Cyrus Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 So, I'm thinking of creating a chain of Shounen. (Even though dislike most, they are still popular and people like them) I have the idea of creating of chain from what people think are the best shounen. To the worst. I'm not creating a poll due to it would be complicated. So I'm gonna have people make chains of the best shounen to the worst. I'll give mine as an example. TOP. FullMetal Alchemist One Piece Soul Eater Ao No Exorcist Fairy Tail Dragon Ball Naruto Bleach Bottom Here, I know I left some out. But that doesn't stop you from putting them in! So, let's see what people think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuki Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 What's the difference between shounen and like regular anime? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Amethyst Posted November 6, 2011 Administrators Share Posted November 6, 2011 Shounen, the word, refers to boys. Accordingly the Shounen genre is comprised of those series that are geared to such an audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godot Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 soul eater and Fairy tail goes above one peice in my opinion, also... add History's strongest deciple to the list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eternal Edge Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 you should differentiate the FMA's. The original is nowhere near as good as Brotherhood afterall. Unless you're talking strictly manga in which case the differentiation is irrelevant. I think Code Geass belongs between SoulEater and One Piece also. It's bishounen technically, so I think it fits in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrus Posted November 6, 2011 Author Share Posted November 6, 2011 There wasn't an original FMA anime. Silly. (Disregards it ever happening.) Ya, I mean Brotherhood. Original falls under Blue Exorcist. Bi-Shounen is alright. But fuck shounen-ai. Awesome, here is some shounen for you guys if you need a jump start. http://myanimelist.net/anime.php?genre[0]=27&q=&tag=&sm=0&sd=0&em=0&ed=0&c[0]=a&c[1]=b&c[2]=c&o=3&w=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stein Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 I think. Bleach is better than Naruto and there are a million more Narutards around than there are Bleach-tards. Bleach has more action and is more mature than Naruto no matter how hard Naruto tries. They are very similar in some aspects still say Bleach above Naruto. And what about Inuyasha...

Maelstrom Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 --TOP-- G Gundam Scryed Digimon Frontier Dragon Ball Z Gantz (Manga is way better) Samuari Champloo Basara Zoids Soul Eater Blue Exorcist Dragon Ball GPX Yugioh (original and/or japanese original) Toriko Death Note --Bottom-- Dragon Ball GT Bleach Naruto Hitman Reborn One [s]GIANT[/s] Piece [s]o' Shit[/s] --Bottom-- As you can see, bottom is its own category. And this next list are anime that I'm not sure can be considered geared towards males, or just haven't seen enough to make a decision. Avatar- anime style, but not sure it counts. It would be quite high on the list. Plus, it's pretty well tuned to just about everybody. Gankutsuou- drama heavy, not really what you'd find guys aching to watch. Evangelion- Shinji's a little bitch. Not the heroic figure guys like to associate with. Also drama-heavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neo Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 [quote name='TheScarletSword' timestamp='1320692273' post='20676'] I despise shounen anime. Shoujo is better; and even then I'm not fond of shoujo myself. But for goodness' sake I'll contribute. TOP G Gundam (can you really consider this shounen..?) Dragon Ball Gurren Lagann (see G Gundam) FMA Brotherhood Dragon Ball Kai FMA Original Dragon Ball Z Bleach (Needs less stalemates) Soul Eater Dragon Ball GT High School of the Dead Naruto One Piece BOTTOM [/quote] Dat.
