Classic shoujo animes would be Fushigi Yugi and Ceres. Kare Kano (His and Her) is also good. Fruits Basket is cute....and thats all I can come up with atm.

I say....watch s.CRY.ed. Everytime I watch that anime I am filled with lovey dovey feelings...and the urge to use my alter power and smash things.

I said I was filled with lovey dovey feelings, never said it was a romance anime. I just think Kazuma is the cutest anime character evar.

Post Post subject: KOR
Posted Wed Jul 30, 2003 1:57 am

Kimagure Orange Road (KOR) is one of my all-time favorites. Sure, it made in the 80's and can't compare to today's animation standards, but if you're looking for romance, few can compare to KOR.

KOR is your standard love-triangle romance story. Madoka and Hikaru are childhood best-friends. Kyosuke's just moved into town. Hikaru's immediately fallen for Kyosuke, but Kyosuke seems more interested in the more mysterious Madoka. Oh, and Kyosuke comes from a family of ESP'ers and has some special powers. Of course, they only serve to get Kyosuke into more trouble.

KOR is a story of best friends, first loves and tough choices. In a world where most "romantic" anime now consists of one guy and at least half a dozen women chasing him for no apparent reason, KOR stands out as a true classic with an ending that is not to be missed. (and I'm referring to the OVA ending, not "Shin KOR", although I did like "Summer's Beginning" a lot.)

Straight up Romantic drama is not really my thing, so I'll limit my suggestions to:

His & Her Circumstances (Kare Kano)
Hana Yori Dango
Voices of a Distant Star (Hoshi no Koe)

I prefer shows that mix romance with other plot elements, be it action or comedy.

Ai Yori Aoshi
DNA^2
Escaflowne (The series)
Full Moon wo Sagashite
Kanon
Narue no Seikai
Oh! My Goddess
Pita-Ten
Sakura Diaries
Shin Shiraiyuki Hime Densetsu Pretear
Video Girl Ai

I'm not making any distinction here between unlicensed, licensed but not yet released, and DVD released shows, but that would take too long, and be less accurate than checking up on that for yourself.

I dunno about KareKano and FB being "classics" just yet, but they are good none-the-less.

I would suggest:

Fushigi Yuugi
Marmalade Boy
Hana Yori Dango
Ayashi no Ceres
Ah! Megumi-sama
Ai Yori Aoshi
Hand Maid May
Love Hina
Maison Ikkoku
Saikano (sad, but romantic)
To Heart


That should keep ya busy for awhile.

Seconds on Marmalade Boy and Maison Ikkoku. Also, I have to register my standard burning hate of Fushigi Yuugi. IMO, outside of the swank OP and ED music, the FY TV series was one of the worst things I ever subjected myself to watching (not the worst mind you; that is saved for an anime best left unspoken of.) Its main offenses being poor writing/planning as supposedly major characters go unused and a female protagonist who is a COMPLETE. IDIOT. in a not-funny sense.
