The Greatest Romantic Comedy Anime?

(1/12) > >>

geoffreak:
I just want everyone's opinion on what they think the best romantic comedy anime out there is.

Personally, I'm watching Itazura na Kiss right now and I absolutely love it (no pun intended). It is by far one of the best romantic comedies I've seen thus far, and ranks up there in my favorite anime. I've seen a number of anime and they all seem to have a similar setup and storyline, but this is one of the first I've seen of its kind.

I just finished DLing that one, I'm excited to watch.

Best romantic comedy that I've seen?
Midori no Hibi
Great characters, great plot, great emotional variety.

Clannad is a close 2nd...

geoffreak:
Midori no Hibi was pretty good, but it just doesn't have the "epic romantic comedy" feel to it. I'm still in the middle of Clannad and thinking "meh".

Gnabgib:
Clannad was kinda disappointing to me as well, though not terrible.  Kanon is one of my favorites and Air was good, but Clannad just didn't do much for me.

Nodame Cantabile was good and probably will get some mentions.  Honey and Clover would probably be my choice except that I'm not sure it'd really be classified as a romantic comedy.  It certainly has romance and comedy, but its more of a coming of age story I think.  So Kare Kano probably gets my vote, despite the last 6 or so eps being less than spectacular.

I'm also watching Itazura na Kiss atm, and its good.  Only about 5 eps into it though so don't have a good idea of where it ranks.

geoffreak:
I also have to second your comment of Kare Kano. It started out fairly decent, but by the end I realized that I had just wasted several hours of my life. Nodame Cantabile and Honey and Clover are on my watch list atm.

Another anime that hasn't been mentioned yet is Lovely Complex. I watched the first couple of episodes, but the art is really hard to watch and distracts from the story. I may have to come back and do a proper watching of the series at some point.
