Everyone has their own set of moments that they look forward to in a romance anime. For some, it’s seeing the characters have their first kiss and it’s seeing the anime end with a happy ending.
These moments make you feel different emotions. Some, make you weep in joy, nervousness and even excitement. They play with your heartstrings.
Here, are 16 Romance anime moments that pull your heartstrings:
1. Holding Hands
I don’t know why a simple thing as holding hands makes our hearts race. Is it just me or do you guys feel it too?
Anime couples holding hands are often a sign of the intensity of the emotional connection they share and the bond that exists between them.
The two of the most popular hand holding styles in anime are:
(a) The down-facing palm

One of the most standard hand-holding choices among couples. Down-facing palm is one of the most common ways of demonstrating affection, warmth and connection.
(b) Interlocked Fingers

2. A Boy in the Girl’s Room for the First Time

This moment sure gives you butterflies every time you watch it. It might even make you blush to see them walk so closely together.
And if the guy is invited to dry himself in the girl’s house after walking her home, has to be the cherry on top.
4. Kawaii Playful Flirting between the characters

When you’re interested in someone romantically, you flirt with them, which means chatting them up or playfully teasing them. That’s the general gist about flirting.
In anime, a boy flirting with a girl(or vice versa) has to be the cringiest romance anime moment. It causes your toes and fingers to get all curled up.

6. Love Confessions are at the Heart of Romance Anime

One of the things, we look forward to in a romance anime is to see how the main characters confess their feelings to each other. Watching a love confession makes you feel nervous and excited at the same time.
One of the all-time classic anime confessions is the classroom confession. Asking a girl out after school in front of the whole class gets your heart in your mouth.
7. The First Official Date

Once either of the characters has successfully nailed their love confession comes the part that not only the characters but the audience have been waiting for.
The hard part is over when the characters worked up the courage to ask out the person they liked. Now comes the part where you get rewarded for your bravery, you get to spend the whole day with your crush(now your girlfriend) on a date. Just the thought of them hanging out with each other alone is so nerve-racking.
Anime provides a lot of versatility in the types of dates that couples can go on:
- Going to an Amusement Park
- Playing at the Arcade
- Watching the fireworks at the Annual Summer Festival
8. First Kiss
