12 romance anime to watch on Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day!

We hope you and that special someone have nothing but romantic and adorable things in store for this lovely holiday. But once you're all done with dinner dates and exchanging gifts, we think you should tie it all up by watching a romantic anime title or two. After all, we believe there's no such thing as too much love on Valentine's Day!

Without further delay, here are 12 of the best anime to stream on Valentine's Day!

Best romance anime to stream

First and foremost, Fruits Basket is one of our top anime picks to stream on this special day!

Fruits Basket will teach you about every type of love that exists and how you can ensure that your relationships and friendships are healthy and positive. It's also a great anime for you to learn of the ways you can show your loved ones that you cherish before it's too late.

Our protagonist, Tohru Honda, showed her mother, Kyoko, nothing but unconditional love by waiting for her every night, even when Kyoko had no desire to come home. Tohru then showed this same act of love to her new friend (and later, romantic interest) Kyo Sohma, but when she realized that Kyo wasn't as receptive to this act due to his past trauma, she took some steps back until she knew he was ready.

Tohru loves big and loud, which is why she's the perfect person for you to spend time with.

In addition to Fruits Basket, here are 10 anime you should check out:

• Ouran High School Host Club (2006)
• Lovely Complex (2007)
• Kimi ni Todoke - From Me to You (2009)
• Kamisama Hajimemashita (2012)
• given (2019)
• Horimiya (2021)
• Sasaki and Miyano (2022)
• My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999 (2023)
• Skip and Loafer (2023)
• A Sign of Affection (2024)

Last but not least is Tomo-chan is a Girl!, as this anime is perfect for those who are in the friendzone but are soon moving into that romance phase!

Tomo-chan is a tomboy who is rough and tough. But underneath that hard exterior is an inexperienced young girl who wants to fall in love with her best friend, Jun. Jun is just as experienced, having never really fallen in love nor knowing what signs to look for when someone does have a crush, so all of Tomo-chan's efforts go unnoticed or, sometimes, even get shut down completely.

Worst of all, Jun doesn't even see Tomo-chan as a girl!

Thankfully, with a little bit of courage and the support of her very good friends, Tomo-chan continues to strive to get her romantic feelings through Jun's head and won't stop until she says everything on her chest. Perhaps you can relate!

See all this and more in the official trailer for Tomo-chan is a Girl! below!

Hopefully, this anime gives you and your friend the push you need to enter the next stage of your relationship! If Tomo-chan and Jun can do it, you certainly can, too!

Undoubtedly, every single anime in this list will leave you feeling lovey-dovey, so be sure to head over to Crunchyroll to stream all these titles for Valentine's Day!
