shojo is ded, it's all about josei now

>>150496462
What's josei?

>>150496147
I thought that show was not so good.
My favourite shoujo would be Utena or Karekano.

Rose of Versailles is overrated as fuck but since nobody has even read it of course people think it's good.

When shojo grows up, she becomes josei

>>150496462
It's crazy how almost every single josei anime is somewhere between "good" and "masterpiece". At least if we go by MAL tags.

There are some good shoujo anime too. I believe we can split shoujo and shounen into two types, for children and for teenagers. They tend to be very different. And shoujo for children is often very good. Shoujo for teenagers also has some good, but also much that's bad.

>>150497480
I can't even think of many josei series, let alone one I would call good. These kinds of female demographic works seem bigger in manga than anime.

https://myanimelist.net/anime/genre/43/Josei

Chihayafuru
Usagi Drop
Kuragehime
Honey and Clover
Nodame Cantabile
Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu

And apparently Sakamichi no Apollon, which I've never heard about, is also good.
I think they used to include Nana too, but looks like it has been removed

>>150497227
Nigga it was made 45 years ago. Cut it some slack.

>>150497690
Wow those shows all suck

>>150497841
Chihayafuru is amazing you baka.
Possibly aoty 2011, and that was a good year too.

>>150497690
>Sakamichi no Apollon, which I've never heard about,
You're new to anime aren't you. But yeah josei happens to be best genre because it has so few bad entries. The market for josei anime must be so small that only if the source is really good it will get an adaptation.

Shoujo in terms of genre, at the very least. I dunno what the intended demographic is.

Rip the subs from the dvd release, put them on the BD release with Aegisub. Most of them don't even need retiming, just resizing.

Josei is by far the most realistic demographic.
>>150500898
Shoujo is not in any way a genre; it is exclusively a demographic. Also, Utena is shoujo.

It's literally a masterpiece, too bad you're aren't committed enough to anime to appreciate it, you fucking casual.

>>150510767
>my subjective opinion is better than yours!

>>150497690
Holy shit these are all awful.

Anyway, the best 'genre' (if you can call it that) is seinen.

Shoujo and Josei try to pander to women which ALWAYS comes with shit drama.

Shounen is usually brain dead and predictable. The female characters always blow ass.

Seinen, outside of harem, usually hit all the right spots.
