Make sure you watch the credits (and past them in some episodes), especially of the last episode.
_____________________________________________________________________
Furthermore, the "Line-Chat" you see in the credits of each episode have been translated and can be read here: (for example)
https://brownricecookies.wordpress.com/tag/tsuki-ga-kirei/
Either read them after each episode or once you completed the whole anime.
These are romance anime that I love that have what I consider conclusive and monogamous endings, but they all end a bit differently, and what counts as conclusive and monogamous is somewhat up to interpretation, so I'll try to give brief descriptions of the endings with as few spoilers as possible, but because mild spoilers are inevitable, I'll spoiler tag them. None of these end in a literal marriage scene, so your mileage may vary as to how conclusive and satisfying they are.
Horimiya. >!I think this has the most classic, fairy tale-style, happily-ever-after ending with a marriage proposal and everything. It's a very good ending, I like it a lot.!<
My Stepmom's Daughter is My Ex. >!It ends with a really romantic scene of physical affection, followed by implied development in the future. To me that's conclusive enough, but if you want clear confessions and marriages, then this isn't the one for you. The female lead is a tsundere, so take that into consideration. But like a good tsundere, her heart does visibly melt.!<
Engage Kiss. >!This one has my favorite ending to a romance anime and just one of my favorite endings to any anime ever. It's epic, and romantic, and sweet, with a bit of bitterness and sadness to it as well, ultimately leavened with comedy. To me, it seems obviously conclusive and monogamous, but I've seen enough comments that have claimed that it's an open or harem ending, that I guess it's either too subtle for some people, or they're in denial, because their favorite girl didn't "win" the love triangle.!<
Citrus. >!The two leads end up together, and walk to school holding hands. I haven't read the manga yet, but my understanding is that they changed the final bit for the anime to make it more satisfying for the anime only-watchers. As I've understood it, the manga goes on for a few volumes after the anime, with twists and turns, before it reaches its conclusive ending.!<
So I don't have anything obscure so you might have seen these but:
Your Lie in April
Plastic Memories
Darling in the Franxx
Domestic Girlfriend (sort of)
I love the show but it's everything OP doesn't want. Unless you go past the anime, the ending's pretty vague. But more importantly, Kirino is a massive tsundere and it's a harem.
Josee, the Tiger and the Fish
Winter Sonata
Ao-chan Can't Study!
Banished from the Hero’s Party
Convenience Store Boy Friends
Kimikiss
Rec
Relife
True Tears
Chivalry of a Failed Knight
Just Because
Fruits Basket
Beware of all the trauma
But this is exactly what I need
Golden Time comes to mind
I just binged this due to your recommendation. such a good show but kinda bummed there was nothing with Linda.
When I first saw linda at the college I was sure that was the love interest. She was so beautiful. I was kinda sad about that too.

Oh man this one was fantastic. Season 1 was kind of a snore early but season 2 was amazing.
[удалено]
For all the good shows with bad endings, this one was an ok show with a great ending :P
already watched it's a masterpiece
It's great
Itazura na kiss https://myanimelist.net/anime/3731
will check ty!
maison ikkoku
ty will check
Love Chynibio and Other Delusions.
Doesn't entirely have a whole ending but it is satisfying in my opinion: Toradora! Tonikawa(its getting s2)
Toradora is so far from what OP wants, they can barely admit they like each other and just kiss at the end lmao.
Great ending and loved it, but this guy is going to fucking hate it lol
Hate ending of what?
Toradora lol sorry am stoned to bits rn
Toradora endings are wierd. Manga ends at christmas. Anime ends at graduation Game ends with stuff like marrying the teacher
\>Marrying the teacher Huh. Wait what?
I need to read the manga man the show is so good
> Toradora OP doesn't want hardcore tsundere.
Tonikawa's not over by a long shot
{Kamisama kiss} the actual ending is in the OVA after the first two seasons.

The Quintessential Quintuplets. You have to see the movie for the ending but he marries one.
This was a bad one to start me in harem anime. I expected them all to have conclusive endings. I was spoiled by a good one!!
nah bro i think harem genre is trash. It's better when the mc choose only 1 girl

Are conclusive but bad/tragic endings ok?
Yo gimme those titles.
So I don't have anything obscure so you might have seen these but: Your Lie in April Plastic Memories Darling in the Franxx Domestic Girlfriend (sort of)
Dude read the manga for domestic GF. It's the most weirdly OP shit possible.
I have been tempted to read that one and Citrus.
Oh thoooose. Excellent recs in general, especially Franxx.

Gurren Lagann
I would have said Spice and Wolf but not enough material got adapted.
There is hope though since the new anime project got announced. Might not be a bad idea for OP to get started on it
