Me and my boyfriend are looking for a romance anime to watch we preferably don’t want too much fan service and would preferably like them to not be in highschool.

Here are some of the picks for Non-highschool romances:
1. Wotakoi : Office romance
2. Ice guy and his cool female colleague: Office romance
3. A sign of Affection: College romance
4.Yona of the dawn : Fantasy
5. Jose the tiger and the fish : College romance (a movie but definitely worth checking out)

Here to second Wotakoi love is hard for an otaku
Also because its OP is insanely addictive especially at the 0:56 mark

* I Can't Understand What My Husband is Saying - short episodes
* Kowloon Generic Romance - strong mystery elements
* My Senpai in Annoying - workplace romance. (Shota-con trigger warning)
* Plastic Memories - not high school, but they're clueless yungins. (Tw: tear jerker)
