In the Anime Romantic, sometimes they work to give you drama and tension, but most of the time they just stretch the story, frustrate the fans and make us end up screaming “Decide!” Love triangles not to the liking of everyone, there are people who love them, but for many they ruin everything.
Here we bring you 10 romantic animes that would have been much better without those unnecessary tangles.
10. Anime: Inuyasha
Between Kagome, Kikyo and inuyasha A drama was put together that was longer than the same series. We all knew where things were going, but the tug of war made many want to skip entire chapters.
9. Anime: Nisekoi
This anime literally lived on the love triangle, but they stretched it so much that it ended up being a vicious circle. The worst: Several fans got off the ship because it never seemed to move.
8. Anime: School Days
Here the triangle was not annoying, it was toxic to legendary levels. Makoto, Kotonoha and Sekai They created absolute chaos. Yes, it became an infamous classic, but let’s be honest: it would have been more interesting to see a well-run romantic story than a festival of betrayals.
7. Fruits Basket
Tohru, Yuki and Kyo They made us choose “team” as if it were a soccer world cup. The problem is that, instead of adding, the triangle detracted from a story that was already shimmering with its themes of trauma and overcoming.
6. Kimi Ni Todoke
Sawako and Kazehaya They were so tender that those love rivals looked like a stone in the shoe. No one needed more drama in a romance that already melted us with tenderness.
5. Golden Time
Banri He had enough of his memories erased enough, why put a triangle on it? The anime had bright moments, but the love entanglement ended up feeling like extra filler.
4. Rent-a-girlfriend
This anime is already an emotional chaos on its own, but with the love triangle it became a frustrating sport. Was it necessary to further complicate a protagonist who was already desperate by nature?
3. My Teen Romantic Comedy Snafu (Oregairu)
The triangle between Hachiman, Yukino and Yui He divided the fans into sides as if it were a civil war. The worst thing is that the anime had an incredible focus on personal growth and loneliness, but the love entanglement overshadowed it at times.
2. Your Lie in April
History already had us crying with the disease of Kaori and the fight of Kousei. The love triangle was like putting salt on the wound. Unnecessary drama in an anime that was already devastating by itself.
1. Science Fell in Love, So I Tried to Prove It
The grace of this anime was to see how science ruined and at the same time made adorable, a story of romance. The love triangle was so out of place that it seemed like a lab mistake.
These love triangles did not completely ruin anime, some are jewels, but without them they would have been more direct, more natural and, above all, much less desperate.
