With Naruto on its way out the door, which shounen is taking its place as part of the HST? Fairy Tail?

Berserk.

Berserk is a josei manga though.

Sakura Trick then.

Highschool dxd, obviously.

Well, I came to this thread for serious suggestions and I only see f*ck yous being posted.

Why am I calling them that? Because when I read your suggestions, I think, "F*ck you."

You're welcome.

Give Nanatsu no Taizai a read. It's much better than Fairy Tail and even the remaining HST mangas, IMO. It's very underrated and deserves more talk than it gets. Hell, I like NnT even more than Dragon Ball and YuYu Hakusho.

WTF? That sounds amazing!

But you also told me you love the shit out of the Magi manga which I found boring.

Im blown away by how little attention Hajime no ippo gets. It became the number one shounen in my books behind DBZ. It should be taking the anime world by storm. We'll see how the next season goes though cant wait

Hopefully something like Magi. It'll most likely be Gintama or Toriko since I hear they're pretty big in Japan.

I wish the creator of HunterxHunter was well enough to continue the story. I think it would be a strong contender.

I'm still only a fourth of the way through.

Toriko.

I'm surprised you don't read it, Neme. It's 90% absurdly buff guys and homo-eroticism.

I don't read that much long-running shonen manga these days to be honest. These days I usually read short series (like the work of Junji Ito) or just watch anime.

You're actually right imo. I forgot all about Toriko. It does make the most sense given the fact that they went so far as to do a crossover with One Piece and Dragonball as well.

Yeah, I was also thinking Toriko. It's also Shonen Jump at that.

Such a shame too.

But his HxH be on point though. It was easily my favorite anime of the year. Though I'm extremely late to an anime that should be right up my alley, I'm very much in love with JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.

Though I'm extremely late to an anime that should be right up my alley, I'm very much in love with JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. HxH is the best shonen I've read. The manga is notorious for having doodle-like art at times but when he steps it up it's almost like Berserk or Vagabond level art. The new anime is the same as the manga but it has consistent decent art. Also, half of Naruto's part 1 stuff is "borrowed" from HxH.

I may have to stick with it if HxH is that good. Started the first episode on Netflix the other night and it wasnt grabbing me.

Trust me, you're going to want to stick with it. It gets real and sick as it progresses. It's all about pacing, my man.

BTW, am I the only one who sees this title and can't help but think of the first Sideshow Bob episode?

"Big shoes to fill.....

Big shoes to fill.....

Big shoes to fill..........."

I don't watch the Simpsons.

Welp, that was a beautiful friendship while it lasted.

Tonight is the Simpsons/Futurama crossover tho. I'm so phucking there!

It may take some time before any really reach the level of popularity, but Fairy Tail is the closest, yea.


The next really big one may be something new.


Hm, I wonder about UQ Holder too. That may be a possibility.

What's a Sympson? How would you know what Something Bub is without watching whatever a Sympson is?

Has to be Gintama most likely.

I didn't say I loved it. I just enjoyed it more than D.Gray-Man. At least I gave a serious answer since Nanatsu no Taizai is an actual shounen instead of giving a troll answer like "HURR DURR Berserk LOL!".

Well, Nanatsu no Taizai has been getting a lot of love in Japan. Some of the volumes have even been outselling One Piece lately and it has a really spot on anime adaptation. It's also still relatively new and established itself.

Than what is it? Shoujo?

I'm on chatper 4, right now. It is alright. It is not amazing. But it isn't even remotely bad, though.

Wow, if true, that's a very good sign! Yea, sounds like it may be a top contender.

HxH has so much potential.
But the hiatuses ruins it's HST contention.

Right now, Gintama seems to be the most likely candidate for HST, with Toriko and Fairy Tale not trailing behind.

World Trigger, It's what im reading at the moment and it's pretty damn good.

Oh! There's another recent one that's really good and doing quite well: Blue Exorcist.
