Okay, what's the traditional high school romance anime this season? I'm having trouble picking it out from the vague summary descriptions I've seen elsewhere, lol
 
A couple would fit that description. Yosuga no Sora would possibly be the best fit.

But that'll probably end up with Twincest end anyway. MM! or Fortune Arterial maybe? There's still Amagami SS from last season too.

Twincest? The only kind of incest anime I have seen is Kiss x Sis but thats not real incest :/

Hmmmm, there are a few I'll throw out there that fit your normal criteria (romance, no special powers)
Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai - Not really romance, but it has a lot of Otaku vs. Society things going, AND its not just people standing around talking about their day [coughluckystarcough]
Yosuga no Sora - OP by eufonius, its a harem-ish anime, based off an eroge, though it has incest and takes advantage of the no-censors on the station its airing on. I'm expecting something out of it.
Kami Nomi zo Shiru Sekai (The world god only knows) - This is probably the closest you can get to High School Romance this season. It has a small supernatural element to it, but that's really only to move the plot. Basic plot: Protagonist is an expert in eroge. One day he receives a request to "catch" girls. Guy has to go through romance sequences with each of the girls in order to collect loose souls inside girls' hearts. The easiest way to do such is to have the girl fall in love with you. Despite how it sounds, the first episode's story was surprisingly feelgood from what I had thought it would be. Music is also really fitting for the scenes. Take a try at it.
 
bah, Nodoka beat Shana....

Nyeh, I mention it because first thing people thing when they hear "Otaku Girl" and "Slice of Life" is Lucky Star
 
LS? I thought I liked it during the first couple of episodes, then it started getting a little stupid to me. I did manage to finish it, but it certainly wasn't what I call a great anime. The last couple of episodes where good, though. MY OPINION

Oh.

Well, anyone seen Myself;Yourself? I'm on episode 7 right now, its turning out to be pretty good.
 
Yeah, I watched it, but it was slow to me. I am pretty sure there was something that disturbed me in it. Might re-watch it someday, though.

Yes, I've seen it. It strays a bit away from the romance track in later episodes, but it's still a good series nonetheless.

Don't drop it regardless of any similarities it may have to School Days. It doesn't end in that manner, thank goodness.

What would you rate? Have you seen True Tears or 5cmps? How would you compare them to it?
 
Myself;Yourself was pretty good for the most part. I do think that the concept was better than the execution of the show unfortunately. I rated it 7/10.

And as you're asking about 5CMPS and True tears, well i rate both of these ahead of it by a fair bit actually. They're quite different so it's hard to make a direct comparison though.

I've never seen School Days before o.o
Is it really that bad?
 
Rating? Mm..roughly 7/10. I am just starting to watch True Tears and it's going great so far. That male lead annoys me a little. And 5 centimeters per second was probably the best romance anime [movie] I watched up till now; it actually made me cry in some scenes.

TT and 5cps focus more on the romantic 'ongoings' of the characters and you can tell more feeling were put into them. M;Y had a nice plot, brought up some past memories, but kind of failed in the romance aspect. AGAIN MY OPINION

School Days was..weird?

Oh.
What was so bad about School Days tho? I always hear about people hating it o.o
 
School Days is;

Typical romance followed by a guy turning into a jerk and then a hellawtf ending and a nice boat.

I didn't hate it but i think it is one of the very few anime where you struggle to like any of the characters.
