History Main / BoyMeetsGhoul

* ''HaruhiSuzumiya'': Boy meets deity.

* ''HaruhiSuzumiya'': Boy meets god.

** Occasionally, this is done to save his life via an EmergencyTransformation; the relationship may or [[IHateYouVampireDad may not]] survive this act.

* ''FateStayNight'': Boy meets superpowered ghost of [[spoiler:{{Gender Flip}}ped KingArthur]]. Boy meets superpowered magus. Boy meets [[spoiler:corrupted Holy Grail]].

--> -- '''Episode 7''', ''[[ThatGuyWithTheGlasses Ask That Guy With The Glasses]]''

** Alternately, he manages to purify her, assuming her condition is reversible and [[CursedWithAwesome seen as bad]]. A GhostGirl might found [[NotQuiteDead her body in coma state in hospital]]. God may "punish" an angel by turn her into mundane human.

The title is a pun on BoyMeetsGirl. Very often but not necessarily overlaps with MagicalGirlfriend or even ActionGirlfriend. Can be similar to ABoyAndHisX, except the relationship is romantic here. Compare DeadAllAlong, GhostShipping, and DidYouJustRomanceCthulhu for when the romantic interest is a bit more... world ending.

* ''OwMySanity'', explicitly a parody of the MagicalGirlfriend genre, pairs a human with a HumanoidAbomination. The strip is ongoing, but it looks like said human is going to get an UnwantedHarem composed entirely of Lovecraftian monstrosities.

* In ''VampireDiaries'', Stefan and Damon both meet Katherine. A few hundred years later, Stefan meets Elena. Then, [[spoiler: Jeremy and Vicki, after she becomes a vampire]. And then [[spoiler: Jeremy meets Anna, though initially she was just using him]].

** Alternately, he manages to purify her, assuming her condition is reversible and [[CursedWithAwesome seen as bad]]. A GhostGirl might found [[NotQuiteDead her body is in coma state in hospital]]. God may "punish" an angel by turn her into mundane human.

** Also, Boy meets [[TokenLoli 12-year-old-looking]] [[HornyDevils Dream Succubus..]]

* ''Tsukihime'' may qualify.

* A typical ''FrankenFran'' story usually doesn't start with this as a premise, but that may be how it ends up[[hottip:*:BoyMeetsGirl, girl gets in car accident, remainder of girl's body placed in giant [[TechnoBabble bio-reconstructive chrysalis]] to regenerate while boy helps nurse her back to health, girl emerges seemingly unscathed from chrysalis, boy and girl head to love hotel, girl transforms into monstrous insect creature and eats boy's head, reader is now [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel horrified]]/[[FetishFuel hard]].]].
* ''MahouSenseiNegima: Boy meets [[UnwantedHarem all]] [[FantasyKitchenSink of the above]].

* ''{{Xenosaga}}'' Girl meets [[spoiler: amoral emotionless death machine who shoots comrades in the back and murders crippled orphan children.]]

* ''{{Disgaea 2}}'': Boy meets demon. Turns out to be a non-issue since ''Disgaea 1'' already showed that human/demon {{Half Human Hybrid}}s are possible (and for those who haven't played it, a character from that game explains it anyhow).

* ''The Deaths of Ian Stone'' has a peculiar relationship to this trope. In the very beginning, everyone in the setting seems clearly human or clearly inhuman. [[spoiler:The second iteration of the main character's DreamWithinADream reveals that his secondary love interest is both [[EldritchAbomination completely inhuman]] and willing to kill him if he finds out about it. A later iteration reveals that [[TomatoInTheMirror he's inhuman too]], albeit with LaserGuidedAmnesia. Unlike most examples, this isn't about the human primary love interest learning to accept him--rather, he learns to think and feel like a human.]]
