What do you prefer shounen or shoujo?

For me shounen it is. It has much greater style for me.

I prefer Shoujo. I tried switching to Shoujo, but it just wasn't as enjoyable, I don't think.

shounen - is a Japanese word used in English to refer to anime and manga primarily intended for boys, although there can be crossover appeal to men and females as well.

eh shounen is anime that is intended for a male audience, and shoujo is anime that is intended for female audience, but that does not mean that males cannot watch shoujo and vice versa, i watch a lot of shoujo and shounen, i dont particularly like one over the other, there are a lot of good shounen animes as well as a lot of good shoujo animes

Who cares if it's Shounen or Shoujo, as long as they are good. That's all there is to it.

For anime, I'd prefer action, which is mostly shonen, over shojo.

I prefer shounen. I am a female, and romantic at heart. But I am not brainless. Give me a good story, over a "nice" romance any day.

shonen all the way. I think they tend to have more action and comedy than shoujo. Shoujo is still good in small doses for me though Very Happy . I just think the options for shoujo are really limited. Most seem to only deal with high school or some other kind of love triangle, where shoujo has infinite possibilities.

for action of course shounen would satisfy my cravings.. for a little bit of drama in my life then shoujo would fill me in... i don't really prefer one from the other... their intentions are different in their own way and cannot really be compared as to which one is better...

Exactly. Unfortunately, a large portion of shoujo is terrible. While a lot of shounen is bad, the difference is the gult between terribleness.
