The main reason for the decline of shoujo anime for me really is that girls/women will still consume shounen while boys/men will not consume shoujo as much, so for producers if you have to choose between a shoujo or a shounen you will go for the shounen because you know you will be able to get both audiences while with shoujo the audience will really be majorly female and you will be losing money from half your audience. And that is also why shounen these days incorporate a lot of shoujo tropes into their stories (ikemen, romcoms, etc.) but still do it in a way that is mostly targeted for boys (male protag, big boobs and heavy sexualization of female characters that is not as present in actual shoujo stories), they do it to make sure they will grab both audiences. That is not to say that seinen and shounen can't do great animes like these (just look at horimiya and skip to loafer), but it also means we get a lot of anime that is trying to do the same but in a very harmful and sexist way (just look at shows like rent-a-girlfriend and the millions of bad isekai that come out every season). So, shounen is stealing shoujo tropes and making them worse (most of the time), and we're eating that shit up simply because there is no actual shoujo coming out as often as it did before.

#sexism at its finest + capitalism at its finest #i am getting incredibly invested in this topic im sorry #gi talks #and don't even think shoujo is just romance. you cant even begin to understand the rich world of shoujo. join me in this beautiful journey. #let's read shoujo together #shoujo #shounen #horimiya #skip to loafer #rent a girlfriend #my happy marriage #csm #gi talks animanga #fave #1 #girlloving posts #1k #b

The Real Anime Awards of 2023

Every year, I like to make my own anime meme awards for the important categories we really care about. Because who cares about best animation or anime of the year when we could find out who the biggest chad is?

Anyway, here are the nominations:

Prettiest boy

Shall Fen Shall (Sugar Apple Fairy Tale)

Every single character in Tsurune season 2

Leonhart…in either of his forms tbh whatever floats your boat (Sacrificial Princess and the King of Beasts)

Aqua (Oshi no Ko)

Akito Yamada (My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999)

Izumi Miyamura (Horimiya Piece)

Best couple (and by “Best Couple” I mean they actually have to get together or at least kiss or something)

Himuro and Fuyutsuki (The Ice Guy and His Cool Female Colleague) 

Tomo and Jun (Tomo is a Girl)

Leonhart and Sariphi (Sacrificial Princess and the King of Beasts)

Akito Yamada and Akane Kinoshita (My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999)

Ganta Nakami and Isaki Magari (Insomniacs After School)

Hori and Miyamura (Horimiya)

Honorable mention: Iwakura and Shima (Skip to Loafer) are perfect but they never actually get together.

Biggest Chad

Aizawa Tomo (Tomo-chan is a Girl)...is it possible to have Chad energy and virgin energy at the same time?

Helck (Helck)

Kenpachi Zaraki (Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War season 2)

Rentaro Aijo (The Hundred Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You)...he's what I like to call an "accidental Chad"

Well, there you have it: all the categories that really matter. I know I could have made this a poll or series of polls, but this is just something fun and silly I put together every year, so I didn't want anyone bitching about my choices or saying "you forgot ___!"

Can't wait to see what kind of bullshit Crunchyroll cooks up for their nominations this year!

I want y’all to know that as much as I rag on MHA, there’s far worse out there 😭.

Due to a post being recommended to me on Reddit, I’ve done a semi-deep dive into Rent A Girlfriend and I’m astonished.

I’m a huge sucker for romance novels, comics, and manga. I think the premise of a guy hiring a girl to be his fake girlfriend only for both to fall in love with each other can be super cute. But wtf is even going on with this manga?

To put things into perspective:

First off, the author is obsessed with one of the girls to the point where he posts things about going on “dates” with her despite him actually being married. I joke about Hori having a massive hard on for Katsuki, and he does, but it’s nowhere near this bad.

Secondly, we have scenes like this-

What’s going on? The MC is imagining one of the girls being fucked by another man, gets aroused, and then starts sobbing. Apparently this doesn’t cause him to develop or anything. It’s just there for reasons or because the author has a cuck fetish.

Honorable mention to this-

I will say tho that the art’s great, something it shares with MHA. However, as MHA has taught me, great art does not save a poorly written story.

At this point, I’m just going to write the most cliched manga/comic/story of all time for shits and giggles and see how well it does cause man, people will eat anything up 😭.
