Riku8 04-18-2007 06:49 AM

I would have to say I prefer shonen as I watch more animes from them, but I really love the stuff shojo do as well, like Love Hina, one of the best animes ever, and I think shojo did Ichigo 100% as well, that was awesome, I'm a sucker for the romance types :p

XxVampireXBellexX 04-19-2007 02:02 PM

well, actually....
 
can't someone like both? i like both.... i can't really choose.... although i buy shojo beat every month, shonen jump is an occasional treat..... there is no way to choose!!!!:crykitty:

jass15 04-21-2007 05:39 PM

Well...as for me...I like both :D !!! And I love Fruits Basket :p !!! :ywave: :vsign:

catt 04-21-2007 06:13 PM

koaku 04-21-2007 06:35 PM

Hisuwashi 04-21-2007 06:45 PM

Shonen, I don't watch Shojo much... but I watched Ichigo 100% .. and School Rumble actually

fuu 04-21-2007 11:47 PM

I think I've posted in this before but just incase I'll do it again.

I like both............I am a girl and I love Fruits Basket and DNangel but I'm also hardcore about Gundam. I also love Naruto, Bleach, Black Cat, etc.......

If I like it I just do and that is that

AnimeFreak 04-22-2007 11:18 PM

i cant believe this thread is still going on XD
its been months since ive replied to this one so SORRY!
^_^'
um... weird... ive seen way more shoujo than shonen... i like shonen for its intense action and mysteries... shoujo is probably like a "cheer me on" type of this i watch to bring my mood up after a long shonen ive finally finished... im usually sad to see the last eps of shonen so i watch shoujo right after tht to bring my mood up and use up all tht happy mood ive gotten from the shoujo to watch more shonen XD i have a weird system.. its like:
shoujo=happy pills
shonen= hard life

everytime a hard day ends, i take happy pills so ill b happy enough to start another hard day

DragonQuest 04-27-2007 03:27 PM

I prefer shonen by far, Naruto.. Beach..Dragon Ball Z... Death Note... All top of my Anime list.

TegoshiKawaiiDesu 05-27-2007 05:53 AM

wooooooow.... so overall... ther r more shounen fans than shoujo?

[yes, im the one tht started this thread.. check out my signature XD]

ScarletKitsune 05-27-2007 09:32 AM

yes, shonen rules!
I like Shonen better, cause naruto is in that catagory, and cause i cant really stand and watch shoujo anime.............Inuyasha is kinda both though......i think......well, its more shonen.....

Pepekun 05-27-2007 04:14 PM

It gives equal me as it is Anime, while there is fight, great techniques battle, many imagination, adventures. It gives me just as it is for boys like for girls.

But I request more series and films like Dragoon Ball Z, Naruto, Sailormoon, one piece, bleach, gives lomismo me while Anime is worth the pain.

I would like to know if there is algun animates of fight like Bsll Dragoon or Naruto, that the protagonist is a girl and I do not like much sailormoon but I do not dislike to me either. I like that in the series there is blood so that she gives to more realism and more spectacularity them. For that reason it does not like much Sailormoon needs me blood.


But it is that I like but the series of Martial Arts, etc. But it is that there are few girls who are protagonists.

I would like that there were more small Fighters in Anime is already it but I want something like Ball Dragoon carried out by a feminine personage. That there are few. In the American Comic if that small heróics.

The woman has changed much has improved much in some aspects and that I like. Already see I them able of everything. Physically he has even changed much.:vsign: :vsign: :mtongue:

I as much want heroes like Goku in the cinema as in the Anime. And also heroes like Cyborg18 or best. I as much want heroes like Goku in the cinema as in Anime. And also heroes like Cyborg18, Sakura or better still. I would outside like that Cyborg 18 protagonist of a new series.

TegoshiKawaiiDesu 05-27-2007 07:03 PM

lol
hahahaha!
well, i understand... ther r some shoujo tht is just TOO girly! XD
i cant stand them: mermaid melody.... tokyo mew mew etc.

I JUST DONT LIKE THINGS THT R TOO GIRLY! luckily though, ther r some mediocre shoujo like:

ouran high school host club, fruits basket, lovely complex, negima [kinda], love hina [kinda], etc.

sasori 05-29-2007 03:20 AM

i like shonen better cause i like anime with fighting in it :marusmile:

TegoshiKawaiiDesu 05-29-2007 05:20 AM

same here XD
its more intense.... but the love-life or crushes are fun to watch too XD
hahah! ^_^
im trying to create a manga storyline... XD i already drew the characters.. i want to show them to ppl but my scanner doesnt work at all v_v

xYinniex 05-29-2007 10:01 AM

depends how i am feeling on the day im watching anime. i may feel like watching shoujo or shonen, i really don't mind. say for instance i'm feeling pissed off, of course i would want to watch gore and violence. or im feeling just dreamy and weird, i probably watch shoujo. manga is always my first choice XD. and then j drama.

both are good.

Demysia 05-29-2007 11:26 AM

Wow that's a tough one, I love both kinds equally ^__^

wow.
XD
yea... u can choose both, but for some reason, mostly everyone picked one or the other..
the votes leaned on SHOUNEN XD
hahaha!
im sorry for the shoujo ppl.... ^_^'

yukisnow 06-03-2007 12:10 AM

I like both but i prefer the really dark Shounen. Like Really hardcore blood and gore stuff.:angryblob:

when i'm in the mood, i'll def watch some shojo, or read. like i get ShojoBeat Manga (Manga From The :rheart: ) every month so i'm good for that.:vsign:

But i go to the mall every week and buy a new shounen DVD or Manga.:D

Yup...So Def Shounen.:marusmile: Pref Naruto Shippuden

Kitaooji 06-03-2007 04:26 AM

Personally I love both!

Shojo can be easier to relate to, but shonen is fun and tough without being overtop about romance (like some shojo).

cattiemae 06-08-2007 04:49 AM

Cattieee.

I completely agree! I love Bleach, Naruto, HunterxHunter etc and Hana-Kimi, Ouran, Love Hina etc. It doesn't really matter. Some shojou anime/manga have fghting in it too, and A LOT of shounen has traces of romance in it<3

I love both shojo and shonen I can't really dicide

onigiribou 06-10-2007 03:02 AM

me too ^^
but more so shojo. lol

pichu0123 06-10-2007 07:13 PM

I like both. But I think it's hard to find good Shonen, so I usally read most Shoujo..... But of course I would have read Shonen if I could find a good one.
Death Note, One Piece, Detective Conan, Ranma 1/2, Inuyasha, Dragoonball and Naruto is good Shonen!:vsign:
Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne(and all of Arina's manga), Milk crown(H, Lovers), Koigoro Fantasia, Knighty Knight Fruit Basket and Penguin Brothers is good Shoujo!:pinksong:

KylieKawaii 06-12-2007 01:21 AM

Shojo, but then again, I AM a girl :D

I always thought Love Hina was a shojo written more for guys - come on, its every guys harem fantasy!

gn1225 06-12-2007 01:36 AM

i like 'em both..shojo its like violence conbined with love..thats what Negima! is...and Shonen is like cool violence and adventure:D

NaKa 06-30-2007 08:04 PM

I like Shonen the most ^^

Himechan 06-30-2007 08:25 PM

I like both. Shoujo is usually more.. funny, and that is good for my soul -nodnond-

But I tend to dislike romance, especially canon romance -ickick-

So I watch some shounen stuff for the non-overkill romance.

I like shoujo manga more than anime though...

I HATE CANON ROMANCE...

most of the time ^^;

ButterflyDemise 06-30-2007 11:55 PM

Even though I rarely read Manga now... I think I like both. Neither over the other? >.>

TegoshiKawaiiDesu 07-01-2007 01:47 AM

lol
I like shoujo. The only thing I dislike about it is way too much magical stuff. If it was like Lovely Complex or Ouran High School Host Club, I'd love it sooo much. I also like shounen such as Death Note though it didn't end as tragically as I imagined it would be. ^_^

Suki 07-01-2007 11:30 AM

If I've gotta choose: Shonen.

fara7 07-01-2007 12:31 PM

I prefer shojou.

kagutaba 07-01-2007 02:37 PM

I like both, but I usually prefer shounen.

TegoshiKawaiiDesu 07-02-2007 06:12 AM

lol
to me, it depends on how girly the shoujo is... ^_^
if its the really girly shoujo vs shounen, id choose shounen...
but if it is the average shoujo vs shounen, i cant choose XD

animefan18 07-03-2007 01:47 AM

...I CAN'T CHOOSE!! I like them both...but if it was a life or death decision, I would choose...shojo, I guess...

CPU 07-03-2007 11:03 AM

I really don't choose my anime\ manga that way so I'm going to say neither and both :mtongue:

Tokai 09-04-2007 08:13 PM

Horror O_O! xD 51% Shoujo - 49% Shounen (OvO)ll
