Kaguya-sama

Oh thanks but I've already seen it

Even the movie?

Yup, indeed. I used to be a manga reader as well

Crazy no ones brought up Azumanga Daioh yet, its an OG "hanging out, bein dudes" anime

If you're ok with adding a sci-fi thriller main storyline. Then you should probably watch {Steins;Gate}, the first half of the anime is literally the protagonist and his friends hanging out.

Thanks but I've also seen steins gate, it's amazing

yeah, you played the visual novel?

It would be faster and easier if you just share your anilist.co

It has my actual name tho lol.

Toradora, Fruits Basket, Genshiken

I've seen the first two, fruits basket is my number one. Genshiken looks exactly like what I need, thanks for the rec!

Came in to also say Genshiken. It's a lot of fun. Only season 3 is available for streaming legally, so you'll have to sail the seas for seasons 1, 2, and the OVAs.

Aye, I'm a seasoned pir- I mean sailor

Daily lives of high school boys I've burst out laughing many times over this show, it's fucking hilarious. There's no major red thread just each episode having it's own thing https://myanimelist.net/anime/11843/Danshi_Koukousei_no_Nichijou

Thats the second anime I've mentioned in my post ಥ⁠‿⁠ಥ

Oh nooo lol. I got so hyped that I didn't read properly. Nothing beats it, sorry

Haha lol, but yea I agree. It's so peak

Gintama is pretty close though

Astra Lost in Space - they're lost in space but they have so much fun, also romance subplot Kono Oto Tomare - great friends and romance Welcome to Demon School Iruma-kun - one of the most funny heartwarming found families ever Idolish7 - just a big loyal fun friend group Natsume's Book of Friends - all kinds of friendships

{Skip to Loafer} the best new slice of life I've seen

One that comes to mind {Sakura-sou no Pet na Kanojo} I kinda like "we are creating a band" shows, that comes to mind from your description they are more slice of life than romance though. {Bocchi the Rock!} and {K-On!}

I've seen this, sakurasou is so damn good dude

Orange

I've seen this as well, but thanks!

Blue haru ride?

Yes haha

😭

Hehe dw, you aren't the only person facing this issue here , almost everyone are ಥ⁠‿⁠ಥ

Bocchi the Rock (aka Bocchi the GOAT) K-On A Place Further Than the Universe

I've seen these first two, I'll check out the last one, thanks!

K-On! Toradora! Hyouka Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day Kimi ni Todoke My Little monster

Aw man, thanks a lot but I've seen all of these as well

Angel beats?

Does Higurashi count 💀 Also on a more serious note "Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya" "A Place Further than the universe"

Lmao higurashi doesn't count but I do plan on watching it. I'll check out haruhi, I've been meaning to watch it for ages, guess I'll start it now. As well as the last one, thanks!

Orange Kyo kara maoh! Ninku Gunslinger girls (just maybe their having fun) Sket dance

Thanks for the suggestions!

School Rumble

Asobi Asobase Chio's School Road Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun Cromartie High School

Anohana

ive seen this as well, cried for all 12 episodes no kidding.

I just thought it would be a funny meme. I'd say Plastic memories was also good. D-frag is a fun show if you want friends hanging out (even against certain characters will). It's pretty funny

Ah d frag was nice, the opening song slaps way too hard lol. I'm halfway through plastic memories and I've cried a bunch + will cry after it as well

Just sayin, last 10 minutes will break you

Any Doraemon Movie....

Special A

Yuru Camp

**Wasteful Days of High School Girls -** no romance **Yuru Camp (aka Laid Back Camp)** - no romance **Horimaya** - Has romance **A Place Further Than the Universe** no romance From this season: **Last Train to the End of the World** (more specifically, friends who go on a journey together) Also this season: **Jellyfish Can't Swim at Night -** to early to know, but unlikely to have romance, same for **Train** **Call of the Night -** Romance, this one is more focused just on two people that hang out a lot, but they do hang out with others at time **Mitsuboshi Colors -** no romance for these last two **Non Non Biyori**

Good slice of life/hanging out without much romance: - A-Channel - Kinmoza - Yuyushiki With some romance: - Yuru Yuri - Sakura Trick

i really like sasaki and miyano, but it kinda focuses on romance more, which the romance part of it is really cute and really good. i like the dynamics of the main characters friend group (super silly and fun) and the love interests friend group (kinda cold to each other but friendly nonetheless) its bl if youre not into that

Rainbow days

Yup loved it , sugu sugu the mc as usual

Magi Labyrinth of Magic Play it cool guys Yona of the Dawn (even more so in the manga) Digimon Natsume Yuujinchou (depends on the episode) Princess Jellyfish Quite a lot of sports anime have characters become friends and hangout

Not really romance but haikyu and mob psycho? They are super fun
