Action Drama: (Genre) Much like "Action" (lots of shooting, explosions, and the like) except it has "Drama" thrown in as well.
High School: (Story/Location) Self-explanatory. High School (grades 10-12) should play a major role in the title. A typical High School series will include a Sports Festival, a Cultural Festival, and a School Trip. Related categories: "Elementary School", "Middle School", "College".

Rent | One day, Sendo Kazuki and Takase Mizuki find themselves hijacked by their eccentric friend Kuhonbutsu Taishi (who calls them "My brother and sister") into going to a strange, crowded, noisy and smelly place--a doujinshi convention. (Think of this as a sort of Otaku no Video that deals with doujinshi rather than anime.) |

Tooru Honda is a 16-year old girl living in a tent in the nearby mountain woods. Her father died when she was very young and her mother had just recently died in a car accident. Not wanting to put her grandfather (on her father's side) out while his house is being renovated, she told him she would stay with friends so no one knows she's living in a tent. In the meantime, she goes to school and works her part-time job on a cleaning crew so that she can pay her high school tuition (in Japan, high school is like college in the US). |

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. |

Rent |
The Samurai Girl, Ryoko Mitsurugi, attends high-school which sponsors student fight events called “K Fights”. Problems between students can be settled in the combat arena, but as the present K-Fight champion, Ryoko is considered to be fair game by any student club wishing to gain status and prestige by defeating her. Then one day, Ryoko finds a strange blue-gem pendant, which (with a strange sparkle of light) transports her to a world called ‘Solvania’, where her fighting skills are put to the test in defeating a monstrous dragon creature. There she finds herself called the ‘Ogre of Yenen’, and becomes involved in a battle that transcends time and space, and even appears to threaten the world and friends that Ryoko holds so dear. |
