Ep. 30: Shoujo Genre Exploration - Maid-Sama and Ouran Host Club ft. Dannie from Anime Summit Podcast!
We are crazy excited to welcome Dannie from the Anime Summit Podcast onto the show this week. We picked a topic we had essentially zero experience in and were extremely lucky Dannie was willing to come on and speak to the Shoujo genre of anime. This week we talk through our thoughts on the Top 2 Shoujo Anime as rated by My Anime List, The Ouran Host Club and Maid-Sama!
Shoujo literally stands for "girl" or "young woman" in Japanese. Therefore it is easy to guess that it is aimed at the readership that mostly consists of teenage girls and young women. The first shoujo magazine ever was published in 1903 and it is interesting that the majority of shoujo artists were actually male. Only after the 1960s did female artists start emerging from the shadows and presenting their works, inspired by the post-war events, American TV shows and female empowerment. - MyAnimeList.com u/FreeNightFalls
