I class Romance as anything where the romance between two characters is a main part of the plot.

For example, I would class Romeo and Juliet as a Romance, but not a James Bond film as the romantic bits there are only a small part of the story.

 
 

Alice 19th

Alice and her love interest Kyo have the ability to use emotion-based magic words, and are prophesied to save the world from a great evil. Together with the help of several guides, who gradually turn up as the plot goes on, they [spoiler warning] do eventually save the world in volume 7.

Alice in the Country of Hearts

Now, this is an interesting idea. Take something popular - in this case, Alice in Wonderland - then move it completely into a different genre - in this case shojo manga. It has taken a bit of skill and the willingness to completely change a few of the original characters to pull this off in a new format, but amazingly this series has turned out really well.
