The 10 Worst Romance Anime, Ranked
Romance is one of the anime universe’s most loved genres. The warmth of first love, the emotions attached to heartfelt intimacy, and the feeling that love conquers are all the remnants of a good romance anime. However, if it’s based in a high school and has a dramatic love triangle, it doesn’t always mean it’s a good love story.
