Style) Titles that are dismal or gloomy in nature qualify for this category.
Shoujo: (
Target Group) (
↗shoujo (
少女) = "young lady", "virgin", "maiden"; opposite of "
Shounen") A style of artwork and story created for girls (usually of age 10 to 18). Characterized by plots that focus on emotion and relationships, and art that tends toward the florid, with lanky characters and rather effeminate (but always attractive) men. Mostly popular with teenagers in Japan, most shoujo-style work has not spread widely, but it does occasionally gain recognition outside Japan (some examples are Revolutionary Girl Utena and X). The most common uses are "shoujo manga", literally meaning "girls' comics", and "shoujo anime" meaning "girls' animation." Also romanized as "shojo" (actually
a different word "処女"
in Japanese). (Please credit

Far in the earth's future, mankind's civilizations have collapsed. Japan has reverted to ancient traditions, living in tribes and worshipping the old gods. In a remote village, two twin children—a boy and a girl—are prophecied to save the land from an approaching age of tyranny and oppression. Tatara, the boy, is brutally murdered by the evil Red King in a village raid. His sister, Sarasa, takes up his quest to stop the Red King.
