Here are some of the stories wherein the bishies gravitates towards the main hero. "Vampire Knight Guilty" - 13 episodes The sequel is better but the ending sucks. The build up was filled with dramatic suspense and I wasn't prepared to see the story simply ending just like that. The manga is still ongoing and I'm hoping for the proper finishing touch straight from the original creator herself. Up to the end I still can't decide if I'm Team Zero or Team Kaname. :s The bishies are pretty much fanatic over Kaname until the very end of the anime. But for those who are wishing for a reverse harem, here's a great news. There'll be an otome called "Vampire Knight DS" to be released this January 29. It's a different storyline and you can pair up Yuki with your favorite bishie. Watch the teaser here. "Hakushaku no Yosei"- 12 episodes Lydia becomes Edgar's fairy doctor in his quest to become the Earl. This is one sweet anime. I love t

Petit Four

"Petit Four" by Peko Momoiro - ongoing Mei decides to run her grandfather's cafe and a motley crew of bishies. This is based on an otome game of the same name. Thanks to Nicole for the heads up.
