Olimpos and Lonesome Eden are about a character trapped by a god in a beautiful garden for eternity. The art for both is very pretty and feminine (even for male characters).

The plots of Olimpos and Fruits Basket are nothing alike. Even comparisons between the characters would be strenuous at best. However, the way both manga tackle emotional turmoil and (rather angsty) philosophy seemed similar to me. If you liked the darker portions (and oodles of cute guys) in one of these manga, you might want to check out the other.

Beauty of Thebes (Novel)

Beauty of Thebes (Novel)

Eutostea, the third princess of Thebes. A night guest visited her one night through her window, whispering into her ears with his sweet voice. "I have come to share a one-night love with you. Once the night passes, you will not remember me, nor shall we meet ever again." Who could he be? He introduced himself as the God Apollo. As a human, she could not go against a God. "Princess of Thebes." Amidst the pitch-black darkness and the rattling of the window, a man with his back to the web-like moonlight crossed her window. Apollo had visited her yet again, mistaking her as her elder sister, who was known as a beauty all throughout Greece. "By tomorrow, every man and woman in Greece will know that you are my woman." Until when will this precarious secret visit last? After receiving a tragic oracle from the Temple of Apollo in Delphi, King Aphelius of Thebes snaps out in anger, as though it hurt his conscience. He becomes suspicious of the mysterious man that visits the third princess' room every night. The three princesses try to find out the appearance of the man proclaiming himself to be Apollo in his sleep. During Eutostea's brief hesitation, candlewax melted off the tip of the candle, falling on the God's shoulder. "Do you truly not recognize who I am?" "And how am I supposed to know you?" Apollo grabbed the second princess and placed his head near the candlelight. "Princess of Thebes, admire to your heart's content. 'Tis here the face of the mere shell you sought so dearly." He growled furiously.
