I'm looking for novels or manga (not anime) in which the female lead is in a relationship / love with another female, while not being particularly about the romance.
Preferably some kind of supernatural / sci-fi / fantasy or the like.
It's fine if it's only available in Japanese.

Example:
Murasakiiro no Qualia
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
Gaku and Alice fall deeply in love in many of the parallel universes. However, while it is a very important occurence for the story to move forward, the story is in no way supposed to be a romance.

Check out Engravings of Wraith by Kiera Dellacroix... it's largely about the romance, but, well, it's extremely entertaining. One of the female leads is like James Bond, but more like how James Bond wishes he was in his wildest dreams, lol...

Stray Little Devil - Fantasy-esque, about a world split between Angels and Demons. Shoujo-ai sorta starts there but really picks up.

Pixy Gale - Light fantasy...unfortunately on hiatus with no signs of starting again soon.

Well, you did not specify Japanese novels in the OP.

You should try Saki. Believe me, it is supernatural wink biggrin
I'm seconding Pixy Gale, it's great even with the hiatus...
Maybe Boku no Futatsu no Tsubasa...
Flower Flower (ed: damn, this is discontinued too?)

I can't think of any novels, but I'm sure that I've seen at least a few visual novels matching what you're looking for. Though most of them were untranslated, so I couldn't read them... You can find them with a bit of searching through the tags on http://vndb.org/

So people could put down non-JP titles they like smile.


@Draconic- Thanks for the website, that'll make things a lot easier xD

Perhaps Murcielago which is more supernatural/fantasy, Desutoro 246 and Gunjou for action. One of my favorites is Centaur's Worries.
