What the Hell? Steam sells anime now? No frak, it does!

But about anime related games: do you spot anything with multiplayer on the same machine? I already have couple games from Street Fighters series and Phantom Breaker: Battle Grounds. Do you have anything else to recommend? Purpose of the games would be to play them on anime club meetings with laptop, TV/projector, and game pads (if game is something else than turn based strategy).
