No backgrounds, every character has to have million flowers around them, plain girls are not plain at all.
Wyatt Sanchez
Because they don't use 3D backgrounds like all of Shonen
Sebastian Sanders
Women can't write interesting female characters just like how men can't write interesting male characters.
Nicholas Mitchell
>every character has to have million flowers around them
why do they do this????
Juan Lewis
It's manga for girls and girls like flowers, not sure to be honest.
Eli Gutierrez
There's a lot of shoujo with great art. Widen your horizons OP
Easton Ward
name 3 without the stereotypical art style please
Justin Reyes
Not only art. The classic shoujo in a highschool setting is pretty much dead and rightfully so.
Nowadays it's all yuri, villainess or another sort of isekai.
Lincoln James
It really depends on the manga. I think the bar for art quality is lower in shoujo manga though, and also they tend to fill backgrounds with screentones more than shonen or seinen manga do which gives them some kind of weird dreamy effect at times.
Liam Campbell
To be fair you need a have a very high IQ to enjoy shoujo paneling
Camden Mitchell
the screentones is what bothers me, looks like blurry shit that shouldn't be there. Thankfully modern shoujo do it a lot less

I find Maki Youko's art style really cute, especially in her latest works.
Too bad her stories are garbage.

akatsuki no yona is amazing user
Henry Kelly
Isn't that just a quick and easy reusable background?

I don't think these look stereotypical shoujo. There's a lot of shoujo manga nowadays that have evolved from the weird bug eye look.
Aiden Carter
I fucking love shojou.
Lucas Lewis
that looks fucking disgusting
Ian Gomez
Andrew Kelly
amazingly shit maybe
Jace Bailey
Nirvana is serialized as a shoujo manga that somehow has the look and feel of a shounen
Grayson Cox
Men can’t write interesting female characters either
Sebastian Carter
>every character has to have million flowers around them
But this is kino and one of the best visual tropes in manga
Bentley Wright
Akatsuki no Yona is great and romance aside, has good plot and world building.
Noah Allen
you will never be a female

Shoujo is too high IQ for men to understand

What about artists that switched from Seinen/Shounen to Shoujo?
