My darling anime fans, the day of love is upon us soon. What is the perfect Valentine's Day date for a pair of otakus? Well, the ideal situation would be to literally travel to Japan and kiss under the pink sakura trees; they are already in bloom in Okinawa around January. However, if you're stuck in the Western hemisphere, I'd start the special evening by splurging on a dinner date at a fancy sushi restaurant. If seafood isn't really your thing or you're a bit strapped for cash, you can also hit your local ramen joint and slurp up some noodles like you're Naruto and Hinata. Then, you could choose a romance anime show to binge watch or movie to enjoy with your date. Just make sure the ending isn't too soul-crushing. If you are still eyeing your potential partner from afar, send them one of these anime-themed e-cards to let them know how you feel about them in time for February 14th!
