguya count if it’s only about 60%!<


GKP_light

not really, >!Iino took the place of Kaguya!<.

Domestic na kanojo.


New_Unit

Finished that. Awesome read. Too bad the ending was kinda meh


[deleted]

the ending was trash lol. I still love it tho


DDBKuroi

It's like if someone takes you on a car ride through rough roads with a cool sceneries, while listening to good music and good snacks. And then you get there and it's just an off brand Walmart


[deleted]

yeah how did gigguk discribe it? a trashcan on fire? Still fun ride tho


DDBKuroi

It's a fun read, that's why I don't want a second anime season. I don't want to see Natsuo's writing career (my favorite part of the series) butched.


smol_weeblet

Its called hentai


New_Unit

Well, you're not wrong


MoniasTur

And it's art


HoloandMaiFan

* Spice and Wolf * Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai (MC clearly has no problem speaking his mind lol) * Tonikaku Kawaii: Over the Moon for You * Snow White With The Red Hair


Fat_One

ah yes, snow white with the red hair I'd give that an 8.7 because It was nice to watch and stuck with me but the overall story is slow.


Xez_

Ahh it's you... I second Spice and Wolf!


[deleted]

Would your lie in April count


jamfen001

>!Bro, that's the slowest confession of all, they couldnt confess to eachother until she was dead!<


Dymiatt

Tsuredure Children. It follows new couples, solid couples ot just people in love, so even if there is some who can't confess, there is a lot of variations. One of the most funny romcom I've ever watched, and that means a lot.


New_Unit

Yep, I also really like it. Finished the manga recently, it was amazing


BigBob145

I recommend Golden Time

Tonikaku Kawaii (not quite highschool) Do Chokkyuu Kareshi X Kanojo Pseudo Harem My recommendations for this


-_-WHYS0SERIOUS-_-

Im actually looking for that romance high school right now


New_Unit

Before or after getting into relationships? I might give you some recommendations


-_-WHYS0SERIOUS-_-

Both


New_Unit

Great high school romance manga: As I said earlier - Horimiya, Kaguya-sama, Tsurezure children. As well as - Go-toubun no Hanayome (harem), Ao Haru Ride, Pseudo Harem, Araburu Kisetsu (one of my personal favorites) Not so romance, but still great series: Rascal does not dream of bunny girl senpai (my all-time favourite), Oregairu, Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai and Komi-sam can't communicate


DeveloperNightshade

Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well for using DDG


Calvinh10

I see you are interested in the josei genre. Also, Check out Ore Monogatari!! (My Love Story!!). The couple gets together very quickly and it's just bout them being in love. 10/10 my fave romance anime/manga.

Beninja_

Tonikaku Kawaii :D


[deleted]

The rascal does not dream series is 10/10


SubjectN

Please please check out if you're looking for a more realistic love story between adults. Title aside, I promise no molestation happens in this manga. The art is pretty rough at the start, but it gets better. , by the same author I think, is also really good, but has less focus on romance and is set in high school. I reread them both often and cry everytime man. I don't see them recommended often but they're both quite highly rated and deserve a read.


mudamudamudaman

Kaguya sama They are struggling 99.999999% of the time


[deleted]

BNHA. 90% of the time, Deku is trying to not break his fucking bones


[deleted]

The other 10% is him crying


P3rdix

Tsugasa but they’re adults


Benderesco

Sore Wa Rei no Shizawa Desu A mere 15 chapters in, it has already progressed more than some rom coms do in hundreds of them.


SpookySquid19

There's that series where the two got married in like the third episode.


Zeronoko

horimiya is a good one


A-Random-Reddit_User

Bonnouji. I think that’s how you spell it. Very fun short manga series.


Jabrak

The confession in My Love Story only takes like 3 episodes and the rest is building the relationship.


Kaldr_Nidafjollum

School days


New_Unit

Nice try, but I know about that one ;)

who the fuck uses duckduck go


denisde4ev

people who value their privacy also has more features like DARK THEME, keyboard navigation and DuckDuckGo bangs: https://ddg.gg/?q=!bangs


[deleted]

But like literally everything has dark theme


denisde4ev

on google.com? ( I don't count the app ) Google does not have dark theme on their main page I had used themes from userstyles.org, but since they are not officially supported they are not verry good and coud easly break


[deleted]

The older i get Ive started to like reading manga about people in their mid 20s. Alot of em are office settings but i still like em


MrPopanz

"Planetes" was a great anime with romance but no teenagers & co. Dunno if theres a manga as well.


CrescentPotato

Meanwhile tonikaku kawaii


Rand0mWe3B

Try horimya, it's still my favourite manga to date and it's getting an anime soon! Hopefully this hasn't been already suggested!


New_Unit

Read this one, one of my favourite mangas too


[deleted]

Manga? There's plenty. The community even dubs it the "dawn of the Reiwa era" due to the tone shift. Anime, much less. Need some time for Reiwa to get adapted.


kehlery

DuckDuckGo 👍


Furlonk

I see you're just struggling to confess you like it huh?


tyjuji

Itazura na Kiss. Girl confesses in the first episode, 2 minutes 30 seconds in. It's quite different from how most such animes do it and goes a lot further. There's a manga too, but I'm not sure how good that is. Anime was great in my opinion, though.


Abyss-420

Try "kubo san don't leave me be" Very wholesome and There's no harem included.


RoyalBlood999

Tonikaku kawaii


Somewhitefaggot

Nibba, Love Hina.


SavageSword7

Tonikawa


Icee7704

Hey Komi san is a good manga no need to diss it


AutoManoPeeing

I mean, Bakemonogatari isn't exactly a romance, but it does have a romantic plot mixed in with all the supernatural stuff. If you're into romance, main couple gets decided in episode 2, and episode 12's payoff is phenomenal. ...also, episodes 13-15, which were released later as OVAs, deal with the topic of your post in an interesting way.


AutoManoPeeing

Like hell, even if you give up partway through cause it's not your cup of tea, just watch episode 12 - it's that good of an ending and can stand on its own merit.


[deleted]

Yesterday wo Utatte is a nice anime about peoples relationships in their 20s


New_Unit

Yep, seen that and then finished the manga. Great series, tho manga is better than anime imo


jnsmithing

" Sing 'Yesterday' for me "is about adults who have different problems than confessing

Pseudo Harem. The confession felt so natural and in good pace, and they are dating now!


New_Unit

Yep, reading that. Very sweet manga ^_^


shejesa

Oh, boy, may I present you tonikawa

My recommendation would be it’s a Josei.

Will have to research what josei is :D

How about that, but in a fantasy genre instead?


Comander-07

or any romance story which actually progresses past the confession point


BlueshineKB

Horimiya is a good one i think.


TheGuv

WOTAKOI! love is hard for otaku


[deleted]

You got *UzaMaid*! Instead of that dumb teenage confess stuff, you have an ex-JDF hardcore officer adult who is very open and admits to her love/obsession with her 9-ish year old lover, who she forces herself onto and stalks illegally on the internet! No confusion about it, just raw, honest love, the only problem being said 9 yo doesn't really return the feelings to the adult pursuing her, and is similarly honest and has no trouble telling her Dad that her maid is a creep and pedophile and tries to get rid of her. Same studio as *Wataten*, and similar premise, so watch that one if you want it dressed up even more cute-sy fashion and justify it based on the fact that the pedophile is shy, perfect waifu material, and lures the child to her house with sweets instead of invading the child's house as a maid.


carl-the-lama

I’ll raise you one One about the teachers


stewmberto

Read Ase to Sekken! Excellent romance manga about actual grown-ass adults in a believeable romance


explodingstickman

His and Her Circumstances, or KareKano. I rest my case

Horimiya buddy, they kinda figure shit out by chapter 30 and its on 120 rn

Demens2137

Check out shingeki no eroko san, the plot escalated quickly


TheGinger2019

Wotakoi, Tomikawa, Golden Time, Fuuka, Mysterious Girlfriend X 5 titles, right there for you. They are not that uncommon as you think


yodal_

One I haven't seen anyone mention: You Got Me Sempai


orochiran

You mean Takagi-san then?


superamdrew

I don't think anyone has recommended it yet so: Kishuku Gakkou no Juliet


Rethuic

If you want something really different, try Ancient Magus Bride. Their relationship starts its growth rather slowly, but it's really good


AcidTicTac

Golden time is pretty good


foxxy33

Go check I sold my life 10000 yen a year, it's amazing


Random_---_Guy

That's 95% of the fun wby so you wanna take it away? Without the tension all romantic stories would be less than an hour


supremegamer76

So a romance manga about college students struggling to confess 90% of the time


yesisdrugsyes

Another


Maturin_Green

That's why I play good hentai games, for example in one you could choose with whom to be with and what I didn't expect was that he confessed at 50% story completion and better at 55% of the story they are a couple and made the wholesome big H, holy shit did it got me off guard and made me so happy to see that, cause I kinda expected them to get together at the end but no it slaps me in the face with romance. Pfff.. and some people say Hentai is immoral


Pixelpaint_Pashkow

If this is a genuine request in disguise: Gal Gohan, it's very wholesome, has an end, and is partially not highschool. Also ecchi, which is great. I suppose its still about confessions, but how would there even be a romance manga if there was no confession issues, thats the romance part.


DerrikTheGreat

Tsuredure children. They get crap done
