Gin tama: I like how it's down to earth so far. Gender bender was the best.

Kenshin and busou renkin: Watsuki is good in this area.

Dunno any other shounen jump series where it did well.
>>
>>146204223
I got a better question because I cant remember.
When I think of Shonen Jump all I can honestly think of are, well Naruto, Bleach, One Piece for some reason, Dragon Ball.

Was Full Metal Alchemist part of the Shonen legacy or was it doing its own thing with another publication.

I only ask because I almost feel as if Naruto, Bleach and others get far more recognition then FMA did, or did FMA do far better then I am remembering.

I get this, but at the same time I thought ed/winry were one of the few ships most-if not all-readers were looking forward to. With naruto people argued over hinata/sakura, bleach orihime/rukia, but in fmab there was only ever winry.

Well, they are stories at heart. Regardless of the demographic, I think if something like a Shonen wanted to do romance then there's no reason why it shouldn't, unless the author feels like they'd be extremely bad at it. It doesn't always need to be Shoujos that provide decent romance.

There really wasn't a better excuse that doesn't make Naruto a coward, an asshole, or an amnesiac who just didn't remember it due to the Kyuubi berserk episode giving him a blackout. Actually the last is the easiest but cheapest explanation, although it conflicts with Naruto remembering that Hinata got stabbed.

I don't think so, lots of people didn't even know it was written by a woman because she uses a masculine name and her artstyle doesn't give it away at all.

As for if it was popular, I can't say actual numbers but I think the fact that it got two whole and long-ish anime series in a relatively short time, two movies and a bunch of games with new content says a lot.

I guess that's up to reader interpretation. I'm glad the author didn't milk this series. She could have easily done a FMA:GT with all of the other unexplored lands and Xing. All of the storylines concluded nicely.

Non-existent, the only "romance" is with Hancock lusting over Luffy, and he doesn't give a shit about romance.
And this is a good thing, hamfisted romance plots are generally ways for popular mangas/anime to draw in a bigger crowd
