2002/Drama/TV/Tragedy Titles

#
Drama: (Genre) Titles that show a state, situation, or series of events involving interesting or intense conflict of forces. See also: "Action Drama".

TV: (Type) All anime series done for TV should go into this slot.

Tragedy: (Genre) Animes of this type have tragic events as an important part of the story, and usually will show how the characters are dealing with the consequences of that tragedy (more or less successfully). This doesn't necessarily mean the story cannot have a happy ending as the tragedy might occur during the first episodes of even before story begins; as such this category information need not be a spoiler (unless the tragedy were to be a surprise for the audience in a mystery-style show).

Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto
Buy In a society very much like the one we have today, there are certain people born with the ability to apply magic, and a world-wide administration limiting and organizing the use of magic. During her summer holidays 17 years old Kikuchi Yume travels to Tokyo as to complete her apprenticeship to become an official mage, for which she'll live as a guest in the house of her instructor, a very handsome but lonely man. Together with her fellow apprentice Angela she'll find out what it means to be a mage, and what magic can and can't do to the life of those who apply it or ask for its application.

Meitantei Conan
Rent High School student Shinichi Kudou was a virtual Sherlock Holmes, who the Tokyo police regularly turned to for help in solving baffling cases. But then he accidentally learned too much for his own good about a murder case, and was caught by the villains. They poisoned him and left him for dead, but the "poison" had an unexpected effect--rather than killing him, it caused Shinichi to revert to the appearance of an elementary school boy! He retains his skills as a brilliant detective, however, and since that incident has managed to become adopted by his former girlfriend and her less-than-exemplary private detective father. With them he carries on his passion, and searches for clues to a possible antidote to the poison he was forced to swallow.
