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.
Self-explanatory. In addition to having a romance, there should be humor too, often directly tied to the romance story. Love Hina, Aa! Megami-sama! OVA, Chobits, and TONS more titles all fall under this genre.

True Love Story ~ Summer Days, and yet... |
Watch | Morisaki Yuuta (a shy boy attending second year of Tachikuka Koutou high school) lives together with his older sister Ruri; his best friend Momochi Seitaro is into secretly shooting photographs of various girls at school (for which all girls despise him).
