Trivia
- While directly translated as "The Moon is Beautiful", the phrase "Tsuki ga Kirei Desu ne." (月が綺麗ですね。?, lit. "The Moon is Beautiful, Isn't it?") is a famous Japanese way to say "I love you". The phrase was translated by Meiji-era novelist and teacher Natsume Sōseki since he believed that two people in love do not need direct words to convey their feelings

I was just like you. I hit ending and was so disappointed. I don't ever watch EDs so I immediately stopped the episode. Everyone on Reddit was talking about how good the ending was and I just didn't get it. Went back and watched to see I missed the real ending. I too was left with wanting more. I also recommend Amagami SS

I don't ever watch EDs
You're miss on a whole world of greatness
Tsuki Ga Kirei(that's the name of the ED lol) in particular is especially amazing.
(shamelessly slightly off topic)Joshiraku's ED is one I've been hooked onto recently

The only anime that I can think of that has the "same ending" like Tsuki ga Kirei is CLANNAD.
It's probably the only anime that I have watched that has vastly explored the question "So... what happens after they start dating? What happens in their daily lives after that?"

Just rewatch Tsuki ga Kirei, that's what I did...

Can't see your MAL on mobile, but Clannad and Amagami SS. The sequels to both make it worth it. You can't skip their prequels BTW, some people think you can.

Clannad is the closest thing to Tsuki ga Kirei in terms of quality and feel and FEELZ... ALL THEM FEELZ.
hold me...

Just checked my list and added Amagami. Also Clannad is a good example of why my ratings should be ignored. I had it dropped 1 episode in at a 4. I think it was mainly due to the art, (watching Clannad after toradora as someone completely new to anime was like a slap to the balls) but I have come to be more accepting of less than "good" art styles in anime.

At work so I can't open MAL, but Orange is quite a good one. I didn't watch the anime for this - I own the entire manga, but you do get a full closure ending (not like TgK where they start dating early and go on to a bit more)
Golden Time is another one where you see a bit more of the Male/Female protagonist's relationship more so than shoujo manga where it takes an entire season for them to hold hands. It's by the same author as Toradora if you ever watched that.

Golden Time is a train wreck. How is that happy?

Read it and it was easily one of the best things I have ever read. Thanks a ton for that suggestion!

My vanilla romance anime recommendation is Rec. TgK was better but I'm closer to the Rec age group so it appeals more to me.

Rewatching the first episode as you commented!
level 1
I agree with everyone who recommends Clannad. I just finished it, and it rivals tsuki ga kirei as a romance but is several magnitudes higher in feels.
A more comfy romance that shows a couple as they grow up would be itazura na kiss.

Had it in my ptw, but it is now high priority! Thanks for the suggestion.
