Self-explanatory. High school (grades 10-12) should play a major role in the title. Azumanga Daioh is an excellent example of this category. A typical High school series will include a Sports Festival, a Cultural Festival, and a school Trip.
Action: Lots of shooting, explosions, and the like. Contains subcategories of more specific types such as Gun-Action, Martial Arts, and Swordplay; see also: Fighting.

Kurosaki Ichigo is not your ordinary 15 year old, because he has always had the ability to see and interact with those spirits and ghosts that remained behind and are hidden to ordinary people. And one fateful day, a female Shinigami (soul reaper) named Kuchiki Rukia appears before him as she is hunting for an evil spirit. During the confrontation with the daemon, both Ichigo and Rukia are seriously injured, and Rukia has to transfer her powers to Ichigo to assist him in defeating the evil Hollow. But in doing so, she loses all of her power and she now expects Ichigo to continue in her task of fighting and defeating those fallen spirits whom she calls Hollows, who exist only to devour other innocent souls. |

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. |

Sakai Yuji was a normal student, or so he thought until one day the world around him "stopped" and he was assaulted by a monster, “Kuze no Tomogara”. It was a monster which came from another world, and was able to turn human bodies into energy, something that it could eat. It was a girl with red hair and red eyes called Enpatsu Shakugan no Uchite and wielding the sword Nietono no Shana that saved him. Then, that girl, a Flame Haze, said to him “You don’t exist anymore”. What she meant was that Yuuji was dead...and now a "Torch." But more than a normal Torch, used to simulate the life of humans who've been consumed by the various Togara, Yuuji is a "Mistes" and a very special one at that. Now that Yuuji has been introduced into a frightening new world where he's not what he thought he was, he decides to make the best of it and names his female savior "Shana." Thus, she and Yuuji end up teaming up to protect the city from various Tomogara who find it suitable for their needs. What about the city do the Togara find so appealing? What is the true nature of Yuuji? Will Shana be able to deal with the other Flame Haze that come to the city? Will Shana be able to deal with her the odd feelings she experiences when she thinks of Yuuji being with his female classmate Yoshida-san? |
