So hard to choose… For me the best is probably "My Sister's Best Friend, my Lover".
Other manga recommandations "Monthly in the Garden with My Landlord" and "Arioto" (manga only!)
LN recommandation : "The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady".
Considering Ranma 1/2 was one of the first animes I watched and it has become my comfort show... surprisingly often!
As someone that became a fan in the early 2000s, we didn't have a ton to pick from so relying on nerdy elders to rec stuff was essential.
We should go back to OVAs.
A Lily Blooms in Another World by Ameko Kaeruda, who also wrote the Dragon Daddy Diaries (which includes LGBTQ+ elements, but not part of the core relationship).
Definitely Innocent rouge.
Queer, gory historical about Versailles and the destructive revolution that follows it. The two main cast are absurdly queer but Maria is the best one for being goth proto feminist and messy queer
The 1989 Earthian OVA had me in a chokehold when I was younger and I do sometimes give it a rewatch. Some more recent pre-1990s watches are Lady Georgie and Aim for the Ace thanks to my library’s Hoopla giving access to RetroCrush!
