Two of the possible boys for you are pictured here, and I have to admit they're both kind of hot — you know, in an anime way. I like that one of the options is a boy with glasses for dorky girls like me. Apparently the site, which is a "dating simulator" set in a high school, acquired 10,000 members in its first five days after launch. [Web-kare via Technovelgy]
