Plan a Date for Valentine's Day with Crunchyroll's Most Romantic Anime

There is just a week to go before Valentine's Day arrives, and that means love is in the air. Whether your taken or not, the holiday is one that asks everyone to dive into their romantic fantasies for just a day or two. This means plenty of people have plans to celebrate, and some might just want to kick back and enjoy a TV marathon as such. So if that describes you, Crunchyroll has some top-tier romances for you to binge next week!

After all, there are few places better to binge anime than Crunchyroll, and it has a number of genres available. When it comes to romance, fans can watch everything from drama to comedies and even slice-of-life. You can even binge from harem series if that's what you are into, and I'll never pass up the chance to recommend Uta no Prince to anyone.
