More:
My Little Monster (I forget exactly where the adaption ends though -- the manga end is really good & you should def. read it)
Say "I Love You" (same; I have a goldfish brain for things I've both watched and read but imo it was a good adaption)
Gosick (mediocre mystery but an actual good romance w/an excellent ending)
Kamisama Kiss ( :kimchi: )

Uhm.. somehow romance animes are kind of a guilty pleasure of mine and after kimi no na wa and koe no katachi I switched over to series. Are there any decent ones in let's say the last five years? I don't mind highschool settings at all but I'd rather have an happy ending and closure instead of an open end. I enjoyed ReLife but it's obviously not over, Mikakunin was too crazy for my taste, couldn't stand the loli char and I just finished s1 of Yahari ore no seishun. Really liked the art style and animation but I kinda spoilered myself and already know it's not gonna wrap up with season 2. So are there any romance animes in recent times that actually end on a happy note?

Anthem of the Heart is also nice because it doesn’t pair up the people you think it will but it still ends pretty happily for everyone involved. It is only a movie though.

Seconding this because movies are epic

This manga is cute and sometimes pretty funny, Gokicha is sweet character who's doing her best :3: but I just ended up feeling really bad for her a lot of the time. Poor roach, it's not their fault they're health hazards.

For quite some time now, I've had this lingering suspicion that the japanese government created anime as a sort of weaponized autism to be unleashed quietly on america in an attempt to rot america's youth and create an entirely un♥♥♥♥able generation of kids who can't carry on their family lines. Generation Lost. Some ol' supervillain♥♥♥♥♥♥ Why would they do such a thing? Uh, I donno, ask ♥♥♥♥ing nagasaki. It adds up. It would have been a great plan, too, had it not backfired spectacularly, what with Japan now being the mecca for weebs and sex weirdos. Anime isn't real you ♥♥♥♥ing losers. Save your love for the real world. Stop acting like anime is real or better then real life. You're going to be sad and alone if you do nothing but watch anime. Nothing wrong with being antisocial but drat. Some of you weebs take everything too far. Why're you collecting foreign weapons you don't know how to use? That's red flaggy. Put you on a watch list when your clumsy♥♥♥♥♥sloppily cuts up your grandma cause she wouldn't buy you your narutos. Life is stressful, life is hard, there are times where everything and everyone sucks and I'm miserable. But I don't want to spend my life trying to escape or avoid my hardships and problems. Cause then I'll end up living an empty life. Never making friends. Never finding love. Never accomplishing anything. So. I don't want other people to let anime consume their lives and distract them from important things in life or from things they really want to do. Having hobbies and something you can use to take your mind off things is good. But don't let it be the only thing you care about. There are Victims and there are creators. Do you want to live your life as a victim? Bickering on the Internet and whining or lashing out when someone says something you don't like or that disagrees with your fragile point of view? I wouldn't be in this group if I didn't watch anime and manga too. :') The entire point of my post regardless of how rude I was was that people shouldn't take anime so seriously and let it entirely consume their lives. You can balance it. I don't understand why people take it so personally? Unless they think they're that bad. If what I said hits home that much then. Maybe there is a problem. wink emoticon if they take it so personally and identify with it. Did you ever think that maybe doing nothing but trying to escape is unhealthy and will get you nowhere? Don't play the victim. Some hardships and difficulties are unavoidable. But you can take charge. Every situation you come across in life shapes you as a person. Anime is truly for ♥♥♥♥♥♥s. Sorry to all you ♥♥♥♥ing weaboos out there who absolutely adore anime, but it is crap. I hate it. It's ugly and it looks ♥♥♥♥♥♥ and I think that it should have just stayed in Japan where it originated from. What really pisses me off are all you pseudo-intellectuals who think they are better people by watching some poorly animated ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥t. I mean really, the characters don't even MOVE. They just stand around blinking and moving their mouths. The hell kind of cartoon is that? REAL cartoons like Bugs Bunny, etc were entertaining! There was action and movement, instead of some frame-by-frame intellectual nonsense. Anime is just catered to people with nothing to do in their lives; they need comfort in the anime "world". I'd find more entertainment in doing voice overs on my 3 year old daughter's ♥♥♥♥ing drawings! Anime is turning the men of this nation into hipster ♥♥♥♥♥♥s with hair covering their eyes. Anime is garbage! I dare anyone to prove me wrong. I'd let my kids watch and play drat near anything... Gay porn, Manhunt, Hotline Miami, that weird clown midget porn♥♥♥♥♥♥ hell even snuff films. But the second I see a ♥♥♥♥ing japanimation appear on their computer monitor is when I smash that♥♥♥♥♥♥with a hammer. I'm just doing my part on preventing childhood cancer. It seems you failed your part.

The currently airing show Recovery of an MMO Junkie might be in your wheelhouse, though only three episodes are out.

Edit: ^^^ The use of 'autism', 'cancer' and 'japanimation' in that review clearly marks out the author as a 4channer doing some shtick.

~anime history trivia time~

Rankin-Bass, the studio that produced the old animated versions of The Hobbit and LOTR hired Topcraft to do the actual animation. Topcraft who were the team behind Macross: DYRL? and Nausicaa of course went bankrupt and then was reformed under Hayao Miazaki as Studio Ghibli. :eng101:
