10. Dance with Devils

As a diligent student, Ritsuka Tachibana is overly shocked when she gets summoned by the student council. The members of the council – the handsome Rem, Urie, Shiki and Mage – depict Ritsuka as a troublemaker, and begin to interrogate her, but soon Ritsuka realizes that there's something more they wish to achieve. One thing leads to the other, and Ritsuka's life become a mess, as she finds herself dealing with vampires and devils; both these two groups are looking for the “Grimoire”, an item that can give someone the power to rule the world...

Dance with Devils is a reverse-harem where our protagonist gets courted by four handsome guys. It's pointless to say where the supernatural parts lie in this show: it revolves around otherworldly creatures such as devils and vampires, who look for an item to help them rule the entire world. The romance part, on the other hand, lies in the effort that the four handsome guys put into catching Ritsuka's attention, each of them having feelings toward her.

There, Chise begins her path to become the magus' apprentice and future bride.

Mahoutsukai no Yome is a super popular supernatural romance anime, and it is a shounen.

That's why she decides to join Lawrence as he travels around the countryside, using her abilities in order to help him with his job as a merchant.

Ookami to Koushinryou is a wonderful supernatural romance and seinen anime.

There's a golden rule that must be respected, though: Hotaru absolutely mustn’t touch Gin, or he'll disappear for good.

A lot of patterns characterize romance anime. You can find a boy who falls in love at first sight with a beautiful and shy girl, you can find a girl who can't admit her feelings for a boy but keeps on acting flustered in front of him, or yet both characters fall in love with each other, but the road to confess their feelings becomes long and hard to face. In other romance anime, love remains one sided, or ends badly. It can even happen that it's a feeling never expressed with words, and yet it's there and you can feel it. Whichever pattern a romance anime has, the unvaried thing combining all of them is the struggle and the efforts that each character goes through in the name of love. Romance anime are good, but when you add a bit of supernatural to the picture, things can get very interesting. So if you like romance anime, but prefer non-conventional ones, this list is meant to recommend you 10 of the best we thought were worth a mention!

10. The Irregular at Magic High School (Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei)

  • Episodes: 26
  • Aired: April 2014 – September 2014

Let's start with this wonderful story revolving around Tatsuya Shiba and Miyuki Shiba, two siblings who just entered the best high school for magicians: The First High School. Miyuki, who is talented and skilled at using magic, ended up attending the First Course, where students are known as “bloom”. Tatsuya, whose magic skills are not so good, ended up in the Second Course. Second Course's students are called “weed”, an implicit way to say that is a course for the worst student. After these premises, don't expect a clumsy protagonist, nor a self-deprecating one. Tatsuya, in spite being a “weed”, will show everyone his worth, completely changing the caste system of the school, and gaining admiration and consent.

The supernatural part, in this anime, is given by the magic. In Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei's world, magic has developed so much so that it became a science. Within this background, the romance part is mostly all up to Tatsuya's sister, Miyuki. She is in love with his brother, and it's a kind of love resulting in a deep admiration towards all what Tatsuya does. We can understand why, though: he is a “weed”, but through his actions, he manages to gain approval even among the “bloom” students. Miyuki loves him and keeps on showing her love in every way, like for example when someone belittles Tatsuya and she gets angry in his place, or in the way she defends him. She is on cloud nine whenever someone asks her about his brother, and gets jealous when Tatsuya interacts with other girls. Aside from Miyuki, to complete the romance frame, there are other characters finding love as well.


9. Kamigami no Asobi ~ Ludere Deorum ~

  • Episodes: 12
  • Aired: April 2014 – June 2014

Let's go on with a story revolving around six beautiful gods. Protagonist of this story is Yui Kusanagi, a high school girl who wakes up in a strange, yet beautiful school, in a place she doesn't know, and suddenly is summoned by... Zeus. Yes, Zeus explains her the situation, and why she is there: since these six gods don't know what love means, act selfishly, or did something bad in the past, Yui’s task is to teach them what love is. This is how the adventure for the cute Yui starts! An experience that will change her life, and will teach her what even she didn't know about love.

Is there a need to mention where the supernatural part lies? We're talking about a high school where gods attend lessons! They can even switch to their true god form, and you will see their powers and the way they deal with what they are. Yui has to teach them how to love, but it's difficult. Aside from Apollon and Balder, who instantly are infatuated by Yui, the other four gods are obstinate and don't want to befriend anyone. Yui will go through a lot of hardships, and slowly but surely, in the end she will manage to teach them the importance of creating bonds with others, and even how to face the scary things from the past. When the course ends, and everyone gets a degree, it's time to say “goodbye”, and that's when Yui will understand that she taught them love, while love was being taught to her!


8. Loveless

  • Episodes: 12
  • Aired: April 2005 – June 2005

Here we have our 8th position, with a delicate and deep anime that can make you cry. Aoyagi Ritsuka, a twelve-year-old boy, is in a very dark period of his life: his brother, Seimei, has been killed and the only family member remaining is an insane mother to deal with. It's when he meets Agatsumi Soubi, that Ritsuka's life changes. Soubi is a mysterious twenty-year-old guy who introduces Ritsuka to the world of fighters and sacrifices: two people with the same name fight together, one is the “fighter” and the other one is the “sacrifice”. Meaning one fights, while the other one protects. As he gets to know Soubi day after day, Ritsuka discovers that he and his dead brother had the same name – Beloved – and fought together. Ritsuka can't shake the feeling that Soubi knows more about his brother's past, while Soubi needs help to discover what actually happened to Seimei. That's why when Soubi asks Ritsuka to become his “sacrifice”, even though they have a different name – Ritsuka's name is Loveless – Ritsuka accepts.

This touching anime explores deeply the meaning of “love”, meant in all its aspects, and has a supernatural part given by the super-power that every couple develops. Ritsuka is at a difficult stage of his life, as his brother's killed. Soubi faced the death of his beloved comrade. As the two meet and decide to fight together, we slowly discover how much Soubi loved and admired Seimei, and how much he struggles to go on. While Ritsuka, on the other side, tries day after day to deal with his feelings changing. He knows that Soubi belonged to Seimei, but he feels something for him and it's difficult to accept it. Soubi, instead, although he cannot forget Seimei, starts to see in Ritsuka something that reminds him of Seimei. From the loss, a terrible tragedy that involved both, a beautiful feeling blossoms. The final of this anime remains open, as the manga keeps on going, but if you are searching for a good, non-conventional, supernatural, romance anime, this is just the right choice!


7. The Future Diary (Mirai Nikki)

  • Episodes: 26
  • Aired: October 2011 – April 2012

Let's move on to the 7th position with a twisted yet amazing story revolving around a lonely boy whose name is Yukiteru Amano. He isn't popular, nor funny. Nothing is peculiar about him, or worth saying. In his loneliness, he writes a diary on his phone, and speaks to his imaginary friends: Deus Ex Machina – the God of time and space – and his servant called Murmur. The situation changes when, one day, Yukiteru discovers that his phone is actually a future diary. He, and other eleven future diary's holders, are summoned by Deus Ex Machina, who actually exists, and a deadly game begins. The eleven diary holders will have to kill each other, and the winner will become the new god of space and time! When in this messy situation, Yukiteru meets Yuno Gasai, things get even more interesting!

Yuno Gasai is a “yandere”. You can learn more about yandere here (https://honeysanime.com/what-is-yandere-i-broke-your-legs-so-i-can-nurse-you-back-to-health-isnt-my-love-wonderful-2/). To Yuno, Yukiteru is an amazing boy. She sees in him what anyone else can't see. The feelings she has for him are so strong that she will be willing to do crazy things, in order to protect him and guarantee him the victory. She will become his shield, and will fight putting her life on the front line, while Yukiteru will do the only thing he can do: he will cry and hide behind her.

This anime can keep you glued to the screen, with baited breath. The supernatural part is interesting as it shows time and space alterations, and the romance is all up to Yuno and his obsession for Yukiteru. Furthermore, Yuno is a character full of mystery, and it's impossible not to wonder what her true colors are. You will constantly have opposing feelings towards her: does she really love Yukiteru? Why is she doing this? Is she hiding something? Until the epic, unexpected ending, that will leave you with your mouth wide open!


6. Shakugan no Shana

  • Episodes: 24
  • Aired: October 2005 – March 2006

Yuuji Sakai is just your average high school boy with normal friends. His life is just a normal life, with nothing really interesting happening, as the days go by. That is, before his daily routine is destroyed by something that he would have never expected! One day, he and other people, are assaulted by a monster – Denizen – who can turn people into “torches” before finishing them off. When everything seems lost and he is about to give up hope, someone appears to save him. His savior is a mysterious girl with eyes and hair as red as fire, who manages to push the monster away with her sword! Yuuji doesn't know that this is just the beginning of a nightmare. In fact, the girl – Shana – will reveal to him a terrible truth: he is already dead and the life he is living is just fiction, and his time is running out!

In this anime, romance and supernatural parts coexist perfectly. Shana fights against the Denizens and the other enemies with her magical sword, and helps and rescues Yuuji. She sticks to her mission loyally. Even though she acts all careless and is hot-tempered, and even though she seems not to stand Yuuji and his attachment to a life he has already lost, you can clearly understand she is in love with him. He, on the other side, seems incapable to understand a girl's feelings. Another important character in this anime is Kazumi Yoshida. She is in love with Yuuji, and struggles to try not to lose her beloved person, so much so that she will be willing to face a world she doesn't belong to, just to shorten the distance that has grown between them!


5. Inu x Boku Secret Service (Inu x Boku SS)

  • Episodes: 12
  • Aired: January 2012 – March 2012

He wants to show her his gratitude, and his has nothing to do with the girl's family, nor with obligations...

Both of them, year after year, have managed to create their own defenses. Ririchiyo becoming hot-tempered and careless, Miketsukami hiding behind a fake smile. This dramatic setting, is counterbalanced with gags and other characters who are funny and easygoing.

Nevertheless, the most interesting thing, is the bond that will blossom between Miketsukami and Ririchiyo. Their relationship will cure their inner wounds, and they will slowly grow fond of each other. Well, don't you agree it deserves this 5th position?

Inori is a dramatic character, almost impossible to figure out. Nevertheless, Shuu will manage to find a place in her heart, and she will do the impossible to protect him, going as far as to do the greatest sacrifice. As for the supernatural part, this anime is full of action moments, where Shuu will use his powers and will extract every kind of weapon from his friend’s bodies.

In spite of the premises, that make this story look like a crazy comedy out of the ordinary, this anime will shake and touch you deeply. Love, in this anime, is treated in all its aspects. Shimao loved Rokka so much so that he couldn't leave her, even though he is gone. Hazuki is in love with Rokka, and will have to compete with a person who is physically gone, but whose spirit is still there, and Rokka... Rokka is as sweet as honey. She is a woman who lost her husband due to a bad illness, and yet she managed to keep herself together. She is still grieving, so she has contrasting feelings towards Hazuki, because she feels like betraying Shimao. This anime tells an important thing; love is stronger than anything. Rokka realizes that even though it doesn't feel right, it's possible to move on after a loss; Hazuki will learn that he cannot be a substitute for Shimao, so it's useless to compete; and Shimao...
