Read comments about:
- Sora yori mo Tooi Basho (A Place Further than the Universe). It's aimed at people who feel stuck in just about any aspect of life and offers some ideas on how to move forward. Without romanticism, with a positive message and good comedy. You'll cry a little, but you'll feel better afterwards. Overall, it's cathartic. Additionally, it was named Anime of the Year by r/anime in 2018 and one of the best international shows by the New York Times in the same year. It also won Japan's best screenplay award that year.
- Grand Blue, KonoSuba! and Saiki K , what a good laugh I had with these series.
- Non Non Biyori, Is the Order a Rabbit?, Laid-Back Camp, Girls Last Tour, Girls und Panzer.
- Try watching Sousou no Frieren .
- Aria: the Animation . It's like floating on a peaceful gondola ride. Plus, there are cats. No stress, no anguish, no worries.”
- Sangatsu no Lion.
However, they continued to indicate other animes:
- Gintama , lots of laughs and for a long time I couldn't think about anything other than Strawberry Milk .
- I'm not sure it works on breakups, but a very underrated series called Princess Principal is very different and is my favorite steampunk anime.
- How Heavy Are the Dumbbells You Lift?. It's time to go to the gym, lifting heavy things makes the sad voices disappear.
- Bungo Stray Dogs . A lot of handsome and dynamic guys to forget about him for a while.
- Great Teacher Onizuka . Great comedy anime that also teaches a lot about overcoming difficult times. It's also quite long and will definitely keep you entertained for a while at least.
- It's not about breakups, but Romantic Killer is fun.
- School Days . The only romance anime where the damned get what they deserve.
- Welcome to the NHK! It's great, also for people who are stuck in their lives.
- Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid for something incredibly cute.
- One Punch Man and Vinland Saga are two good non-romantic plots for different reasons.
Finally, it's time to find out if you've ever recommended anime for people who have ended a relationship.
