Europe, I skipped the dragon ball thingy. I only had pokemon, the other shows didn't come until later.


And no, I don't watch harem. My latest ones were Tokyo Ghoul and Shigatsu kimi no uso

So ya don't deny watching shojo, and I know that Shigatsu Kimi no Uso is a shonen.

Don't mention that show here.... The lie was too harsh....
 
Is it a Shounen? Thought it was more slice of life. Dragonball and that show are quite a few ways different from eachother in my book.

I wouldn't quite categorize them the same.

Ufufufu~ Silly boy~ Shonen has to do with any anime/manga that's aimed at pre-teen to teenaged boys, which makes it a very wide category that can encompass many smaller sub-categories like action, romance and slice of life.

Shōjo, shojo, or shoujo manga (少女漫画 shōjo manga ?) is manga aimed at a teenage female readership. The name romanizes the Japanese 少女 (shōjo), literally "young woman".


Literally meaning “few years,” “shonen” (少年) typically refers to young boys under the age of fifteen. Thus, shonen anime and manga are aimed at that demographic. A lot of these anime and manga have a young male hero and are focused on action, adventure, and fighting.
 
By Tobi's definition I don't think Shigatsu kimi no uso is a Shounen. I'd see it more likely to be a Shoujo then, if anything.

No, there's a hell of a lot of different target audiences. So no, is isn't any anime.

There's also:


Seinen manga (青年漫画 ?) are manga marketed to adolescent boys and men old enough to read kanji. In Japanese, the word 'seinen' literally means "youth", but the term "seinen manga" is also used to describe the audience of comics like Weekly Manga Times and Weekly Manga Goraku which are aimed at men on into their 50s.


Josei is anime and manga created mostly by women for an audience of adult and young adult women. Since it's aimed at an older demographic, it tends to focus more on the concerns of adulthood and is far more likely to include mature themes.

Fuu~ There's a reason I said that it encompassed a large variety of sub-genres, not full genres themselves.


And no, as there are anime/manga called seinens, which are aimed at the more mature male audiences. Such animes include Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Berserk and One Punch Man.


EDIT;; I lied. Looks like Jojo's is both a shonen AND a seinen.


My life is a lie...!

I have watched all three of those. One punch could be marketed as either male audiance to be honest. Though if we talk Berserk, well... Griffin must die....

Never joke about one of someone's favorite things. You'll always end up getting the low down on it.

Hmhmhmm~ Once one steps into one of my domains of knowledge, it's only polite to give them a tour of the place despite their previous visits~
