#11 Rui x Natsuno x Hina (Domestic Girlfriend)

To put it plainly, the love triangle in Domestic Girlfriend is an exercise in unfortunate events that transpire over the course of years. The series starts off with a guy named Natsuo Fujii hooking up with a girl named Rui Tachibana after meeting each other at a mixer. At the time, Natsuo has feelings for his school teacher, Hina. When Natsuo and Rui go their separate ways, his father drops the bombshell that he’s re-marrying and they’re going to be living with his new step-siblings, Rui and Hina.

While no one is at fault for the awkwardness of their current situation, the trio quickly becomes entangled in a secret love triangle when living under the same roof. While on paper Domestic Girlfriend has the making of any trash romance anime, the show surprised me with how maturely, given their circumstances, the trio act in relation to one another’s feelings. Definitely still a toxic relationship by every definition of the word, but it compels me so it’s ranking lower on this list.
