The attachment that exists between a husband and a wife is very strong, and it is easy to believe that even in death, the bond still exists. This is the problem facing Ryousuke Hazuki, a young man who has noticed an alluring flower shop owner, Rokka.
The only problem is that Rokka’s late husband, Shimao, refuses to let go of his wife and is completely against the idea of the younger Hazuki stealing his wife’s heart. As is typical with most romance anime, hijinks ensue, but it is a heartwarming look into grief and moving on.

The natural difficulties that come from such a relationship are present, but what makes it stand out is how likable all the characters are. The protagonist does fall into the pervert MC trope, but he is actually a pretty nice character that audiences will find themselves rooting for.

Spice And Wolf was always one of those shows that ardent anime watchers talked about as an underrated classic. First released in 2008, a newer generation got to experience the magic of the show with its 2024 reboot.
The story centers on the travels of a merchant, Lawrence, and the wolf deity, Holo, who meet various characters on the way, while growing closer in their relationship. While the relationship is perhaps more apparent in the newer version, but older anime watchers will always remember classic Lawrence and Holo with fondness.

Rascal Does Not Dream Of Bunny Girl Senpai is a little different in that unlike many other entries where the relationship is between a human and a supernatural entity, the couple here are both human. The supernatural elements are the things that happen around them which all revolves around the so-called puberty syndrome.

The Monogatari series is a weird one. On one hand, there are those who can truly appreciate it for what it is and enjoy it, while a lot of people don’t get it, but will pretend to do so to seem more cultured. That said, Bakemonogatari, the most famous of the series, is certainly worthy of a watch.
There are many great things about the show from the complex dialogue, to the trippy art style, to the random bits of fanservice. But, an oft overlooked aspect of the show is the chemistry between the love interests, Araragi and Senjougahara. The two just work, and the conversations between the two are some of the best in anime.

There has been a glut of anime remakes over the last decade with some doing better than others. A title that has most definitely done better with the modern treatment is Fruits Basket. Initially aired in 2001, it got a reboot in 2019 which really took the story and animation to another level.
Tohru Honda is a sweet girl who gets caught up with the mysterious Soma family. They have cute boys to the rafters, but also suffer from an ancient curse which makes it so that they turn into animals when hugged by someone of the opposite sex. Tohru seeks to break their chains, and a heartwarming love story ensues.
