Looking for stories where good characters turn bad/evil, especially manga which are interesting and have strong characterisation, good plot, etc.
*Turning bad/evil as in: joining up with the other side, committing various crimes, etc.
Not looking for manga which contains tragedy unless the author's really good at utilising it as a plot device instead of as a shortcut of ending the manga. No pure romance either 'cos I can rarely put up with nothing but romance(As in without drama, comedy, etc).
Can be shounen, seinen, shoujo, josei, etc. I don't really care for the genre: just that the story has to be good.

What? Bleach is not like that. The characters who turn traitor were evil from the beginning, just pretending to be fellow sheep among the herd but really wolves in disguise.
