A solid, definitive ending to a solid series that sets the bar for what harem romance anime can be.
The Quintessential Quintuplets Movie
The Quintessential Quintuplets ∬ (Season 2)
The same excellent caliber as the first season, with many things coming to fruition. As such, things get a bit dicey and spicy, but with great character development.
The Quintessential Quintuplets (Season 1)
A surprisingly earnest, interesting, and very enjoyable piece that sets the bar for harem anime.
Fruits Basket (2019) – 1st Season
A more intentional, palatable remake than the original. Characters get a bit more depth and the story as a whole is treated with a bit more respect.
I Can’t Understand What My Husband is Saying
Like most short pieces, it's not phenomenal but it's short enough that it's not a waste of time. Hits its groove after a few episodes.
Horimiya
A refreshingly mature high school romcom with some solid substance and intricate characters.
Fruits Basket (2001)
While definitely an "Early 2000's shojo anime" there is a lot here that really endures (and endears) that makes it worthwhile as more than just an important contextual piece, but an excellent exploration of growth through trauma.
In/Spectre
An interesting mystery and exploration of truth with strong classically Japanese cultural spirits, albeit with somewhat shallow and annoying characters at times.
Words Bubble Up Like Soda Pop
A wholesome, feel-good, low-stress adorable piece that channels the essence of teenage summer.
My Dress-Up Darling
An excellently executed delight with fantastic characters, warm fuzzies, and a fascinating dive into the cosplay hobby.
