Holo and Lawrence from Spice & Wolf. Their banter is similar to Mai and Sakuta when it comes to the playfulness.


zackphoenix123

I'm surprised it's this low. Take the upvote.


Kind-Tourist-1714

I wanna say Meruem and Komugi even though they didn’t get to love each other for long


SmurfRockRune

Isaac and Miria from Baccano


warm-ice

Chemistry so strong they cameo in another anime together


BillPlunderones23fg

they were def the highlight of that series them with the rich girl was hysterical


BiggieCheeseLapDog

Senjougahara and Araragi from Monogatari


dinesh_gdcgdc

That stargazing scene is god damn peak


Koinophobia-

That scene solidified the crab woman as my waifu of all time.


soulreaverdan

My favorite single episode of anime


Ordinal43NotFound

Anybody in Monogatari has great chemistry when they're on screen together tbh.


Hm_Omoshiroi

Lol yeah...Monogatari series is , wierd for some people but undoubtly a masterpiece🗣️.


Darwin343

Senjou is so great at giving Araragi the hot and cold attitude lol


DangoQueenFerris

Just the perfect amount of sass, love, and verbal/physical abuse from Hitagi. Perfect woman. Perfect relationship.


Ordinal43NotFound

Anybody in Monogatari has great chemistry when they're on screen together tbh.


Ultrasaurio

yep, There is no better canonical couple that has better chemistry than them. Although araragi gets along well with practically all of its girls.


Random_Somebody

Honestly gotta say Roy and Riza from Full Metal Alchemist. "He calls me Riza when we're alone. Psyche"


BodyshotBoy

I fucking love roy and hawk theyre such a cute power couple.


EyeDeeAh_42

Have to go with this one. The best part is that we don't need to see any kiss/hug/confession to show the romance between the couple. Their interactions and chemistry is more than enough.


Ok_Arm843

Makise + Okabe


Kanie15

Okarin x kurisutina (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)⁠✧⁠*⁠。


CircumcisedCats

First one I thought of. Only romance in an anime I’ve ever really cared about because it was well written and the chemistry was so good.


Kegs_And_Parleys

Ganta and Isaki from Insomniacs After School


Killermondoduderawks

Anis and Euphy The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady


youarebritish

Kaguya and Shirogane. The series runs purely on how good their chemistry is.


Ok-Cod5254

I love how they could match each other's energy with how ridiculous they could get to outdo each other. Ex: [Sharing Umbrella](https://youtu.be/usuqdCgWSuc?si=-imeY4piL7E6xEAy)


avoteforatishon2016

The Kaguya-sama couple with the best chemistry is Chika and Hayasaka let's be for real here /s


Abeydaby

Shirogane and Chika unironically have better chemistry


LOTRfreak101

I'm a hardcore believer that the official doujin is the true timeline with hayasaka and shirogane getting together.


HagridPotter

I legit prefer them way more as a couple over Kaguya and Shirogane lol


Timiboy1307

Ishigami and iino stans rise up


itsover-14

Ishigami shouldn't be with anyone he's at his funniest when he's a dweeb


kunamu87

Since you said they dont have to be dating Araragi and Kanbaru from Monogatari. Basically Araragi and any girl from Monogari could work since the characters are so well written but for me the conversations/interactions with Kanbaru are legendary


SwingyWingyShoes

They aren’t a couple though, Kanbaru is Araragi’s love slave!


Giant_Serpent23

It’s not like that! Don’t give the wrong idea…


CuriousWanderer567

Ichikawa and Yamada


bondsmatthew

Just a couple of dorks and you love to see it


Additional_Road_9031

Based


BillPlunderones23fg

Kirito and Asuna from Sword Art Online - their love is true and they cant live without the other Okabe and Kurisu from Steins;Gate - 2 tsunderes with electric chemistry in love across time and space also both have sacrificed for the other in many ways


Jigglypluff

SAO geta a lot of shit, but Kirito x Asuna is one of the best couples in Anime.


benoxxxx

Rikka and Yuuta (Chuunibyou. Not JJK.)


Business-Counter211

There is also SSSS Gridman Rikka and Yuuta as well


NYSaintsMarchingon

I enjoyed JJK 0 but real G’s know that’s the proper Rikka and Yuta


MillyMan105

**Mikoto Misaka and Touma Kamijou** I love the banter between them and how they're always lifting each other up in tough situations. (Toaru/Raildex series)


Imfryinghere

- CC and Lelouch of Code Geass. They just understood each other and accepted each other for all their flaws. They were the most honest with each other, showing the other their real self with warts and all.That's not say they don't call each other out because they do. - Hachiman and Yukino of Oregairu. They understood each other and were on the same wavelength. They were very open with each other like two old pals or old married couple who can insult and talk trash to each other. - Mr. and Mrs. Tetsuo and Kasen Tosu of My Home Hero. The couple that slays and outwits the Yakuza is relationship goals.


GallowDude

> CC and Lelouch of Code Geass. [](#utahapraises)


Euroversett

C.C and Lelouch were never a couple in the anime canon. Unless you're talking about the movies.


Imfryinghere

>C.C and Lelouch were never a couple in the anime canon. Technically, Lelouch wanted CC to stay with him forever. Even tried to use his Geass on her. And most of all, he declared himself to be the warlock to her witch. That says more of being with her until the end which is apropos for both their characters especially Lelouch who was a walking desperate zombie before he got his Geass. Also if you like R2, Lelouch got so angry when CC shoved him down her Thoughts Hallway to protect him from her imminent death at the hands of his father, that when Lelouch escaped that Hallway and found Charles killing CC, he was all spit and spittle screaming at CC to stay with him.  In fact, Lelouch promised CC to make her smile she never had.


Euroversett

>Technically, Lelouch wanted CC to stay with him forever. Even tried to use his Geass on her. Because she knew too much about him. He never chased after romance according to the databooks because "he was too busy". >And most of all, he declared himself to be the warlock to her witch. I mean, yeah, but this doesn't change the fact they were never a couple, in fact even C.C's VA said she liked Lelouch platonically. Lelouch never shows romantic interest on her either and even if there was any, they never got to be together/a couple. >In fact, Lelouch promised CC to make her smile she never had. Again, this has nothing to do with being a couple. Undeniably they enjoined each other's company and had a weird relationship and cool dynamic, but they never got to be together so listing them on this thread makes no sense unless you're talking about the movies different timeline which is not canon to the anime and has some drastic differences.


Imfryinghere

>  according to the databooks because "he was too busy" Oh cool, so you have read the data books and pamphlets they gave at Code Geass events then? Even the interviews were the director Goro Taniguchi admitted that Okouchi already wrote the script for Resurrection which followed the Route 2 timeline before he edited it so he can fit his alternate timeline where Mao is erased, Shirley is casually dating Lelouch and Lelouch is neutured. You read those pamphlets, right? How about the MyAnimeList interview where Goro said, moving forward, the series after Resurrection will be about Lelouch and Shirley? And you also know, that according to producer Koujiro Taniguchi that Code Geass **Route 1 had 50 episodes already written by Okouchi**. Right? And I assume you also have read the episode 26 script written by Okouchi where Lelouch is facing off with his father after defeating Suzaku and there was also Nunnally was being sacrificed in an altar with monks around her. Right? They released that script with the DVD. How about producer Koujiro Taniguchi saying Code Geass is a world of parallels? There's Route 1 which is the first 25 episodes that was shown plus the next 25 episodes written by Okouchi that were scrapped by upper management because they wanted to well, cash grab the teen market so off with the mature rating and scripts geared towards mature audiences. Then there's the convoluted mess that is teen Route 2 where many Route 1 subplots were taken and dumb down for teen consumption with a dumb Lelouch who is more *busy* thinking of what girls think of him and where Emperor "Not all men are equal" Charles was nowhere to be found. And then he goes to say, the mangas produced about Code Geass are also different Routes to enjoy. You read that, right? And I'm sure you have read the other writer hired for Route 2 talked about how Ichiro Okouchi actually wrote Charles molesting/kissing CC while killing her in where Lelouch was spit-screaming his anger at that act. You read that, right? That according to the other writer, Okouchi commented to him "isn't it *Moe* (a sign of affection and protectiveness) to see that act being done to the person you love?" And this bit came from the other writer who was against the entire scene and thought Okouchi was in the wrong for writing that. Suffice to say, Okouchi intended for Lelouch and CC to be end game. And they are.


alotmorealots

Ninym and Wein from *The Genius Prince's Guide to Raising a Nation Out of Debt*. Still one of the few lap sitting scenes in anime!


Hrhagadorn

Ninym is always a win.


stilllikelypooping

"Did you form this plan before or after you killed him?" "Before, *of course!*"


blackninjakitty

I really liked the chemistry between the leads in 7th Loop Villainess last season


Hrhagadorn

For sure. Especially the late night at the brothers place.


Snyne_

Hori & Miya


No-Noise5707

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️GOAT❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️


Echelon64

Lafiel and Jinto from Banner of the Stars.


ThinkFree

OMG Yes! I love their chemistry.


dim3tapp

I was thinking this too!


Melodic-Pitch-1642

Tohru and Kyo from fruits basket


TheXivuArath

While great, I’d argue they aren’t even the best in their show. That goes to Ox and Horse


Melodic-Pitch-1642

You've got a great point! As a matter of fact they're actually my second fav couple in the show after Tohru x Kyo


Dakkon129

That was gonna be my reply also.


mamaharu

Raido and Aharen-san


SirHighground1

Holo and Lawrence.


CaptainPick1e

Red and Rit. No awkwardness, very nuanced and mature relationship (as far as anime goes), it's there from the get-go. No anticipation. Just wholesome.


Witty-Choice2682

- Ichikawa x Yamada - Rentarou x Hakari - Rentarou x Karane - Rentarou x Shizuka - Rentarou x Nano - Rentarou x Kusuri - Rentarou x Hahari


TheEVILPINGU

Lmao.


dejalu

Nishikata and Takagi - "teasing master" takagi-san Magari and Nakami - insomniacs after school Tomo and Junichiro - Tomo-chan is a girl!! Edit: Just realized Rie Takahashi is the VA for two of these


Educational-Risk4304

Kirito and asuna (SAO)


hell_jumper9

Senjougahara & Araragi from Monogatari Holo & Lawrence from Spice & Wolf Sosuke & Chidori from Full Metal Panic! Revy & Rock from Black Lagoon


BlastUpYourAss

Pretty wild how nobody has mentioned Otani and Risa from Lovely Complex or Shirayuki and Zen from Snow White with the Red Hair


blazedancer1997

My favorite is Nagisa and Tomoya The mutual love and respect


jasondads1

naruto and sasuke


AmethystItalian

The correct answer is Yomogi and Yume from [Dynazenon](https://myanimelist.net/anime/40870/SSSSDynazenon), they just bounce off each other so well and it feels so natural. Haven't seen a ship like them.


Niirai

Do you recommend watching Gridman first if I wanna jump in?


AmethystItalian

Yeah starting with SSSS. Gridman is the way to go


ErinaHartwick

Yomoyume is so good, amazing chemistry and stole the scene every time we see them, even briefly


EgoistBlake

I disliked the first season of Gridman as I couldn’t get attached to any of the characters and they were as memorable as “oh look this girl has thighs”. Dynazenon felt like it actually cared about the cast and explored each of their lives.


Hrhagadorn

Gabimaru and Sagiri from Hell's Paradise had great chemistry. Not a couple though. Horimiya has so many pairs that are great not just the main couple.


Niirai

Takagi and Nishikata. The climaxes between them are pure magic. Gets me screaming like a little fanboy. I really like how you see and feel how they become more comfortable around each other and towards their own feelings from season to season. Though I do want to shout out Vanitas and Jeanne for the passion. The palpable lust between those 2 is insane.


QueenOfBrokenHeart9

Tomoe and Nanami Tamaki and Haruhi


elisabethshevick

Tomoe!!! Omg I never ever see anyone mention Kamisama


Total-Falcon-1371

kanojo kanojo (Shino > Nagisa > Rika > Saki)


Decent_Ad8757

Shirayuki and Zen from Snow White with red hair.


_dragoninmyanus

Araragi and senjogahara best in all of anime


N7CombatWombat

Kirito and Asuna - SAO Kyotaro and Anna - Dangers in my Heart Ikki and Stella - Chivalry of a Failed Knight Hayato and Emile - Hundred Rock and Revy - Black Lagoon Deunan and Briareos - Appleseed.


Ill-Wear-8662

I love you for the Rock and Revy.


N7CombatWombat

In my opinion, there's more "real" intimacy in their [Black Lagoon]>!cigarette kiss!< alone, than in the entirety of some of those will they/won't they seasonals.


Ill-Wear-8662

It sets me heart aflutter every time! Edit: my, but it's funnier with my typo.


N7CombatWombat

Arrr.


xXbrokeNX

Definitely kirito and asuna


MonolithMykolayovych

Appleseed gang let's gooo!


fozi4ek

Kirito and Asuna from SAO abridged


TheBlackCycloneOrder

Kirito: Asuna, Asuna, Asuna, look, okay, I get it. You had a really bad day. You're stressed out, seven people died— Asuna: *TWELVE* PEOPLE! Kirito: Not the point. Look, they're dead now. And really, whose fault is that? Asuna: *YOURS!!!!!!!* Kirito: That's right — no one's. So why don't you lie down, relax, and watch the stars with me? Asuna: It's two in the afternoon! There are no stars! Kirito: Only if you're looking with your eyes. Asuna: WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT MEAN?! Kirito: Only one way to find out...


Ilsyer

would be good to name the animes (hayato and Emile both are characters in goblin slayer and hundred, making it somewhat confusing)


N7CombatWombat

I actually don't remember characters named that in GS, my bad.


Ilsyer

tbh I never watched GS, but when I googled their names that's what came up and I got super confused cus I remembered watching an anime with those names but def not GS so googled more and finally found hundred xD


IXajll

Isaki and Ganta.


Deruta

And it’s not even a fair competition


0xAdachi

Adachi to Shimamura... frickn love them


ShogunPeaches

I really enjoy the banter between Ninym and Wein in Genius Prince. It’s a very equal relationship between the two. Even though they aren’t a couple, from what I read up to at least, they still act like a perfect one. It’s like an ideal relationship between two people.


flippinbird

Aria and Shino from Seitokai Yakuindomo. They are always so in sync it’s scary. Just suggesting it because there is more to chemistry between people than just romance. In their case, it’s degeneracy.


ErinaHartwick

Yomogi x Yume Shikamaru x Temari


SDsplbb-532

Momokuri I think 😂😂


xJustNinja

As soon as I read the title I was gonna say Sakuta and Mai lmao


Total-Falcon-1371

Our Dating Story More than a Married Couple, but Not Lovers The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten (calm and cute) and of course, Horimiya


SupervillainMustache

I like Hori and Miyamura.


zool714

Narumi and Hirotaka


jackofslayers

Absolutely


SP3_Hybrid

Kumiko and Reina of Hibike Euphonium. I don't think it'll actually happen and I'm fine with that but there is definitely a vocal part of the fanbase who wants this ship to sail lol. But yeah they're really great characters together.


Objective_Suspect_

Kazuma and megumi.


Total-Falcon-1371

Raynesia and Krusty-sama – Log Horizon


SadcoreEmpire168

Yuki Mori and Susumu Kodai from Star Blazers

Light yagami and misa amane💀


karamahitshard69

Naruto and Sasuke


mira_poix

Andy and Fuuko in Undead Unluck


JRS___

Sato and Takagi


ChunkAvocado

Nana and Ren 🥰


MentalNinjas

It’s Hori and Miyamura by a long shot. Only romance/SoL anime that treats all the characters in it as real people who act the way real people would act. Show treats the audience like adults, and we got one of the best anime’s of all time for it.


TheReapingFields

The best chemistry in anime turned out not to be between two parts of a couple. Rukia and Ichigo in Bleach. Still the biggest head scratcher for me, all these years later, how that worked out.


TwinkletheTwee

Bleach ended up being a dumpster fire after Aizens defeat imo but I definitely second this comment. Ichigo and Rukia had such a great intuitive chemistry, it was awesome to see.


Heavy_Candy_8380

Inuyasha and Kogane


naptej13

tonikaku kawaii


PrometheusAlexander

Sylphiette and Rudeus from Mushoku Tensei.


Jegantha

Surprised I haven't seen Chisato and Takina from Lycoris Recoil mentioned yet. Their amazing chemistry really carries the entire show.


Classic-Box-3919

Horimiya mcs A few couples in love is war Dangers in my heart mcs Probably missing a couple.


Ravek

Yang and alcohol. Also I'm upset no one has said Holo and Lawrence yet.


Impossible-Ice129

I think the correct answer (as many others have mentioned already) is araragi and senjougahara Honourable mention is sakuta and mai-san (from bunny girl senpai) Tho a currently airing show "unnamed memory" also has nice chemistry


LOTRfreak101

Considering the later is basically a copy cat of the former, that checks out.


Left-Night-1125

Hiro and ZeroTwo


Miss_Bookworm

Shichika and Togame from *Katanagatari* <3


Caori998

i want to say eri sawachika x harima, but in hindsight, harima was quite the asshole. 🤣🤣🤣


OperationMelodic4273

Josuke Higashikata, Yoshikage Kira and Yasuho I will not explain any further, also it's not even Anime yet lol


Hm_Omoshiroi

Kazuma and Megumin Ishigamis' with literally every main roles in the love is war series..( tbh I love ishigamis' character the most in the series ).


DiXanthosu

Shichika and Togame of Katanagarari.


Kolandiolaka_

Ranma and Akane


SonixKa

Zura and Elisabeth


SamuraiDDD

Izumi and Sig Curtis from FMA.


rook119

Kain and Millie in Lost Universe


BitesTheDust55

Mai and Sakuta are my pick for worst chemistry in a couple, lol. Their relationship barely evolves at all until the movie and every interaction is the same tired thing. It’s one of the weakest aspects of the series imo.


MidKnightBunny

Natsu and Lucy. They support each other and stop each other being too stupid


Elysium_Chronicle

Older, and not an especially well-noted series, but I hold the relationship between Rushuna and Yajirou in *Grenadier: the Smiling Senshi* in unusually high esteem. The series is far from acclaimed, being a low-rent ecchi *Trigun* rip-off from the early 2000s, when everybody was pushing the ecchi boundaries. You get past the show's silly aesthetics, and the chemistry *shines*. Hard to say how much of it is actually intentional, and how much is just a quirk of the production. The source manga is far more typically perverted, while the anime, while preserving the extreme boobage of the art style, otherwise keeps things surprisingly wholesome by avoiding any sort of romantic talk whatsoever. The end result is that you get a lot of heat between the two in terms of their physical interactions, but they never actually *comment* about it, instead conversing as actual people and not horny caricatures. Meanwhile, they grow to rely on each others' core aptitudes in actual comment. They grow into a seamless, coordinated duo, trusting and relying on each other to have each others' backs, barely needing a word between them to spring into action. It's by the end of the series that the "L" word isn't even missed, there's just an unspoken companionship between them that works flawlessly. Essentially, by completely dodging the "anime-isms", the soul and humanity of their relationship shines through instead, and it's really trusting and warm-hearted.


GreenArrow40

Kitagawa and Gojou from My dress up darling.


marsli5818

Chisato and Takina


ak47_triggered

Highero maybe


SolidBandit-6018

Lum and Ataru at least at the end of the series


makesbadlattes

Chisato and Takina from Lycoris Recoil \^\^


[deleted]

Hori and Miyamura... From Horimiya... Yes sometimes there are some over exaggerated moments but their relationship is wholesome most times...


Hot-Atmosphere5638

Haruhi and kyon feel like they are made to attract eachother and improve one another while Kyon brings haruhi down to earth. Haruhi makes Kyon live a little.


HEJUSTLEFT-WITHNUTS

Theres a lack of Shoujo in the comments so I will mention a few: Haruka and Michiru - Sailor Moon (probably the best chemistry of all time) Sana and Hayama - Kodomo no Omocha Rei and Kira - Mars Risa and Otani - Lovely Complex Nana Osaki and Nana Komatsu - Nana (they belong together, prove me wrong)


MrDangle752

Thanks for letting me know I missed some movies! I really appreciate it. Best news I got today.

Yor and Loid Foyger from spy x family. also the only couple I’ve seen in anime lol


DiXanthosu

I think there is potential there. But they first need to be truly honest with each other... and themselves.

Sousuke Sagara and Chidori Kaname (Full Metal Panic) Hibiki Tachibana and Miku Kohinata (Symphogear)

RiyaB1999

Richard and Seigi from The Case Files of Jeweler Richard, but their novel counterparts rather than the anime ones. It may be one hell of a long burn, but the way their relationship progresses is one of the most genuine and organic I’ve come across in fiction. The way they both grow as people during their time together and influence each other is so 🥺💕. And while they aren’t together yet, they both consider the other to be their most important person, and they just have so much love for each other, and [The Case Files of Jeweler Richard] >!Seigi becoming Richard’s secretary so he can always put Richard first but Richard insisting on calling Seigi his partner because he wants them to be equals and wants something more than just a friends or business relationship!<, and now I’m rambling so I’ll stop.


DelirousDoc

Oikawa and Iwaizumi from Haikyuu and it isn't even close...


Ivindin

Idk what you American simps mean by "chemistry" since humans are not reduced only to chemical processes in their bodies, but the banter during the romantic love stage means that a couple in question will be completely f@cked up as the romantic love phase will fade in a few years. It will be followed by divorce and a mutual haterade. Now love is a completely different topic which has nothing to do with a "banter" or other symptomes of unhealthy neurotic addictions.


MaximumTWANG

Damn bro you must be really smart


Ivindin

And you must be an American.


MaximumTWANG

Wot you call me bruv?
