Enemies turning into lovers.

[Shinbou]

I've been wondering, i've watched many animes and have like 170 anime on my plan to watch list but i cant find this kind of anime.

Then i mean an anime where there are two enemies who turn into loving eachother, or they alrddy love eachother but because they are enemies they can´t. Also where they are friends/lovers and then turn into enemies and have to kill/hurt eachother or smth.

Then i dont mean enemies like where they were teased, had a fight, rich and poor or incest. I really mean like clan, war, family enemies or something that happend that they turned into enemies.

One that resembles a bit is kanazuki no miko

The best would be boyxgirl but yuri or yaoi is also good.

Spoiler for series that include enemies turning into lovers:

The first thing I thought of is Cardcaptor Sakura, Sakura and Syaoran. It's such an innocent and sweet relationship too, but they were definitely enemies at the start. Both Sakura and Syaoran liked someone else at the start of the series too. I would recommend the series to anyone. In this case, they were enemies because they strive for the same goal, collecting all the cards.

An other obvious series should be Romeo x Juliet, and it is exactly what you're thinking about.

An interesting OVA that you should consider is Rurouni Kenshin: Tsuiokuhen (Trust and Betrayal). Kenshin and Tomoe are not combat enemies, but Tomoe held a strong grudge for what Kenshin did, strong enough to kill.

Spoiler for Slight spoiler:

Well the obvious answer (besides Romeo x Juliet) is Gundam 08th MS Team (and I guess Gundam Seed as well).

Along the same lines as Cardcaptor Sakura, Princess Tutu is a good show about the change relationships take over time.

Utena has several relationships that change from hate-love or love-hate over time (and they all lead to fairly decent battles). In fact, the entire show is about the relationships and the breaddown of relationships that develop between various peopl (whether it be siblings, friends, or lovers).

Isn't cardcaptor sakura just a "I pretend i don't like you but deep inside i do" cause thats not really what i mean...

Romeo X juliet will do, know it but still need to watch it.
Rurouni Kenshin: Tsuiokuhen seen it, was a good resembling!

Also gundam will drop cause i dont like mecha/robot and sf.
About Utena, i can try it but im not that good with older anime in this style.
Princess tutu is a bit to childish for me...

Thanks for replying!

Spoiler for Cardcaptor Sakura, relationship spoilers:

What do you mean? For the first half of the series (literally, the first 35 episodes of 70), Syaoran and Sakura doesn't show romantic interest in each other and they were competing like rivals. Then, there follows denial, confession, etc...

If you must know, CCS is more "the other person is too stupid (for the lack of a better word) to be aware of the another's feelings." Syaoran actually belongs in a magic clan that is a direct descendant from the source of the magic itself, but either way, I just have a feeling it's what you're looking for.

The theme just screams Basilisk to me. The whole series is about waring ninja clans. Awesome dRAMA too

Don't get me wrong i was just guessing after seeing the first episode a long time ago. ill try it out, i hope i manage the 70 episodes...thanks!

[Deathkillz]

My suggestion was more of a "they love each other but can't because they are enemies" type series.

Do know the series (as that i know the name and popularity), so ill check it out ^^ Thanks!

[r0cawearz]

Sumomomo momomo. It's also very funny and very clan based. It's all about different martial art clans and x loves y but z loves x etc etc.

[KholdStare]

I second Sumomomo momomo, even though it's more ecchi/comedy based than romance.

I forgot about this title: Aura Battler Dunbine.

Spoiler for slight spoilers:

Show Zama x Marvel Frozen (she is American ), start as enemies and then turn into lovers.

You may consider Kare Kano to be such a series, as it starts as a rivalry between two top students: a boy and a girl. But they discover each other's lies, and after trying to take advantage of those to control the other, they turn into lovers. After that moment, the anime focuses on their relationship and their discovery of the world around them.

lovely complex is a good one; both start off on completely different pages but slowly...well watch it and find out

Definitely not. Yukino and Arima never were "enemies". They were just competitive students. However, two of the secondary characters (in the manga) were enemies then became lovers.

[Navel]

Yukino sure looked like she would have enjoyed killing Arima, cutting him to pieces, then having them thrown in the river and laughing all the way through. :P
It didn't last long, I agree.

Open Sesame - it's manga, but it probably fits the best out of all anime and manga that I have seen and read. The male and female leads are enemies for five volumes.

[rooroobearr]

Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team pretty smexy.

[Radiosity]

Mars Daybreak, definitely. Top quality show. Main character ends up getting into an interesting situation involving pirates (it's based in the future on mars with some of the best underwater mecha action ever) and his ex-girlfriend ends up in an anti-pirate force and is determined to stop him and get him to go straight again. Great action, characters, nice plot and the CG is top notch. Well worth watching
