Ah, high school is a place with sprout hormones floating in the air. Because we are all doing puberty navigation. High school is the place where most people experience their first love or infatuation, and it is the perfect background for animation love stories.
People like us who watch high school romantic animation can also experience the moment of memory for the same reason, which reminds us of our initial love experience. The romantic cartoons on this list will certainly do so, and they will surely touch your heart.
- I want to eat your pancreas
I think your pancreas is honest and thought-provoking. All animation about death should strive for this. This cartoon tells the story of a quiet hero, whose name is unknown until the end of the film. As a self proclaimed heretical hermit, he tried to isolate himself from the rest of the world in class.
One day, he found a diary, entitled “Living in Death”, on the floor of the waiting room in the hospital. After picking up the microphone, he met Sakura, a girl in his class. She was afraid that her friends would look at her differently, so she told him the secret of her pain, which only he knew.
The movie about a dying girl has become quite old-fashioned, but “I want to eat your pancreas” is still heartbreaking.
The movie about a dying girl has become quite old-fashioned, but “I want to eat your pancreas” is still heartbreaking. Cherry blossoms are not perfect. Her behavior reflects a person’s loss and fear, but she should bravely face and maintain unity.
This film is not without faults. The outcome was somewhat hasty and poorly implemented. But although the plot is old-fashioned, I was surprised by the authenticity and type of these characters. I want to eat your pancreas, which reminds me of April’s lies and Nicholas Sparks’s “memorable walk”. If you want to cry, just watch this movie.

- ReLife Corporation
Many high school romantic novels use common metaphors or similar formulas, but “life” adopts this type uniquely. The combination of science fiction, life fragments and romantic factors creates this elegant and fast-paced adventure.
This cartoon tells about Kaizaki, a 27 year old part-time student in a convenience store, who was bullied by a female colleague and left his job. He was embarrassed by the fact that his friends and parents had lied and could not find a new job.
Technically, he is 10 years older than his classmates, so he can’t fall in love.
One day, an entrepreneur approached Kaizaki and recommended a list of famous companies. But he must first participate in the ReLife experiment to prove his value and re learn a year of high school life. To this end, he took experimental drugs to restore his body to the state of 17 years old. In the whole experiment process, he must do well in his own learning, help people around him, and realize his own value.
Technically, he is 10 years older than his classmates, so he can’t fall in love. More importantly, in another year, he will be erased from the memory of his classmates. This broke Kaizaki’s heart, because he found that he had close relationships with his friends. These include Hishiro, a girl with social incompetence. He swore to help her make friends.

- Clinad: After the story
Clyde: “After the story” tells the story of Tomoya and Luo reporter entering the danger period of adulthood. Technically, “after the story” is the second season of the animation. Because of its compact plot and mature theme, it rarely appears in cartoons.
“Kleiner” itself is a great animation, but “Kleiner: After the Story” is a place where things become interesting” After the Story tells the real problems that most couples will eventually face. Challenges include finding a job, raising a family, coping with losses, and forgiving neglectful parents. In addition, the story is very profound. We rarely see couples who have children after graduating from high school.
But that’s not all. The science fiction transformation you will never see brings this cartoon to a perfect ending. If you want to cry bitterly, please open the “After Conversation” and prepare a box of tissues.

“Orange” is one of the warmest high school romantic cartoons I have ever seen, including elements of time travel, love and parallel world. Based on the comics of the same name, “Orange” has won enough praise to ensure the shooting of live action films.
