You probably aren't autistic enough. The way anime is directed, and more often then not the main content tend to be quite autistic. I especially always found romance in anime to make no sense, but after seeing autistic people in my social circle get into relationships it was almost identical to what I was struggling to understand. The cast of cutesy characters in anime of that sort almost always have a few characters that are autistic. Key for example had a semi non verbal girl in one of their works, and the recurring chuunibyou has gotten a "holy shit that character is me as a kid" from a few people with Asperger's that I know.

They hated you because you spoke the truth lul.

No but seriously, besides your use of those terms you're not wrong. The characters in a lot of anime don't act like regular people (I get it they're in non realistic situations). Especially in romance, it's one of my pet peeves actually. You helped this girl up from a fall/defended her once/said something nice about her/is your childhood friend once, whan yall were kids and now she's in love with you and wants to marry you forever. It all stems from the nature and target audience of anime, they're aimed at kids/teens mostly and have to be relatively simple and they have to repeat key info relatively often which makes them seem autistic sometimes. I'm not saying all anime is like this, just most of them plus I've noticed it's been getting better and better since I graduated high-school a decade ago.
