What Genre are you?

(1/9) > >>

Marie:
This has always been an interesting topic to me - it's neat to see what genre people typically lean to and their reasons for that. Was talking about this with Jackie earlier and started wondering why we're drawn to the series we're drawn to and if there was any type of trend in that and so here we are, sharing that discussion with everyone else!

So, if you could only pick one genre to read for the rest of time, what genre would you choose? Are you a die-hard shounen fan? A romantic gone for shoujo? Does boys love make your heart skip a beat, or do you prefer girl's love? Perhaps you're more on the mature side and prefer a slice of seinen or josei? How about a good mecha? Are you a mixed salad? Well, the latter is too bad, because you can only pick one. :hug:


Personally, I'm definitely Boy's Love - as much as I love Pirates Shounen, the boy pr0n never lets me down and gives me a bit of everything! :P if you know what I mean.

Jackie:
Aaaah.  I'm a mixed salad.  But since I can only choose ONE, I would say shounen.  The majority of the series that I like are shounen.  Despite the ENDLESS BATTLING and RIDICULOUS GODLIKE POWER-UPS and occasionally GRATUITOUS FANSERVICE.  *shakes fist*  And a really good shounen series will either surpass those faults or avoid them altogether.  *hugs FMA as an example of of a good shounen manga avoiding MAJOR PITFALLS*

Sarah:
Um, so this is super tough, good job, Taichou. :|

I think I do enjoy a good shoujo too much for my own good and fhsjfhsf all the pink- and fluffyness is what's doing me in, but then again, when I think of NANA and what it does to me every month.. I'm not sure if I could deal with only the angst that shoujo comes with, LOL. So if I had to choose one genre to read for the rest of my life.. I'd definitely pick Shounen too. *snugs Jackieness* I just love my super heroes, all of them.

..also, not like I can't get my fair-share of romance out of Shounen either.

Kula:
Mhh, very difficut, but to be sincere I must choose Boy's Love. They have all that I really need (but I also love shojo and shonen a lot t_t)

Shalott:
Argh, argh tough question since I do love me a good dose of fighting manga. But if I had to pick one genre I would probably go with Josei. I prefer the more mature storylines and the fact that I might not always get a happy ending, but the characters won't make me want to beat them silly like they tend to do in shoujo and shounen. It's too bad it isn't a more popular category!

But omg so hard because I think I really like most genres equally, with the exception of Boy's/Girl's Love. :P
