10 Best Romance Anime With The Forbidden Love Trope

Some couples get their happy ending while others only get longing. Romeo x Juliet, 86, and Beastars are among the best anime with forbidden love.

Yor and Loid entered into a contractual marriage for personal gains. Both of them are accomplished individuals in their respective fields, but when it comes to intimacy, they’re as dense as they come. Despite having experience, Loid is constrained to simply disguise it as part of the “mission” when it comes to relationships, and Yor has none. Although the anime isn’t primarily about their romance, their tension and chemistry are enjoyable.

The viewers have been treated with plenty of Yor and Loid “moments,” which, even though they had to stage to protect their identities, always end up bringing them closer. While it's difficult to have an honest relationship because of their professional nature, the fans wouldn’t mind if they became a couple out of their Forger family roles.

An anime about a tomboy wanting her childhood best friend to notice her outside of their usual “bro” dynamic could’ve easily fallen victim to clichés. However, Tomo and Jun’s relationship turns the trope around for the better. Tomo is a confident and strong girl who wants her childhood friend to think of her as a love interest. At first, she thinks the only way to achieve it is to embrace her feminine side. However, she soon realizes that Jun has always liked the Tomo he grew up with.

Even though the couple faces their fair share of drama in their journey toward romance, the key takeaway that makes them a good couple is their acceptance of one another. While Tomo has developed a crush on Jun, he sees her in a more inspirational light and aspires to be as physically strong and active as her. All in all, Tomo and Jun make an exemplary high school couple beating several rom-com clichés with style.

Himuro and Fuyutsuki are a perfect example of “taking it slow until you feel it” trope. The Ice Guy is a unique office romance that, unlike Wotakoi, doesn’t immediately dive into the romance. Even though it's obvious that both Himuro and Fuyutsuki are attracted to each other, neither makes a bold move because of their shy nature. They are an introverted couple who would rather fantasize about each other in their heads than have a grand confession.

However, their respect for each other’s space and the fact that they’re adults makes their romance all the more worthwhile. Their relationship is like seeing a high school love story unravel but with a corporate backdrop, which only works to enhance the wholesomeness even more. Himuro and Fuyutsuki share some of the most adorable moments of 2023, making their couple one of the best to remember.

While it’s evident that Sir Jinshi obviously has feelings for Maomao, which he himself hasn’t comprehended to the full extent, Maomao’s indifference towards his approaches is both hilarious and adorable. As a couple, they suit each other well, complimenting their respective opposite characteristics and undeniable attraction for each other. Jinshi’s care for Maomao and her easing up to his charms are delightful experiences that every romance anime fan should have.

Initially, he resorted to insulting her but gradually understood that she wouldn't exploit him.

Soon, Challe finds himself charmed by Anne’s determination and innocence and becomes increasingly protective of her. Challe and Anne experience a slow-burn romance that becomes stronger every time the duo walks out of a sticky situation. Their love/hate relationship is definitely the highlight of the show.

Even though Skip and Loafer is an anime more about friendship and growth than particularly romance, it does touch on the genre in the best way. Shima and Mitsumi’s relationship starts from a good friendship that is not only a source of aspiration for Mitsumi but also her introduction to feelings she never had before. Despite coming from a very grounded and cozy background, Mitsumi is able to charm Shima, who is every girl’s dream boy in their high school. The beauty of their relationship is in the understanding they have about each other’s circumstances.

They never push one another into prioritizing their new budding friendship or even force drama into their healthy dynamics. Even when Mitsumi starts to think that she might have a crush on Shima, she chooses not to put her feelings in his face; instead, she goes with the flow. Shima and Mitsumi’s relationship is devoured of overused tropes and is the ideal for a perfect high school relationship.

10 Best Romance Anime That Aren't Shojo

Despite their violent themes, anime like Inuyasha and Berserk have tons of romance that fans swoon over.

While Horimiya primarily relies on the “popular girl falling for the unpopular guy” trope, it does so with better emotional impact and wholesomeness. Hori and Miyamura are opposites in every way, but their honesty and vulnerability create chemistry between them. Their relationship is the kind that brings out the best in people. With Miyamura, Hori learned to rely on others and let herself experience emotions in which she’s not the one in control.

On the other hand, being a classic introvert, Miyamura learned to open up to the right person and even publically acknowledge it. In Horimiya: The Missing Pieces, the fans are treated to small yet meaningful events that lead up to the strengthening of the duo’s romance. The couple highlights the importance of a low-maintenance relationship and how changing each other is never the right approach for a lasting bond.
