12 Anime Couples With The Most Adorable Love Stories
It's time to get in touch with your emotional side, as we're ranking the top romance anime that has ever been made. These shows typically depict two people falling in love; it starts with a crush and the audience watches it blossom from there. Good romance anime highlights all kinds of relationships, from schoolyard crushes and first kisses to adults developing a relationship at work. Sometimes referred to as love anime, these shows can be a little more slow-paced than your typical anime, but that isn't to say they're boring. In fact some of the best romance anime isn't strictly about love, but rather a combination of multiple genres.
In the hit series Inuyasha, the love between Inuyasha and Kagome is strong throughout the series, but it takes a back seat to the fighting and action scenes that really drive the show. The same goes for the popular Eureka 7, where Renton and Eureka fall in love while piloting mechs and fighting the evil United Federation.
#1 Naruto and Hinata (Naruto)
Uzumaki Naruto may not be as bright and promising compared to his rival Sasuke but he's definitely lovable.
He is honest, cheerful, and kind. Naruto will do everything possible to save his friends and fulfill his duties as a ninja of Konoha.
This is probably what made Hinata Hyuga fell for him.
She also treats Naruto as an inspiration to be a better ninja. During Naruto's fight against Pain, Hinata risked her life to help him while confessing how much Naruto means to her.

#3 Shinichi & Ran (Rachel & Jimmy) - Case Closed Aka Detective Conan
They are the greatest couple of all time! Hands down! Their love storyy simply represents all the essence of true love; patience, kindness, and the undeniably deep feelings for each other. No one can match Ran's love for Shinichi for she stays loyal and continues to love him despite the many times (in fact, all the time! ) he bails on her, leave without any remarks, and never seems to be there when she needs him (Cause she doesn't know his Conan ) I especially love Ran's words when Conan asked her if she was scared to jump in the building in one of the movies.
Conan: Ran-neechan are you scared?
RAN: OF COURSE I"M SCARED. BUT SHINICHI, SHINICHI TOLD ME TO WAIT FOR HIM> I HAVE TO LIVE AND WAIT FOR SHINICHI.

There's no argument whether this claim is true or not since there have been many situations in the series where both of them expressed their feelings towards one another.

#12 Asuna and Kirito - Sword Art Online
Unlike other couples, Asuna and Kirito never had an ounce of awkwardness between them. Because of the situation they were in, where either one of them could die, they didn't waste any time being awkward and fidgety. From fighting side by side, saving each other's lives countless times and their deepening bond as they both struggle to get back into the real world, they came to love each other and figured that it would be stupid to waste any time NOT being together. They both knew they loved each other and got married because of it (in the game I mean) and established their relationship as a couple. But that's not all they are to each other, they're a couple, best friends, each others protectors, saviors. They have each other's backs and try so hard to win the game and get back into the real world so that they can ACTUALLY be together, for real. And once they meet Yui it really is like they're a family, and it's just so cute that I felt like crying every time I saw them together, or when the three of them would reunite after being separated. After more than two years the two of their characters develop so much and learn so much, and honestly when they reunited in the real world I was actually crying tears of joy. Asuna and Kirito's relationship is so much deeper than most, and it's just really beautiful, there's no other way to describe it. And the funny thing is that this epic badass story with its epic badass couple isn't actually a romance anime, not even close, it's main theme is much more serious than some cliche love story that takes place in some random high school, and yet it's couple is a billion times better than ANY couple. Anyone saying that it's not possible, try watching all 25 episodes and THEN try saying that Asuna and Kirito aren't the most epic and amazing and sweet and beautiful couple in the universe.
