There are
At times, this is even true with
But there are anime with kissing scenes in these genres and others.
Let’s focus on that in this post, and drill down the list of where it’s most common.
Here they are.
1. The Hidden Dungeon Only I Can Enter
The Hidden Dungeon Only I Can Enter is as cliche as it gets.
The main character is born into a noble family, so already has a little going for him already.
Once he enters an academy, that’s when the
You have to give the MC credit for getting his first “kiss” within the first episode of the anime. He breaks one of the many cliches these genres are filled with.
He makes it look easy and there’s plenty of it.

2. Campione

Campione is one of the first Harem/Ecchi fantasy shows I ever came across. You get kissing within the first episode.
There’s quite a bit of sloppy kissing and all that good stuff if that’s what you want.
Whether you’ll enjoy the entire series is another story. But it’s relevant here and needs to be mentioned.
3. The World God Only Knows
The World God Only Knows is a harem series about Katsuragi Keima. A guy who loves playing dating sims.
He’s not into real
After running into a demon girl called Elsie, he ends up “kissing
He comes across a lot of
In fact, it’s a decent series, cliches aside.

4. Snow White With The Red Hair
Snow White With The Red Hair is a quality
Shirayuki isn’t from a royal bloodline, but she’s hard working, smart, and stands out because of her red hair. And that’s a focus point that kicks off the anime.
There are kissing scenes,
The visuals are nice as well.
5. Date A Live

Date A Live is another harem series that was early for me. One of my first.
The first episode ends on a dramatic note, with Shido’s life hanging in the balance for a moment.
From there, the long and short of it is he kisses
Season 1 is the best, with the 2nd season and beyond dropping in quality for me personally.
Still worth mentioning as it’s relevant here.

It’s about Kagome Higurashi who falls down a well and ends up in a time far into the past.
She meets
This is an important part of the anime’s progress, character development, and more that’s revealed (kissing included).
7. Scum’s Wish

Scum’s Wish feels like a
“Scum” is a good clue in the name of this anime.
Plenty of kissing, even intimacy, and scenes that will make you think, make you cringe, or both.
It’s extreme in its themes.

8. Sword Art Online

Saucy scenes isn’t this anime’s focus. It need no introduction but SAO is about Virtual Reality, MMO’s, and
With a survival aspect in season 1, season 2, and season 3. All with different ways of portraying it.
Don’t expect too much kissing here. But where the
9. Toradora
This anime is about Taiga Aisaka, the palm-top tiger. And Ryuuji Takasu, is a guy who loves cleaning and is wrongly judged for his appearance.
Toradora doesn’t get heavy with romance until later down the line. So you’ve got to “work” your way to it.
There’s a lot of drama involved around this stage, with emotions running high, and plot twists coming out of the floorboards.
If you can get through the first 5 or so episodes, the anime delivers to a high standard and doesn’t disappoint.
10. Darling In The Franxx

The story had no idea where it wanted to go, so you literally get everything from suggestive scenes, kissing scenes, action, drama and the list goes on.
This is at the beginning to a degree, but more so in the later stages. With multiple characters.
Whether it’s satisfying or not depends on you. For me, the anime lost focus after the first half and ended up being a massive disappointment for me.
Still, it’s relevant here.
11. Golden Time

If we’re talking about
Not just for quality, but for
I don’t think you’ll find too many main characters like Kaga Koko (orange hair). She’s a solid protagonist.
The same can’t be said for her partner though, but he serves a purpose.
The level of kissing is moderate but it’ll suit your tastes.
12. Nana

This is a forgotten anime
Nana is even better than Golden Time by miles, and that’s saying a lot because Golden Time is good.
Nana explores the lives of young adults and:
- Romance
- intimate relationships
- Music
- Working hard to live your dreams
You’ll find these and similar concepts. But they’re all connected to the
I’d say it’s the best all-rounder of an anime because it has it all.

13. Sankarea: Undying Love

Sankarea is a
It’s a strange one but it’s surprisingly good.
At least directly. It’s a good anime that goes unnoticed.
The ending is a little disappointing though. Mostly because of the cliffhanger (needs a 2nd season).
14. Kiss x Sis

Kiss x Sis is an anime mentioned on this site quite a bit for different reasons.
It’s an
Not to mention the implied incest of this series.
One stand-out feature though is the amount of kissing scenes. If this is what you want, it doesn’t disappoint.

15. Tonikaku Kawaii
Tonikaku
The anime is about Tsukasa Tsukiyomi, and Nasa. You can call them accidental couples.
The plot focuses on building their relationship, and showing you their journey as they get more comfortable with each other. And learn more about each other.
All In a rom-com setting that just can’t be compared because of its sheer quality and visuals.
16. How To Raise A Boring Girlfriend

Probably the least of what you want is in this anime. But it does happen (kissing).
Saekano, or “How To Raise A Boring Girlfriend” centers around that exact title. Just not in a way you’d think.
A bunch of Otaku, authors, and artists get together to help Tomoya (MC) build a dating sim game.
The anime becomes a lot more than just that.
I added it here because even still – It’s a great anime if

17. Bloom Into You

Bloom Into You is another good series I ran into, like Sankarea but different.
It’s about Lesbians, straight
You’ll definitely find some relatable elements to this series and how the characters manoeuvre and interact.
It’s probably the first Yuri series I’ve watched and enjoyed it more than expected. The art is nice on the eyes.
You can happily expect a satisfying amount of kisses in this anime, but it doesn’t go any further than that.
Very few anime do without being borderline
18. Say I Love You
Say I Love You is quite a nice anime man I can’t lie. Lots of
It’s a shoujo-type series about Mei Tachibana, a girl who’s given up on the idea of friends or anything like that in school.
She’s introverted and has experienced the nasty side of gossiping, disloyalty, and fake friends.
Yamato, a guy who becomes interested in her changes all of that.
Decent anime all the way around.
Other anime with kissing:
- Chuunibyou, Love, & Other Delusions.
- Wonder Egg Priority.
- White Album.
- Citrus.
- Maid Sama.
- Sakura Trick.
- Domestic Girlfriend.
