style anime

Now these three characters have distinct personalities.

Haruhi is a tomboy character that is not exactly the brightest of the three but not completely idiotic either. Always energetic, molests other characters and has a fiery personality packed with a stubborn attitude.

Mikuru is what I usually call "let's be friends" slut. An innocent and shy person that will always accept everything that is thrown at her. Usually in hentai they are the ones that do all the weird shit. She is also insecure of her abilities, always apologizes and is always voice acted by someone who has a high pitched voice. She also blushes a lot.

Yuki (which means snow if I remember right) is a cold and calm person. Doesn't talk a lot and usually acts very rational and is the common sense of the group. She isn't very social but is dragged along by her friends which she met mostly by accident.

So these three characters along with Kyon and that other guy that I always forget the name have adventures and they have their own club etc. I took this anime as the main example because I believe that by now pretty much everyone who visit the net more than three times a week have heard of this show.

Now let us take another anime of similar if not the same genre if we exclude the supernatural. It's not as popular as is Haruhi but it's something along those lines.

It's called Minami-Ke. The story is focused on three sisters who live in one apartment alone. They are all in schools. One is in elementary, one in middle school and one in high school.

The have the following three main female characters:
Haruhi
Mikuru
Yuki
