Making the Shonen Jump to Shoujo

[@ChronicleV]

I remember reading Kaze Hikaru on the Shojo Beat magazine 15 (!!) years ago. I can’t believe they haven’t finished localizing it.💀💀 They’re literally over a decade behind?!

[@smasagaming]

Kaze Hikaru is phenomenal, it's a truly underrated Shoujo manga.

[@maxaroni39]

it's so annoying the way Viz treats it, but they've never really been kind to shojo :( here's hoping that it won't take another 15 years to get the rest of the series.

No kidding, this makes Netflix jail look like a joke.

[@Toastcat890]

Wow this is why I gave up on translated manga stuff for females tends to get ignored in favor of shounen and I use to buy quite a few now I troll scanslation sites for my fix.

[@drcaligaridane]

Some of the fight scenes in Yona (Hak scenes) reminded me of Guts Berserker Armor fights, then I remember Kentaro Miura actually loved Yona and made two promotional pictures for it 😭. I don't doubt Kusanagi was a huge fan of Berserk as well

[@SleuthKahlua]

Even as a longtime shoujo fan, I'd been on the fence about picking up Sacrificial Princess. But now knowing it's similar to Ancient Magus Bride which I absolutely adore, and even play in a DnD campaign inspired by it, I'm definitely gonna have to give it a read. EDIT: I'm returning to this comment to say that I just finished the entirety of Sacrificial Princess and I have no regrets. That was such a beautiful story and heartwarming romance

[@ColleensMangaRecs]

I get why everyone has reservations about it lol even I did when I first heard about it too but it really is great!!

[@jordanmccusker3705]

Same. I saw it and was like I can either see this being amazing or horrible but knowing it’s similar to ancient magus bride and just everything about it, I really want to pick up the manga. I was planning on watching the anime anyway but I’m really excited for it now.

[@milktea6676]

I like Colleen’s character development from pink hair to red hair it was so conflicting but in the end red ruled the victor!!!

[@savc_theavenger1574]

Yona of the Dawn and One Piece are my top 2 and the way you explained the similarities definitely explains why!! Loved seeing this series on tik tok. I’m happy you brought it on to here! 🥰

[@laracunningham7335]

omg same, I absolutely loved Yona of the Dawn, I wish they made a season 2 of the anime

[@michellecamacho1428]

I'd guess an even better comparison would be One Piece x Basara I mean "a story abt a young hero whos is in a way or another the embodiment of liberation, travelling to and freeing places while gathering allies and admirators (who might follow them bc of a prophecy or not) until they put down the ultimate opressor" is basically both of them, right? At least from where i am in Basara it checks. Plus they both got all the ~feels~ and awesome worldbuilding. Still i get Yona being the one since its gotta be accessible 🥲 Huge comeback, so happy to get all these recs

“This is not a recommendation - this is a CALL TO ACTION!” 😂 Thank God someone else is saying this. 15 YEARS!!! FIFTEEN!!! I’ve already been reading this thing for 10 years and I have to double that to finish it??? PLEASE EVERYONE READ KAZE HIKARU IT’S SO GOOD!!

[@Nikita_Akashya]

I am collecting Noragami and that manga only gets 1 volume per year, because we have caught up to the Japanese release. But damn, having to wait as many years as there are volumes really sucks. Yona is a monthly release but we still get a volume almost every month or so. I can tell you, that it would not take that long if the series came out in Germany. German manga releases are one volume every 2 months usually, so if Kaze Hikaru came out here, it would probably finsih its release in only 8 years or so. That is less time than having to wait for the last volumes of the English release. And us Germans have pretty much everything release physically. I feel for the US Manga fans.

[@katherinecargill8214]

And it's even worse because it's a manga with so much political and historic context that those volume gaps really kill your abillity to be immersed. I've forgotten the last volume by the time the new one comes out! I'm a few behind and need to catch up, but probably won't bother sitting down and reading them until we catch up in.... lmao 15 years, since at this point I want to start over from the beginning.

[@julieannefowler5768]

Ancient Magus' Bride is shonen? I actually didn't know that. I assumed it was the same category as Pandora Hearts which was neither shonen nor shojo. It's one of the ones I can never remember the category name for. Interesting to find out.

[@kirbyjoe7484]

@@julieannefowler5768 Ancient Magus' Bride is one of those manga that straddles the line between multiple genres.

[@InoueMagi]

1. Yona of the dawn. My first reaction when you mention this series I thought it sounds familiar then I realize it's Akatsuki no Yona lol I recognize the Japanese name than the English one lol but seriously this series is so good that I cried they didn't make a second season in the anime. The show has Fusho gi Yugi (Mysterious Play) kinda vibes as well and one of my favorite anime of all time. 2. Ore-sama sensei. One of the best genderbend manga that I read. It's very fun and quirky, not one chapter that I'm laughing out loud then crying on the next. This series and Skip Beat are one of my favorite top genderbend manga series in all time! 3. Waiting for spring. I haven't read that despite my friends been recommending me to read that series, the only reason I haven't because of the love triangle plot, I kinda hesitated. Will probably gonna try this. 4. Kaze Hikaru. Another good recommendation genderbender manga. The only hate about the series is she got bald in top of her head TnT and I understand why, cause it's part of being a samurai. 5. Special A. My childhood memories with me and my friends watching this every afternoon after school. One of the best anime I've watch but havent read the manga. 6. Sacrificial Princess. Omg I haven't heard of this series on a long time lol it brings a lot of memories of me reading this back then feeling I've read something taboo hahaha then realize beauty and the beast exsist so yeah got over it easily XD gonna read this again.

[@buchelaruzit]

This is such a great idea! It's not easy to find shoujo resources, especially when you don't look for it. This will definitely encourage me to read more shojo manga

[@acecosmonaut5559]

I've read every single shoujo manga recommended in this video and I agree with each one of them being really good

[@Kermomancer]

Oh, this is perfect. My history with manga is exclusively collecting shonen as a teenager and in my early 20s to way more recently (now in my 30s) collecting mostly seinen books. I've been meaning to look into more shojo and josei, especially since literally the only shojo in my collection is Magic Knight Rayearth. This is a huge blind spot in my collection and I just have trouble finding things that would fall into my area of interest.

[@nushrathumaira2257]

This is my first time with “shonen jump to shoujo” and love the idea. Although most titles are either I watched/watching or never watched in past 20+ years/will never watch( aka one piece) I am excited that this video will help Shoujosei genre to get its hay day back.

[@carolcorreia1245]

i would love a next part with recommendation for "if you like inuyasha" you should check "this shoujo manga".

[@filipasfantasy]

I wasn't aware of this series of yours, and it's funny, because growing up I only watched anime, and when the first part of the anime for Fairy Tail ended, in 2013, I just needed more, so I tried out the manga. I was only a pre-teen, though, and not really used to any sort of comics, much less ones with fight scenes, so it was extremely hard for me to follow what was happening in the FT manga, so I stopped and decided to wait for the anime to return. A while later, I got into shoujo manga, and I'm positive that's the only reason I was ever eventually able to read FT when I picked it back up on manga again. So I guess I did this the other way around haha. I haven't yet read Yona of the Dawn, though, despite it being on my radar. I'll definitely be reading it soon, now :)

[@strawberrygummi]

I've seen you mention Yona of dawn in some of your videos and I highly recommend Color cloud palace/ The story of Saiunkoku. It's got similar political aspects Yona has and amazing world building and the main character is written so well I can't recommend this series enough!!

[@jmsochannel]

You should totally read Undead Unluck! It’s a shonen/shojo mixture!!

[@JosephSciola]

I first watched this video a few weeks ago, but am just now deciding to comment. I’m glad the algorithm pushed this video into my feed. Yona Of The Dawn just appealed to my tastes so much. I just learned there is an anime of it and it is on Crunchyroll. Looking to see how I enjoy the story as an anime before I consider picking up the Manga Volumes for it.

[@ColleensMangaRecs]

So happy to hear that!! I will say that I personally wasn't a huge fan of the anime and enjoy the manga SOOO much more.

[@JosephSciola]

​@@ColleensMangaRecs After the first episode, I got the impression they did the same thing as the original Sailor Moon anime and tried to make it have a broader appeal when the manga was a straight Shoujo. I would also like to say that this video being a recommendation list also inspired me to make a video I'm working on recommending some short-lived Shonen Jump series that I think people would enjoy.

[@gamingn6451]

This video popped up in my recommended, and wow! What a great premise for a series. I might check out Sacrificial Princess. I've never watched your TikToks, but do you have a recommendation for Beastars? That would be my pick!

If you don't wanna wait until my next round of this series, I have my thread of old episodes linked in my description! It has Beastars in it. Otherwise I'll make sure to add it next time around too.

Also let’s not forget Alice gakuen, they were the original baha but instead of quirk they use Alices. The manga was dark too.

[@Katt1721]

Okay YES. The Kaze Hikaru situation is SO STUPID, like obviously fans will quickly lose interest in the series/not bother starting to collect it when it takes that long to release. I truly don't understand it, it doesn't seem to make a ton of business sense for Viz either compared to other "still-slow, but at least a bit more timely" releases. Also, while the One Piece/Yona connection makes sense on their action/adventure genre + worldbuilding aims alone, my biggest connection between the two was that I used to always joke that Hak was basically just Zoro with a shoujo bent (i.e. more emotional development esp with various character relationships) and an actual romantic bone in his body, as slight as it may be lmao. This comparison may or may not have been due to Zoro being an early childhood crush way back when US Monthly Shonen Jump was a thing haha

Vanitas no Karte already has a lot of cross-demographic appeal but I’d love to hear your take on a similar shoujo (because I’m desperate). Personally, the Yonagi and Chiyoko rivalry had me in a chokehold back when Act-Age was still a thing. I’d recommend Glass Mask as a good shoujo equivalent with the Maya vs Ayumi rivalry they had, but it’s also unlikely to ever be completed with the author having gone off into a cult and everything. I’ve also seen people recommend Skip Beat but I’d personally say Skip Beat’s more similar to Oshi no Ko with the broader focus on showbiz and both the MCs being driven by revenge + having more romance.
