  • I just had to give my Shoujo video a little brother. I had so much fun talking about these series, and I'm glad this video came out as good as it did.

    Hey I think you miscredited the author of Gangsta. Her name is Kohske! I don’t know the name you mentioned in the video but it caught me off guard.
    Great video otherwise though!

    One thing about seinen is that it's more akin to the Young Adult (YA) genre in the West rather than for adult men specifically. Some of my seinen manga are ones with incredibly strong female leads and casts -- shows like Skip and Loafer, Apothecary Diaries, Witch Hat Atelier are all featured in seinen magazines.
    Also, if you liked Kimi ni Todoke (From Me to You), I would definitely recommend Skip and Loafer's manga - it takes many of the best concepts from the series and pushes it to another level.

    I think Yukimura predicted that the rise of rockets going to space might mess up with the atmosphere, there are studies being done right now to see if so many launches cause adverse effects increasing particulate matter and stuff like that.

    Just stumbled on your channel. You gotta make one on When march comes in like a lion. The Mangaka previously drew Shojo. Sangatsu no lion feels more Seinin but still holds shojo sensibilities imo. There is this kindness that just exudes in every page drawn.
    I feel the same sensibility with Otoyomegatari. Shojo whimsicality within Seini. Idk. (do check if you havent, a historical seinin that blends the tropes of demographic categorization like Sangatsu).
    At this point really they're just Literature, those works.

    Love seinen manga. They have more in common with traditional adult literary storytelling and character depth while still maintaining the whimsical charm, weirdness and outlandish creativity typically associated with anime. It’s a best of both worlds situations, mature heartfelt storytelling with complex themes while still being fun, interesting and entertaining.

    Funniest thing Cowboy Bebop is a shoujo. I don't know if you're aware of what makes something a shoujo josei seinen or shonen but due to what makes something apart of these demographics cowboy bebop is a shoujo.
    Cowboy Bebop-Shoujo
    Your Lie in April-Shonen
    K-On-Seinen
    Servamp-Josei
    Personal my favorite Josei Series is Forget me not and the Apple Prisoner, Forget me not is a prequel to the apple prisoner.
    my favorite shonen is Fire Punch and my favorite Seinen is probably Heavenly Delusion. I have yet to find a shoujo I actually like though.

    I just finished reading Dungeon Meshi and im keeping up with the anime, it actually made me want to back in to anime!
    Mushishi has been one of my favourite anime for *years* and one anime I have been watching that i feel you might like if you like Mushishi is Mononoke, the art is just gorgeous.
    I have been looking in to seinen and Planetos is on my list to watch! I'm more interested in the blue collar scifi job aspect that the more introspective analysis of it personally, but i might cheek out the manga.

    The 2nd half of the anime only "picks up" because it gets to the terrorism plot which imo is the weakest arc of the series. Idk what's up with people thinking actiong and explosions = picking up the pace
