2.
Anime or Manga meant to break your heart, filled with love triangles, betrayals, and darkness. Filled with bishounen, and required by japanese law to have at least one shounen-ai relationship in the series.
Despite being male, I read a good deal of shoujo manga because of the interesting angst-filled plotlines.
