Personally, I prefer Shojo. ;D In my opinion, the artwork is better and the stories are easy to get addicted to. But... I tend to hate the main character more then I would in a Shonen manga.  Full Moon Wo Saganutse, Crimson Hero, Fushigi Yugi, Alice 19th... I wish nothing but (serious, no way out...) misfortune on the heroines. I suppose the same can go for Shonen, but ah... For some reason, it doesn't appeal to me all that well.  Deathnote, Hikaru's Go and Naruto are probably the only exceptions. |

=D It depends. There are a good deal of Shojo that I just wanna slap the characters and creator with. =/ Like. ya know, when there painfuly sterotipical. Marysue is in love with martysue and he's indefferant about the relationship, but matthewsam is in love with marysue and marysue dosent really like him but her friend MissySally is head over heals with Matthewsam but martysue has a thing for MissySally but he cant figure out if its love like girlfirend or love like little sister and blahblahblah Soap opera.
Shojos=bad unless theres a d**n good twist and involving plot.
Shonen is just as bad. =/ For example: Harem Manga/Anime. Its just very *friendly* personWEAR!1 and panty shots galore. D= I only like one harem anime. About some 10 year old magic kid teaching a bunch of sassy highschool girls in an all girls school. =B cause the girls are all "AHH IM THINKING LIKE A PEDO D=" Through all of it. XD And theres a few funny seens. =3 and I agree with alot of the magic theorys in it, like how magic users are uber vurnible when casting a spell. ^_^
<3 But theres some really good Shojo and Shonen. Because they have neat plots, and good, 3d characters.
Meru Puri is an awesome Shojo. =3 though it kinda makes me nerk a bit in the second book near the end. D= It feels like a flip of a harem thing for a good deal, and ends kinda aquard. @_@; I like Call Me Princess. <3 because I relate to the main girl a little. Card Captors is good. If it wasnt for the frilly dresses and girls as main main main characters, it could be Shonen. O.o
some awesome Shonen is Naruto, Inuyasha (or at least, it was. its getting sorta... repiditive now. D= It should of ended a good while ago.) Shaman King... King of Bandits (I think its called)...
I have no idea what Oh my Godess is, but Its awesome. It just seems too pretty and suttle to be shonen, but isnt obsessing about relationships so much like shojo... *hm* I love the manga of Oh my Godess, though. Belldandy is such an odd character... o.O I havent seen the anime. =/ I don't really like how they changed the art style for what I have seen, though...

Jing, King of Bandits. <3
I like that series, but the bookstore doesn't have number 3 and it really annoys me when I skip around. -.-;; But anything with thieves is good <3
Meru Puri is good... but my bookstore doesn't have volume 3 for that either. Oo;; What is up with my bookstore and the number three?! XD

Ooh.. I like SOME Shoujo.. Furuba is <3. Hana Kimi too.
But I like Shounen better, for sure. RurouKen, Naruto, Bleach, etc.
There's lots more, but my brain is broken. And I'm lazy. :3

I only like originalish shojou. Like Instant Teen! Just Add Nuts is pretty neat, and... uh... Tokyo Mew Mew is <3. Full Moon Wo Saganutse bores me to utter death, though.
Otherwise, I'm cool with most shonens. Like Yuugiou, Yuugiou Generation Next, Bleach, xxxHOLiC (I'm assuming it's a shonen, seeing as it's main character is male, though knowing CLAMP it'll turn slashy fairly soon), that sort of thing.

Og.. My... God... I've never seen more flippant gibberish in my life... Shojo=Japanese animation and comics created to direct towards female audiances. Shonen=Japanese animation and comics created to direct towards male audiances. |

DoumekixWatanuki is a given. XD As is MoroxMaru, and I wouldn't be surprised if Yuuko starts messing around with Himawari~

x3 Yes, I wouldn't be all too suprised either. I support ClowxYuuko... most people don't agree with it... MaruMoro... I love those two. I get the two of them confused though. Oo;; Which one has the crazy blue hair? |

Moro, I believe, is the blue-haired one~
I think YuukoxClow would work, if Clow was an active character in xxxHOLiC. Alas, he isn't, making it very hard to look into. xD

Yes, yes.
I still support YuukoxClow~ If only Clow would appear.. Or Fujitaka.. or Eriol... Something to give me a little hope. <3
