Watching Romance Anime Alone on Valentine's Day: Is It Enjoyment or Self-Torture?

Machine-translated from Traditional Chinese

Valentine's Day is here again. Since I'm not dating anyone, I decided to stay home and binge-watch 'Your Lie in April'. But who knew I'd cry so much by the end that I totally broke down... Is this choice ultimately enjoyment or self-torture? 😂

But honestly, the emotional portrayal in anime is sometimes more moving than reality. Do you guys deliberately watch romance anime on Valentine's Day? Or do you instead avoid it?

My choice is Laid-Back Camp—no romance at all but super healing; Valentine's Day alone is also great.

I choose to watch "Tsurezure Children"! It's the super sweet kind that makes you giggle even when watching it alone. Pure enjoyment!

I'm even more of a masochist... I watched "5 Centimeters per Second" on Valentine's Day. After finishing it, I felt completely hollow. Makoto Shinkai, you win.

I watched "Your Lie in April" on Valentine's Day... why did I do that to myself? 😂 I cried through a whole box of tissues.

Yuri recommender reporting for duty! For Valentine's Day, I recommend watching Bloom Into You; the pure depiction of emotions is truly heart-fluttering.

Tsuredure Children +1! Every couple is so sweet, it's the most perfect choice for this day.

To be honest, 2D romance is sometimes more moving than 3D. At least anime characters won't cheat on you.😂

I rewatch "Toradora!" every Valentine's Day. That Christmas scene still makes my heart flutter every time I watch it.

I have an OST recommendation! The most suitable track for Valentine's Day is "Ushio" (潮鳴り) from CLANNAD; it's so gentle it'll move you to tears.

It's 1 AM and we're still here discussing what anime to watch for Valentine's Day... we really are something 😂 But it doesn't feel too bad having fellow enthusiasts to keep me company.

Watching romance anime alone is a joy! You don't have to cater to anyone else's taste; you can cry when you want to cry, and laugh when you want to laugh. Long live freedom.
