Name: Honey and Clover
Anime or Manga?: Both
Rating (Teen, Older Teen, etc.): Teen
Brief summary: To put it simply, H&C is a slice-of-life romantic comedy about a group of poor college art students. Their victories and failures in school, life and love, all are shown in the anime with heartbreakingly clear realism. No one gets a fairy tale happy ending by default just for being a main character. That said, this isn't a sad anime. It has it moments that reduce me to a teary, blubbering mess, but it still has a positive note. Not everyone gets what they want or need, but they get enough to get by and be satisfied.
Additional comments: As a college freshman, I can relate a lot to some of the things that the characters go through; this anime has helped me through some rough times, which isn't something I can often say about any work of fiction, especially an anime. It impacted me more than I ever expected and has left it's mark in my heart. I highly, highly recommend it to anyone who has ever struggled to find their place in the world, or didn't know what to do with their life, or felt lost and afraid in daily life, or loved someone that didn't love them back, or couldn't love them back. So just about everyone. Try it, really. It's powerful, but fun too.

Name: Gravitation
Anime or Manga?:Both
Rating (Teen, Older Teen, etc.):Teen
Brief summary: The story surrounds the aspiring and energetic singer Shuichi Shindou, with his band, Bad Luck (formed with his best friend Hiro), wants to become Japan's next big thing, like his famous idol Ryuuichi Sakuma, lead singer of the disbanded legendary group Nittle Grasper. One evening, Shuichi is writing lyrics for a song when his paper is blown away by the wind and picked up by a tall blond man. The man dismisses Shuichi's hard work, which hurts Shuichi deeply, although he is intrigued by the stranger. This will be their first, but not last, encounter, as Shuichi will become fascinated by the stranger, who turns out to be a famous romance novelist, Eiri Yuki(Uesugi), and they will begin a relationship.
The story expands to include the beginnings of Bad Luck and their rise to fame, as well as their rivalry with the band ASK; the reformation of Shuichi's idol's band, Nittle Grasper; a long suffering fiancée of Eiri's who wants to finally marry him and serves as an enemy then an ally for Shuichi; the public scandal surrounding Eiri's and Shuichi's relationship; attempts by Eiri's inner circle to keep Shuichi away from Eiri in "Eiri's best interests"; and the secret of Eiri's painful past that he has trouble remembering and which is keeping him from giving in to his feelings for Shuichi.
As is typical in Japanese shonen-ai and yaoi, one character does all the chasing while the other keeps refusing or pushing them aside. However, in this case the tables are turned as it is the innocent Shuichi who is in pursuit of the reticent Eiri, as opposed to the usual setting of the more masculine character pursuing the more naive character.
(taken from wikpedia, cause im too lazy)
Additional comments: Shonen-ai, really cute,I absolutly love it. I don't usually like anime where the main focas is music, but this is an excpetion. Its one of those animes where you really begin to hate a character, Yuki is such a d**k, but he sorta gets better, sorta.
