First love. As simple and as complicated. This is about first love, about friendship. Well orange is a fantasy and time travel, but i believe if you're looking for first love movies, then it is great.

Mizushima Toru is a former literary youth who lives a dull office worker life. One day, he receives an invitation and visits Kaede Inno Flower Shop. The owner, Mochizuki Hayato, is curt and blunt, and suddenly offers three flowers, saying, "choose what you like". Toru chooses one, tears off the petals, and for some reason finds himself in a high school classroom! In a panic, he searched around to find out what was going on, and found a diploma with "March 1, 2013" written on it. "Congratulations on your graduation" is written on the blackboard. What a time leap 10 years ago. The woman who appeared there was Toru's first love, Shindo Kasumi. However, the bitter past cannot be changed, and only regret remains. Hayato said "There are 7 tickets left for fate". With 7 more time leaps, will he be able to redo past regrets and fulfill his first love?!

Yuna and Akari are two high school girls with very different views on love: Yuna dreams about romance through rose-coloured glasses, while Akari is down-to-earth and practical. Meanwhile, high school boys Kazuomi and Rio also have different views on love: Kazuomi is an airhead who can't grasp the concept of love, while Rio grabs onto any confession as an opportunity—so long as the girl looks cute. Will these four classmates end up leading a youthful romance that meets their expectations?

The genre type is different I believe, but the same strong underlying friendship focus places these two as similar and the top of my list.
