The entire idea of blackmail keeps things energizing all through the arrangement and the soundtrack and animation combination in this series is a lot of like Toradora!’s.
Everything in the series resembles an ideal good to beat all.
6. Skip Beat!
What I really feel is that this series is the closest in kind to Toradora! the character’s feeling towards them is the highlight point for me.
The story is about Young high school dropout student Kyouku who is unfortunately broken by her childhood love, Shoutarou, leaving her with a cold and vengeful heart.
Because she is very focused on his career and when she enters in entertainment agency with a single goal to destroy the man who treated her like trash.
With the fierce acting of the female character, the series got more viewers and one more thing that excited me more was the environment is much different than other high schools.

A rom-com that doesn’t into consideration any laws of physics.
There’s something to be said about failing to get used to how the irregular rivalries in this arrangement in a real sense arrive at outlandish statures.
3. Karin
Karin is an uncommon type of vampire. In contrast to her family and her kindred species, she produces blood and experiences misrepresented nosebleeds.
The best way to conquer this abundance of blood she creates is to bite into someone and force the excess into their blood stream, causing them to feel extreme feelings of happiness.
Things are little funnier in this series because of the supernatural elements in the characters give it a tough of the rom-com genre.
2. Golden Time

The story has the same vibe as Toradora because the jam of both the series-based rom-com and the perfect blend of everything is the highlighted key for the series.
Despite this show having more matured viewers it doesn’t mean anything.
So, go grab your seat and watch this.
1. Itazura na Kiss

In the start, their love story begins at a rough pace, on the one side Main female character is innocent, and bubbly but on the other hand the male character is studious and wants to become a doctor.
After all that difference their middle ground made the bridge for them to be together.
I really feel that this series got my attention and it deserves that too.
