Anime, manga, or fanfic that depicts non-explicit lesbian relationships. Usually focuses on the romantic/ loving/ emotional side of the relationship, unlike yuri which focuses on the passionate/ lustful/ physical side. Usually no more than PG-13 rated.
Most people who are not against homosexuality would have no problem with their kids seeing shoujo-ai.
A magical girl anime about a normal elementary schoolgirl named Takamachi Nanoha who discovers a magical devise called Raising Heart and becomes a complete beamspamming badass.
It begins as a rather clinched Magical Girl anime until the introduction of Nanoha's rival/possible love interest, Fate Testarossa.
Nanoha threw out many Magical Girl conventions, using more shounen-style elements than shoujo, such as power battles and fast-paced storytelling. There are two sequels, A's being the better received compared to StrikerS.
Anonymous A: Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha is a great anime, but I wasn't impressed with StrikerS
Anonymous B: Yeah, A's was definitely the best of the series. If only they did without the Final Fantasy Final Boss at the end.
A great and wholesome anime. It is about a man who owns a candy shop and meets lots of newpeople. This anime was an emotional rollercoaster. Watch it with your family.
n. pl. light of unknown origin radiating from the forms of female characters in shoujo manga, so as to designate their inherent inner (and possibly outer) beauty. A relative of the Bishounen Tailwind phenomenon, in which pretty, androgynous boys in anime are followed by a constant breeze that causes their hair and/or clothes to ripple at appropriate moments of drama.
