Shonen (pronounced
/So:nen/) is a style of
anime and
manga intended for boys, but that may have a crossover appeal to girls
as well. Some good examples are
Gundam Wing,
Dragon Ball Z, and
Fist of the North Star. Anime and manga for college age men is called
seinen, though shonen and seinen are often lumped together by
Westerners.
Also spelt "shounen", which is technically more
correct regarding the
Kana.
In
Japanese script, the word "shonen" is written 少年 which literally means
young boys. Its
hiragana are しょうねん.

shoujo, anime and manga intended for girls.
