It was shown on TV here, already watched it. I can't really remember much of it though.

Druaga Tower.
Fate/Stay Night: UBW
Bungou Stray Dogs S2
Rokka no Yuusha has a betrayal but in the anime it doesn't have screentime. I suggest reading the LN.


But they're either Fantasy/Action/Seinen shows. Not girlish I think ?

this is/can be pretty much spoilers. But you asked for it, so ...

Druaga Tower - dropped
Fate/Stay Night: UBW - watched, I preferred the earlier version over UBW
Rokka no Yuusha - currently watching, almost at the end, very boring though so I won't bother with the LN.

I'll check out Bungou Stray Dogs, thanks :)

- The earlier version of Fate/Stay Night contains more flaws than the UBW version.
No servant can win against Gilgamesh. There's no point of Archer spying on the Assassin vs Saber fight. There's no point in Archer being summoned in the first place.
- Rokka no Yuusha is a mistake. They adaptated only 1 LN. When most of LN adaptations adapted more volumes (I heard Occult;Nine adaptated almost 1 volume in the first episode). I didn't like the anime to be honest, but the upcoming events are way more interesting. They'll give more character development to almost each character.
It has one of my favorite villains. And there's a lot of betrayals.

Hero Tales(not aimed at girls) is a prime example of such.

The Legend of Condor Hero(not "specifically" aimed at girls).

Letter Bee(not "specifically" aimed at girls, but girls would definitely appreciate this I think, the main support char Niche, is utterly adorable).

Fushigi Yuugi(Here you go, this one is specifically aimed at girls)

Saiunkoku Monogatari(Here's another one aimed at girls, and I rate this as like the best Shoujo ever made too)

Aishiteruze Baby(here's another shoujo for you, each scenario is rather short lived in this anime, but there is multiple cases of such)

You are right, but I don't like UBW because Rin spoiled much of it for me plus I like the ending of fate/stay night over UBW. I don't care about who says what, I like what I like be it good or bad ^_^

I find the whole concept of Rokka no Yuusha boring to begin with, no point in reading something where I have no interest in plot as well as characters. I prefer shoujoish content over action.

Also I don't care about many betrayals, I just want one which shakes up the MC mentally, it would be more interesting if the MC is betrayed by someone s/he was close to and often relied on, someone they thought would always support them rather than a bunch of people they just met.

Hero Tales, The Legend of Condor Hero - not my type

Letter Bee, Fushigi Yuugi, Saiunkoku Monogatari - already watched and I love Saiunkoku

Aishiteruze Baby - Summary seems interesting, going to try this one, thanks ^_^

I said aimed at girls because from the previous suggestions I usually get anime more focused on action, the sort of things normally boys would prefer. I'm not really interested in seeing how they train or fight or how strong they are; I'm more interested in the plot, how the characters interact with each other and their emotions and shoujo generally tends to do a better job with the emotional side of it at least. I'm fine with shounen or anything else as long as it has what I'm looking for.

Have you even read the op?

try samurai x trust and betrayal ,the betrayal is in the title isn't that enough.

EfiChan said:
There's betrayal knows my name. It's not a complete arc. but it rises now and then. It's shonen ai, but really they do NOTHING. I mean, I doubt they even hug.

Akatsuki no Yona. Again, it's not complete arc, but it rises hear and there (the truth is, afte the first "break up" they don't meet again). Has fantasy, action and all, but still shoujo.

Skip Beat may answer your request best.

Fate series got em betrayals

I don't think you should base your thinking of The Legend of Condor Hero based on how the Japanese would handle anime with such a premise.

Judging by the reasons you gave for mentioning aimed at girls, I can tell you would love it, here's a overview/review of it:



The characters are very open with their feelings, and everything too, It's hard to explain such to someone who doesn't watch live action wuxia series, but to give you a rough idea, it has a hell of a lot more incommon with Saiunkoku Monogatari, then it does with Hero Tales.

Yep np, that's a very unique hidden gem too(good thing they did a good job with it).

The Danganronpa series- some of the betrayal is incited by another character, others because of the whole despair theme on their own
Phantom Requiem for the Phantom- assassins
rokka no yuusha- treasure hunt
shinseki yori- you'll have to watch to find out (it's important to the plot)
