Samurai x is the best shonen anime I ever seen Majster on December 31, 2017: they have one goal to regain the alphons body. There are no side threads there. Shonen is about discovering the adventures of a person, guilds. The adventure in Shonen is divided into sagas. NANI on December 23, 2017:
As the shounen genre follows a fairly traditional narrative structure, there is a foundation for the character traits of a traditional shounen protagonist. They typically have big hearts and lots of energy, though they may not be the most intellectually gifted. Despite this, they are often quite pragmatic in combat.
HunterxHunter is by far the best shounen and the actual best anime in the world rn. Couldn't think of anything better. MHA needs a lot more work to ever be on this list, Naruto and One Piece have great storylines but so much filler, same with DBZ, which is full of feels all the way until Dragon Ball Super. Disappointed.
That anime is easily the best Shounen of all time. Probably the best anime too. Will on February 12, 2018: No, I'm not entranced by the most predictable story ever A.K.A. Fairy Tail. Also, putting My Hero below fairy tail is just a crime.
The shonen genre has a lot of examples of strong female protagonists, especially in recent times. These are the strongest heroic women you'll see. In recent years, the shonen genre has evolved past what it used to be back in the late 80s and throughout the 90s.

The ability to stop time is one of the rarest and strongest powers in the anime world. Anyone with this power can control their battles. Time manipulation can allow a character to wriggle out of any troublesome situation with ease.
Shonen characters often have a lot at stake. From their friends being in danger to the very fate of the world hanging in the balance, they have a lot of responsibility to shoulder. They're understandably hasty in their attempts to stop the villains, as their adrenaline is probably rushing and their time is often running out.
Heroes are often driven by emotion. They desire to save others, and this causes them to be flooded with desperation, anxiety, adrenaline, and excitement. This often compels them to make illogical or rash decisions that lead to careless mistakes.
What defines a hero is often their reverence for life. They want to save people no matter what, just as Lemillion risked his quirk to save Eri in My Hero Academia . Sometimes, this even manifests in forgiving the villain or letting them go, which can sometimes lead to further damage in the future.
Life or death situations often reveal a character's true values, ethics, and priorities, and sometimes those priorities are mismanaged. Occasionally, these situations even reveal the main character's selfishness or foolishness. They want to protect their loved ones even at the expense of others.
From going Super Saiyan to evolving Pokémon in the middle of battle, there are plenty of accidental triumphs in shonen anime. One of the most famous moments of this occurs when Yugi Muto somehow summoned Exodia in his fight with Seto Kaiba.
Shonen protagonists are notorious for wanting to win or save others so badly that they'll destroy their bodies, minds, or weapons to do so. When they do this, they rarely take the proper amount of time to heal up.
Impatience often leads to rushing into battles ill-prepared. Many shonen protagonists are so hot-headed, excitable, or stubborn that they refuse to wait to form a proper plan or for the right time to arrive. Rather than wait for an opening, they often try and force one themselves.
They typically have big hearts and lots of energy, though they may not be the most intellectually gifted.
The shounen genre is one of the most popular and most watched genres in anime. Why? While they typically cater to boys, they have an audience that covers people of all ages and walks of life. Shounen anime are usually the biggest mainstream hits and often extend to having numerous episodes.
The Story: Young Midoriya Izuku had always dreamt of being a hero ever since he was a kid. As a matter of fact, the number one idol that he looks up to is none other than the number one hero of the world—All Might! But no matter how hard he tries, he is troubled by the fact that he is quirkless (one who doesn’t possess any kind of super power). That is until one day, fate sets up a destined meeting between him and All Might. Midoriya Izuku inherits All Might’s power, One For All, after gaining his respect and approval. And thus, the incredible hero story that literally begins from zero begins!
And the final villains (Zeref and Acnologia), got beat by 1 hit. It is one of the most overrated anime of all time. Magi and Dragon ball, and ALOT of other animes actually have reasoning behind their fights, and the villains actually get proper development and deaths.
Well, with adventure present all throughout, comic relief lunging at viewers, and occasional emotional moments touching the hearts of audiences— One Piece is a shounen anime that is definitely a must-watch! I recommend starting as soon as now because it literally has hundreds of episodes.
Goku-The main character of Dragon Ball is arguably the mold that future shounen heroes are made after. While not the brightest, his kindness and dedication to his friends have made him endearing. His spiky hairstyle has also been emulated by later characters.
One Piece isn't the best Shounen Anime - it's the best Anime, no, the best fictional work in general. E on August 10, 2019: Why hxh it ended so terribly it’s like they cut your d*ck off when you were just getting started. I would vote it my favorite if they made a new series of them older like naruto shippuden.
Maka Albarn is a great shonen protagonist, and no less so because she hasn't experienced any great loss in her youth. That isn't to belittle the struggle of having a disruptive home life or the trauma that divorce can wreak on children.
Even Episode 1 features a segment in which his parents fall in and out of love with each other in quick succession over a dinner table, and throughout the series, Saiki's father, in particular, expects his son to solve his problems.
Senku's upbringing may have been truncated by the apocalypse, and little is known about his birth parents, but he had a supportive adoptive father who nurtured his love for science. Senku took part in school clubs, communicated with NASA, and won science fairs.
While Deku might be the central protagonist of My Hero Academia, from episode 1 onward it's clear that Deku's foil, Bakugo, is just as vital to propelling the story forward. Bakugo might be more of a deuteragonist, but he's central to the story and far from being a villain, despite his bouts of cruelty.
It's harder to think of shonen series that don't feature orphans than those that do. In the case of Saiki, he may be a bit jealous. He's undeniably accomplished when it comes to managing his psychic abilities but significantly more flummoxed by his oddball family.
While this realism doesn't lower the suspense or impact the characterization in anything but positive ways, it does mean the entire cast boasts a rather mundane collection of back stories. Viewers don't hear about tragedies, apart from the daily tragedies all have experienced: a grandparent falling ill, an older brother making disappointing decisions, a parent's quiet absence.
But Satoru's death is as unremarkable as his life was, and it's all uphill from there. Reborn as a slime in a fantasy world, Satoru is renamed Rimuru and finally begins to live a little. It's not the first series to start at the ending, but it is one of the best at rewriting a person entirely.
Dense shonen heroes allow writers to add humor to the pain that inevitably comes from human relationships and interactions. Of course, not all dense heroes avoid this pain. In fact, Neon Genesis Evangelion revels in it. Emotionally dense protagonists allow writers to ignore the hedgehog’s dilemma in order to focus on comedic stories or other plots. It also keeps protagonists from being as memorable as Evangelion’s Shinji. The hedgehog’s dilemma was used by Sigmund Freud and Arthur Schopenhauer to describe the human need for closeness and the pain caused by personality quills. The opposing forces of closeness and pain drive people to negotiate a safe distance between each other but still have their needs for closeness met.
Naruto provides a good example of many boys at that age. He also grows up over time, slowly becoming more emotionally intelligent in the process. Shonen heroes are designed to grow up with their audience, but in order to do this, boys must identify with them. Most boys can’ t identify with brainy protagonists. In fact, you don’t want to be a nerd. Growing up, I was one of those nerds, so I was the target of bullying and boyish jealousy. Nerdy protagonists have limited appeal for the same reasons. Nerds receive the favor of teachers and appear to have an easier time knowing their place and identity. Of course, nerds know this is just a misconception, but perception matters. However, if a story’s protagonist is brash, impulsive, and dumb, it’s easier for boys to identify with them and laugh at them. Dumb and emotionally dense characters make the viewer feel smarter than the character as opposed to feeling inferior as they would with the knowledgeable, thoughtful character. All of this increases the likeability of the protagonist. Not to mention boys often wish they could act out as shonen heroes do.
Shamna's Geass grants a godlike ability that can bend the rules of life, death, and the passage of time. While Shamna states that her Geass provides her with divine foresight, its effects are much different. In reality, it allows her to relay her consciousness back six hours whenever she dies.
This power is synonymous with the Fairy Kings, most notably Harlequin, the Grizzly's Sin of Sloth. Disaster has the potential to control both life and death, a fitting talent for a Fairy King. While this skill's uses are vague, it has been shown to better or worsen the natural state of a target.
There have been a few users of All For One, the most notable of whom is a villain of the same name. All For One allows the user to steal a Quirk from another individual. The user can utilize the Quirk for themselves, or distribute it among others. It can be used for powerful multi-Quirk attacks, or to create imposing multi-Quirk minions.
Nearly any fighter can learn this power; however, its most memorable and capable users are Shin and Jiren. While Invisible Eye Blast is weak in comparison to other powers, it can be used for various purposes. It is chiefly used to destroy objects, ruin terrain, and disorientate unsuspecting foes.
