Rom-coms with actual relationship progression, not just endless will-they-won't-they!

I love a good rom-com, but I'm tired of series where the main couple just never gets together. Are there any great anime rom-coms where the characters actually start dating and you get to see their relationship develop? Give me the good stuff!

Horimiya is a top-tier choice for this! They get together pretty early, and the rest of the show is about their relationship and supporting characters. So wholesome! 🥰

Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku! The main couple is already dating from episode one, and it's super relatable for any adult otaku. Very funny and sweet.

Tonikawa: Over the Moon for You. They get married in episode 1! It's pure fluff and domestic bliss. If you want progression, this is it!

For a slightly older one, try Clannad and Clannad After Story. It starts as a typical rom-com but evolves into a full relationship and family story. Be warned, it's a tearjerker!

Kaguya-sama: Love Is War eventually gets there! It's a hilarious battle of wits that slowly, but surely, leads to actual progression. Worth the wait!
