In simple terms, a [[Love Triangle]] where at least two of the parties involved are siblings, who both love (or at least try to "get") the third party.
Line 31:
* In [[Ouran High School Host Club]], manga version, both Hikaru and Kaoru are in love with Haruhi. {{spoiler|Kaoru backs out because "Hikaru's more important to [him]".}}
* This also starts off the plot of ''[[Judge]]'': Hiro has a secret crush on his friend Hikari, but his older brother Atsuya [[Love Confession|confessed his own attraction first]], so he kept quiet about it. However, at the start of the series, he decides to tell her anyway, and secretly derails the pair's plans to meet for a date, figuring she might be more receptive to his confession if she thought Atsuya had stood her up. {{spoiler|Atsuya gets hit by a car because of this.}}
* ''[[OnegaiPlease Twins!]]'' plays out like one of these. The plot consists out of two girls that turn up at a boy's house claiming to be his twin sister. The boy and the girls need to find out who is the real twin sister while falling in love with each other.
* ''[[Simoun]]'' has an unusual example: a Type 5 triangle where Alti [[Brother-Sister Incest|loves her older sister]] Kaimu who crushes on Paraietta who doesn't have feelings for any of them (because [[Love Dodecahedron|she's in love with Neviril]]).
* ''[[Wandering Son]]'' initially had a [[Love Triangle]] between two siblings. Maho fell for a boy named Riku, so she asked her [[Cute Shotaro Boy]] brother to dress up as a girl after Riku had mistaken him for a girl and fallen for him. Even after he finds out, he seems to be somewhat attracted to Nitori; it's faded though, and he and Maho are a happy couple. It's never quite said whether Shu had feelings for Riku.
Line 57:
