This list of dubbed anime contains the 20 best dubbed romance anime that have been released from the past decade to 2022. This list is updated regularly, so make sure to revisit this page if you want to see the most recent entries. Here are our top 20 picks.
20. Snow White with the Red Hair
No, you don’t find the seven dwarves here, but you find a charming love story between a poor village girl and a rich prince. First, the girl is captured by an evil prince who has a really cruel face but along comes the overpowered warrior who decides enough is enough and punches the evil guy in the face.
But all jokes aside, Snow White with the Red Hair is one of the best fairy tale romance shows I watched. It doesn’t have anything innovative; it just plays its tropes really well.
Genre – Fantasy, Romance, Shoujo
Season – 2(24 Ep.)
19. Nodame Cantabile
Finally, we have a music anime that doesn’t end on a sad note. This time we have our guy playing the violin and the girl playing the piano and as soon as they catch each other’s music, it becomes one of those love at first sight scenarios.
This also has some nice drama and tension, plus this is one of those girls obsessed with the guy type of stories, so expect some Mikasa levels of simping.
Genre – Comedy, Romance, Slice of Life
Season – 3(45 Ep.)
18. Shikimori’s Not Just a Cutie
This is an anime that is currently airing and it’s mostly about an overprotective girlfriend and a sweet innocent boy who loves the sadistic side of his girlfriend.

16. Tonikawa: Over the Moon For You

15. Ouran High School Host Club
Ever heard of the genre called a reverse harem. It’s where more than one guy falls in love with the girl and Ouran is one of those stories. The anime follows the adventures of Haruhi Fujioka, who accidentally breaks a vase in the host club room and later joins the club in order to repay the debt.
The host club is a boy’s club that serves as enjoyment for the girls in the school, and it is filled with characters of bizarre and weird personalities that you’ll immediately fall in love with.

I know the title has the word comedy in it, but it is the story about how our main character Hachiman slowly opens up to the people around him while also forcing them to change along with him.
