A Shonen anime where one or both parents aren’t missing or unknown? That sounds impossible. It’s just one of the many tropes of the genre and Demon Slayer is no different. However, while we do know what happened to the main protagonist’s family, witnessing the Kamado family massacre firsthand, it’s Inosuke’s father that’s the real

Relationships are a big focus of Sousou No Frieren and it’s not hard to see why. Even putting aside the possible romantic implications like Fern liking Stark, the bonds between the characters are quite easily the heart and soul of the series. And that’s why questions of romantic and platonic love are so common amongst
Okay, by now we’ve all seen the One Piece live-action, and even the normies know who Usopp is. But the real ones are waiting for the least combative member of the Straw Hat Pirates to finally become God Usopp. And hey, evolution of characters is kind of a given in Shonen franchises such as One
I’m not saying that Eren’s IQ isn’t probably on the higher end of things. But after that controversial ending to Attack On Titan, it’s easy to see why people might have some reservations about how Eren Yaeger, our protagonist, used said intellect.

I think Berserk Of Gluttony is one of those few manga that doesn’t make its romance plot into something completely perverse, despite the ‘Dark Fantasy’ label. I mean, the question isn’t even about Roxy being in love with Fate, or vice versa, but rather how their bond manifests into something more complicated than that. Is
The situation where a previously superpowered individual goes ahead and loses what makes them special is still a great trope of Shonen anime. Like, we don’t get to see it too much anymore, but when it is utilized, it is done well. It ups the stakes almost instantly and makes for such a delicious plot
One Piece has its fair share of some of the most incredible villains we have seen in Shounen. I mean, after more than 2 decades of publishing, that’s sort of a given. So, when some of those villains are defeated and never seen from then on ever again? Well, it can be sad in its
So, you know how we used to scoff at no one being able to recognize Superman as Clark Kent, just because he wore glasses and changed clothes? Yeah, I’m starting to think there was some logic there. Even something as simple as glasses can work great as a disguise, especially when paired with a different
