EN/ I tried to put one shojo per year when it was possible. So it's normal if there is not everything. I also made a more complete version afterwards, which you can find.
For the choice of anime, I chose to take what are adapted from a shojo manga or which have had adaptations in shojo manga magazines. Since, "anime shojo" doesn't really exist by definition.

Hi everyone, my complet shojo video came out after copyright complications for over a year. There are some small error that I can't change because the file is lost but I did my best.

Im Sorry
これからのかんばつてく ださい
Esta restringido 😭
The fact that I watched all these says a lot. I wish they return to making animes with this style like Cardcaptor Sakura and sailor moon and such. Miss this kind of animes
Tokyo Mew Mew is coming soon ;)
@@paru-chinbaka5214 it won't be the same if the alien boy doesn't come back and end up with Mc xd
@@lxlYukilxl He has never ended up with the MC in every media. What are you talking about? I still don't understand why people like him.
@@miyako1909 Forbidden love is fun!!
Pior que você tem razão 😥
Surprised Ouran High School Host Club wasn't included. The fans are still waiting for their season 2.
Seriously, OHSHC needs and deserves a reboot.
This!
It can't have a season 2, it'd need a full remake following the manga
@@satapon4129 True. Like, with the fake Haruhi and the move to Boston and all that stuff...
YES
@@satapon4129 wait, i didn't know that ouran host club has a manga :0
its actually very interesting to see how the music and genre changes throughout the years
Shoujo anime:
Before 2000- magical girls
After 2000- school life
Good point
It is because Sailor Moon paved the way for shoujo back then
AND Clannad?
You forgot it’s magical girls and sports
@@atresaoxxx3573 😟?? Sports?? And no not only magical girls lol Sailor Moon is so much more than just that. You can look at the general sales or how much people interested in shoujo genre before and after Sailor Moon
The older romance animes from the 1990s-2000s are *the best* imo, and progressively aren't _so good._ Not saying the future ones are bad, but-
Classics are just 💋👌✨always in the heart.
That really is the peak of shoujo romance. Nowadays there are so few manga adaptations so like the shoujo anime scene is really small. The manga these days tho are really good - it’s sad because there are so many shoujo manga hits that do just as well as shounen and are never adapted into anime. Ugh makes so sad for shoujo lovers!!
@@ilhanyusuf2160 do you mind recommending some? I love reading romance mangas
2001 Fruits2 Basket dude…
Yeah! I really loved the romance between Sakura Kinomoto and Shaoran Li and it's still my favourite romance hahahahah
@@theystolemycrabs6717 for sure! I’ll try to diversify my recs so you get a bit of everything!
Honey lemon soda (super duper popular - very pretty art and cute school life story)
Black bird (darker tones - a lot more spice, but also very cute supernatural romance)
A sign of affection (a hearing impaired mc! Super nice art and very wholesome romance)
Kare Kano (a classic shoujo - two flawed mc growing up - sort of a coming of age romance)
Mairimashita Senpai (cute school life shoujo! It’s really realistic and no unnecessary drama)
QQ Sweeper (this is an action! Still has romance, but it has other themes - cleaning plays an interesting role in the story)
Lovesick Ellie (lmaooo this is a romcom through and through! The mc is relatable as hell - it’s so wholesome)
Dengeki Daisy (this one is really cool because we don’t know the whole story until the end - the progressive reveal is refreshing!)
Red river (historical romance - I literally love this one so much! Shinohara chie is a genius and I recommend any of her works)
Namaikizakari (school romance - we have an apathetic and cold fl and a clingy almost equally apathetic (😂?) ml! It’s a unique dynamic! )
Usotsuki rhetoric (mystery historic manga! Fl can read minds and because of that she’s struggled a lot in life - not as much romance, but it’s a still one of my favs)
Uruwashi no Yoi no tsuki (I actually haven’t read much of this, but the art is gorgeous - the fl sort of struggles with coming across as more masculine and she feels limited by her “prince like” features)
Beniiro Hero (had to include a sports shoujo! Basically haikyu w a female main character - she struggles through the game, but also she struggles with the limits her family put on her - they don’t support her playing volleyball)
Power! (Lmao it’s a genderbender, sports comedy! Basically the fl dresses as a boy and she plays basketball - it’s so fucking hilarious it’s crazy!)
W-Juliet (this was my favourite manga for the longest time - another genderbender but it’s a boy having to dress as a girl because his family does not support his acting career - it’s complicated to explain but it’s a super wholesome romance!)
I apologize for typos and rambling - it’s 2am and I had a lot of fun compiling this list! Hope it helps!
2000’s was the best, I feel like shoujo is slowly declining and I miss the good old days with legendary stories like kimi ni todoke and maid-sama 😭
I watched the 2008 until 2016 but I thought Orange was Josei, not shoujo. Also you shoupd rewatch Maid Sama, you wouldn't want a guy like Takumi in real life. To always stalk you, lift up your skirt, blackmail you of sharing that picture of you in a maid outfit, and then give you a hickey even when you aren't dating
I like the 2000s too but more because of it's magical gurl animes like pretty cure or mermaid melody (specially pretty cure)
NGL maid sama was mid, and takumi has no personality and still managed to be creepy
@@naylisyazwina6836 second male syndrome was strong in that anime. As you said, that guy was veryy creepy. And I feel like there's a lot of potential in modern mangas, but there's more anime adaptations of seinen. Which is unfortunate cause it usually objectifies women or doesn't have strong female characters at all.
@@naylisyazwina6836 i think it’s probably bc people watched it when they were young so they’re just blindsided by the nostalgia. I can think of like so many more shoujo animes that are have toxic relationships/male leads but people still talk about them today bc of the nostalgia
Omg you added Gakuen Alice. I am still obsessed. The manga got really dark at the end. Y'all should definitely read it!😍
Gakuen alice is my absolute favourite manga, I second this recommendation! ♡
Gakuen Alice is a legend and it kind of grew with its audience. And it’s so different from a lot a shojo manga.
That’s very true the manga is a whole new thing compared to the anime, it’s totally gooood and sad
the same thing with skip beat the manga has the best plots compared to the anime

Is it just my impression or older anime were actually more progressive than contemporary?
I agree.
…glad they stopped that.
@@dog_curry Doing what? Creating well rounded characters and healthy relationships?
utena for sure but i'm not sure what else you're referring to in this video
@@leef6234 many old animes were about girls who fight like ribbon no kishi or about girls doing sports in a no sexualized way, so its pretty progressive compared to this kind of anime today!
@@dog_curry Okay buddy…..
Candy Candy has a soft spot in my heart, as well as my mom's. The story holds up surprisingly well even if the animation itself is noticeably dated. A reboot would be really nice if they stayed faithful to the original story.
if anything candy candy made me so depressed cuz candy is such a sweet girl but some or the other way her happiness would get ruined
I love Candy Candy. As you said, me too I would love a reboot to be able to enjoy it all over again, and to make more people discover and fall in love with that wonderful story
During that time since the 1970's and to 1980's most shoujo anime are only popular in thailand,philippines and in south korea because these were the only countries in asia aside japan where people accept female characters as heroes in an animated tv show.
estas menospreciando a Latinoamerica donde las Reynas eran las protagonistas mujeres más en las telenovela.
@@hotaru7892 sorry i don't understand what your saying, can you comment in english?

@@chrisryaninchoco324 this is what he designed I'm going to tell you if I say something wrong in English it's because I'm with the google translator
well now I will translate what he said
you are underestimating Latin America where the queens, that is, women were the main female protagonists in telenovelas and series
What he is telling you is that in Latin America since 1966 women have always been the protagonists and you know it bothers me that you speak without knowing, okay? not to offend or anything
(Español)esto es loque el dise te lo voy a decir si digo algo mal en ingles es porque estoy con el traductor de google
bueno ahora te traducire loque el dijo
estas menospreciando a latinoamerica donde las reinas osea mujeres eran son las protagonistas mujeres mas en la telenovela y series
loque te esta diciendo es que siempre en latinoamerica desde los 1966 las mujeres an sido las protagonista y sabes me molesta que hables sin saber okey? no es por ofender ni nada
bueno perdón por la falta de autografia😅
well a lot of text XD
(bueno mucho texto XD)
y perdón por meterme en su pelea UnU
@RandomPasserby OnTheInternet If the person is talking in English, answer in English. Is that basic darling.
surprised fushigi yuugi, escaflowne, nana, paradise kiss, cutie honey f, a lull in the sea, shugo chara, & fancy lala weren't listed!
Also Kamichama no Karin
Nana and paradise kiss are josei adult girls not teenager girls
Escaflowne was shoujo but mostly shounen. I loved that it was a mix - such a legendary anime.
Fushigi Yuchi did deserve to be on here though.
Right!!
the first person I’ve seen mention fancy lala
Really wish we could go back to the amazing shojo era. We barely get one or two shojo anime in a year now but i feel like the newer announcements look really promising
Yes! Cant wait to new adaptation of requiem of the rose king! (Even tho it's not like a regular shoujo type of manga, but it's still a shoujo manga)
I never really had the chance to watch a lot of them in my childhood due to parenting and family situations. I'm an adult now and watching everyone's "nostalgia" show like Sailor Moon feels different. Still enjoyable, but no memory.
Kimi no Todoke was the first anime I helplessly fell for the moment we had an internet connection, from all the cute artwork I could find, but I had to wait years before we had a proper connection that could handle big downloads
No need to feel the nostalgia. Just be glad you’re alive and get to experience it
@@enjisilverstone-nolongerac7533 that’s true. It’s being happy that matters at last. Very grateful that I am able to enjoy such a masterpiece
@@enjisilverstone-nolongerac7533 ,жақсы айттыңыз
Im super happy Kodocha was included the thumbnail but sad that show, and Kare Kano (His and Her Circumstances) was left out makes me so sad because to me its THE best Shoujo anime 😢
Kare Kano is the best artistic funny lovely emotional sensitive lively mature animation series ever made. Simply put - the only one and never topped. (Though some original movies may be on par whith Kare Kano)
In other words....I love KareKano a lot.
And Kodocha is incredibly funny, but I haven't watched it till the end yet.
@@arlekino0792 THANK YOU! The art direction in that show is beautiful and thought provoking and touches very serious issues while also being so fucking hilarious. The animation, the music, the way they decide to convey the scenes and switch between manga and animated, even the ending credits where its that camera on the robot driving around, that so creative!! I have the series on dvd and ive always loved it. I see people editing aesthetic amv's to it but over all I think it gets over looked and people dont talk about it.
And Kodocha makes me laugh and cry so much. I loved the english dub for it (honestly also kare kano). The Japanese version has more expressed than the dub so it switched over. I eventually went to read the manga and boy does that shit get dark
@@arlekino0792 kodocha the manga gets darker than the anime
Agreee
@RandomPasserby OnTheInternet Kare Kano manga is so wild. Mangaka included guns and revenge plots.
(SPOILERS FOR ENDING)
Asaba Hideaki is my fav character (waving Niina Junpei banner here). But in manga his destiny is....I don't want to believe in such destiny. It's like Masami Tsuda don't want to release him for good. Asapin was with the couple from the start, but didn't get enough time to really feel like family for them. But in the end he will live with Yukino and Souchiro 'till death will separate all of them. Somewhere near the end Masami Tsuda laments on his loneliness and wishes best out of the best girlfriend for him. It became gross really fast, 'cause mangaka hints on FREACKING DAUGHTER OF SOUICHI. I hate this destiny, but I believe in Bambi supremacy.
GO, TEAM BAMBI!!!
Overall, manga is wild, but not a masterpiece. Though I awe the Gainax anime ver.
I miss the old style of animes and the shoujo style ! They jst destroyed everything for few perverts and their preference 😭 a sad fact
They make everything for males now… the content that they’re making is making males even more perverted. They just cater to degenerate pedophiles, it’s sick
industry change, that style probably not look good in digital drawing.
I noticed that too! Some of the animes in the mid 2010s had nerdy male leads and it seemed kinda fan servicey. 🤮 its to sad
The isekai genre ruined everything
@@enjisilverstone-nolongerac7533 so f true
I missed Lady Georgie,Heidi,Marmalade Boy and Ashita no Nadja.I love Lady Oscar,Candy Candy,Lady Lady,Pichi pichi pitch and Sukiite ina yo. Thank you 💟
Was hoping to see Ashita no Nadja here 🤧
@@Esbunnies Me too!
IKR?the heck, where's swan for 80s shoujo anime?? Where's the mystery shoujo like Kobato?
Princess Tutu, Ashita no Nadja, UFO baby, Save me! Lollipop, Hime-chan no Ribbon, Shugo Shara e outros mais fizeram parte da minha pre-adolescência e adolescência ❤️
昔のアニメと今のアニメは大きく変わったけど、こういう昔のアニメの雰囲気や音声とかすごく好き、今じゃ出せない味があって凄く良い、
Kimi Ni Todoke being the only entertainment to have portrayed what pure and real love is🥺
Ore Monogatari is also pure though. How Rinko see through what's inside Takeo and fall in love with him is pure love. How Takeo grow to be more confident with himself after he learn that there's someone out there who love him without seeing his physical appearance is totally pure too. Also how Suna show that a real friends stick to protect and encourage his friend is also pure too. I love Kimi Ni Todoke but to say that it's the only show that potray what a pure and real love is kind of not true.
@@haryantimuda984 yea but like rinko totally found takeo hot didn't she!! still so cute plus they weren't dense af unlike sawako and kazehaya
There is tsuki ga kirei also
>Karekano has entered the chat
also snow white with the red hair
Feels like the last really big shoujo anime were Orange & the Fruits Basket reboot. I miss the 2010s were we had Kaichou wa Maid-sama, AO HARU RIDE, Kimi ni todoke, Sukitte ii na yo... it was the golden age of High School romance + reverse Harem (Diabolik Lovers, UtaPri, Brothers Conflict...) but Shoujo Anime is kind of a dead genre atm TT
I thunk it's getting better tbh we have 6-7 shojo coming this year and next hopefully we can get more anazing shojo like the previous ones
Orange is fine but fb involves pedo so its disgusting and has bad influences.
Kaichou wa maid sama 😭😭😭 usui will always be my #1
HoriMiya has great potential. I've read the manga a long time ago and waited patiently for it to have a decent anime. When it did, well, we know how it went 😅
@@irumi1318 wait horimiya is a shonen genre
I remember back in the old days where I used to watch animes like this over and over again even though I've already finished it,the first shoujo I've watched was Fruits Basket, I guess that was what kept me addicted from the others like Kimi ni todoke, kaichou wa maid sama, the wall rose,bokura ga ITA and many more ☺️
Toute mon enfance la dedans ! Merci beaucoup pour votre vidéo. TH-cam en manquait cruellement. Vive la TV française qui nous a permis de découvrir tout ça >
Oui ^^
En plus dedans y'a mon premier anime.
Est-ce que ya Jeanne et Serge dans la vidéo ?
Ok. That's good news :)
anyone notice how light hearted shoujo got after the 2000s (at least compared to the 70-80s) i dont really know much about the harmful books act but im guessing that publishers dont want to risk making more manga with dark content.
And yet, dark content and ecchi are allowed in shonen and seinen manga
U know, I love the classic shoujo animes but there are quite a lot of good recent shoujo mangas with no anime yet , like dengeki daisy manga, taiyou no ie, love so life, living room matsunaga San, qq sweepers/queen's quality, beast master and koukou debut manga. Or the anime that were stopped even before the best parts of the stories were covered like Kamisama Hajimemashita, Skip beat, Akatsuki no yona, ao haru ride, sukitte li na yo, maid sama and etc
The best things about these mangas are they have great characters with memorable moments, doesn't rely on fanservice, have MCs that are strong, independent, smart and also have steadily progressing love story and relationship building with each other and other characters. The Plots are not so typical/cliche either.
It is sad to know that shoujo mangas are often ignored
Omg my childhood❤️❤️
card captor sakura,pitch pitch pitch,gakuen alice,vampire knight , daa daa daa,idol densetsu eriko ,aishite knight,Alpen rose,Kamikazo kaitou Jeanne ,sugar sugar run,Kimi ni todoke,kaichou wa maid sama
Thank u so much😭👏🏻🌹❤️

Los animés del ayer son joyas belleza en masa
A lots of great old school shoujo animes from the '70s and '80s I never watched! I think I'll have a lot to watch yet. :)
If you have not watch candy candy yet, yo need too now!!!! Your heart will break
@@daisydupe3076 where can I watch it?
I wish there were more anime like akatsuki no yona, wolf girl black prince. Sadly I couldn't find a single anime which has similar story or concept. They're one of kind shoujo♡
bro u cannot compare those two akayona is universes above wolf girl black prince
@@kappanova680 fr I mean no offense to op but wolf girl is wild compared to masterpieces like yona fruba and all the others
Yona reminded me a lot of my first real shoujo anime, Fushigi Yuugi. I think it's on Crunchyroll.
Maybe try also Snow White with the Red Hair.
Akatsuki no yona, Kamisama kiss, OHHS, Shirayuki no hime, maid sama... these hit differently😭😭
Wow, Mitsuko Horie sure sang lots of openings! She was the JP version of Claude Lombart!
I recognized like 90% of these animes, except for the oldest!
Almost everyone in JAM Project currently or previously is a long time singer for japanese anime openings. That definitely includes Ms. Horie too.
Omg she has such an extensive discography singing anime osts 😭 and she started young, like she was only 14 or smthing for mahou magic etc
I miss shoujos. They need to bring more of them to American and adapt more shoujo mangas into animes. As much fun as seinen are, there is something so extra about shoujos.
shoujo animes had that heartwarming cup of tea
Bibilophile Princess in the next season. Shoujo is coming back as Otome Isekai
Disagree on that, I don't find shojos superior in any way quite the opposite. They are so naive and infantile I couldn't stand them as a teen even, there are some good ones obviously, there are always exceptions but for me and many other people that sugary naivety is what brings the genre down so we just don't bother with it
Alatsuki no Yona is literally the only shoujo I can think of of the top of my head that I actually liked, I'm sure there were more but not that memorable to me I guess
@@musehivision8974 Also “My Happy Marriage” is expected its anime release this year! Can’t wait for it
cardcaptor sakura really was ahead of it’s time personally. compare it to sailor moon which was a few years before. ccs (cardcaptor sakura) had an advanced magic system with the clow and sakura cards. also the fact that she created cards without thinking about it. all of this really contributed to the greatest (imo) magical girl series of all time : )
The first half i can half agree but card creating part is only introduced in the 2019 sequel Clear. I don't think it counts. As far as the orginal, the story ended after Eriol gave up half of his power to Sakura
@@musehivision8974 ah! sorry i haven’t watched it in a while
Some of the old anime looks really cute and interesting plus I never knew sailor moon came out in 1992 no wonder I loved the show so much
Ofc same i know sailor moon isy favourite anime it was my childhood
Fruits Basket, Tokyo Mew Mew, Vampire Knight, Kaichou wa maid-sama and the others shoujos.... OMG THE NOSTALGIA
I wish they made more anime likes those
2000-2016 shoujo anime was my childhood, I wish they could make shoujo anime like this again😭😭😭💋💋
Some animes from this video that I've watched growing up:
- Sailor Moon
- Wedding Peach
- card captor sakura
- kamikaze kaito jeanne
- fruits basket ( I still love this one)
- sugar sugar rune (Never really liked it)
- say I love you
- wolf girl
- orange
Omg orange yess
It's really underrated
I really liked the anime, and really happy you enjoyed it too😁❤️❤️
@@Appledog01 yes I love it. I don't like romance animes a lot but this one was really good.
Sugar Sugar Rune was good but I didn’t like Vanilla that much
I still can sing the theme song of the first 2 (in indonesian) until now when i was 32 y.o like i was back then when i was 8.
@@enjisilverstone-nolongerac7533 yes Vanilla was the problem the was really annoying 😑
i honestly miss the type of the older animations... they are my childhood
I'm begging for a new shoujo anime to come out without any echhi or perverted scenes.
Does Saint's magic is omnipotent count?
shoujo animes don't usually have ecchi or perverted scenes though. But most shonen do
This video brought me so much joy, nostalgia and more unexplainable feelings, thank you so much💕💕
Me crié con sailor moon,sakura card captor, candy candy, mamalade boy, wedding peach, gakuen alice,lovely complex, vampire nigth, kimi no todoke, kaichou maid sama, sukiite ii na yo, Ookami shoujo to kuro ouji, ore monogatari, orange orange, 3D kanojo, el del gatito tambien lo vi es muy lindo pero siempre estaran en mi corazon los anime mas viejitos 😊
Tengo que verme algunos de esos
Que gatito?
@@shinobukocho1573 Creo que se refiere a tokyo mew mew
Ustedes los latinos se perdieron de MUCHO que tuvimos en Europa y jamás vieron, pero buena lista de shoujo ;)
Entonces tienes más de 35 si te criaste viendo sailor moon como yo
i'm a simple man if i've see Yona-hime, i need click. Sad for her dosen't show up but great video. So nostalgic :)
Literally Tokyo Mew Mew and Mermaid Melody are the only shoujo that I watch (not all of the episodes though). It's just so cool to see girls transforming
Magical girls is a genre. Watch more stuff.
@@reflectingPastChoices And thanks for telling me to watch more stuff! I haven't watched any magical girls, so I am an idiot.
So good!! I love shoujo anime’s, particularly the vintage ones... I’ve noticed that you forgot to put in your video “Lady Georgie”
Thank you so much :)
Since I only put one Shojo anime per year, some Shojo have gone by the wayside like Georgie for example but also Akatsuki no Yona and many others
lovely complex will forever be my favorite romcom, that anime is hilarious and i just love koizumi and ootani together.
So much of my childhood in one video.
Merci beaucoup pour votre superbe vidéo!
You're welcome, content que ça fasse plaisir :)
@@captain-nisaka9667
The Rose of Versailles is a Masterpiece. This anime changed me forever and in comparison all of the other titles are just irrelevant to me.
So glad to see Lovely Complex included!! I just watched/read it and I’m obsessed.
Really cool mashup ! Just wanted to mention that 2 major shoujo anime are missing : princess Sarah and Kilari.
Minutos:
5:30, Salior Moon
6:15, Las Guerreras Mágicas
7:25, Sakura Card Captor
11:53, Wolf girl and Black Prince
Utena stood on a league of its own. Its my favorite anime.
Дякую вам! У 90-ті роки в Україні, де я живу, на національному телебаченні транслювали Кенді, Кенді і Сейлормун. Над Кенді, Кенді плакали і сміялися всі дівчата, надзвичайно емоційне аніме! А Сейлормун я включила своїй дочці, щоб познайомити зі спадком мого дитинства. З подивом дочка дізналася, що декілька дівчат підлітків з її класу теж зараз живляться це аніме =)
1984 - glass mask
1992 - sailor moon
1998 - cardcaptor sakura
1999 - kamikaze kaitou jeanne
So happy to see Magic Knight Rayearth on this list, I loved it as a kid :')
Damn, the 80s really brought their A game! It definitely feels like that's where the envelope started to be pushed just a bit (after the 60s and slightly better 70s).
It's pretty clear that that push was what brought the 90s crashing in like thunder - bringing fighting heroines, gorgeous magical girl sequences, and plot and storylines that would make the history books of shoujo.
I was born in 90 and got hooked on Dragonball in 94. As much as I detested "girly" things though, in secret, I can recall watching Sailor Moon and being absolutely entranced. Even though I was nothing like those characters, the feeling it anyways left me with made me feel like I could take on anything. I felt cool and pretty and confident, even if only inside where I'd let no one else see.
Looking back on the 2000s shoujo, I feel it perfectly captures my memories of being a teenager. Fruits Basket (and later its remake) was some of the best anime possibly ever created (impo), reaching past it's shoujo roots and ensnaring fans of all sorts of other genres with it. Bokura ga Ita and Lovely Complex were my last push before reaching "adulthood."
The next decade was kinda hit or miss. Stuff like Maid-sama didn't even feel like shoujo. It felt like it was more harem-y disguised as shoujo? I never got the feeling that girls were the primary audience for stuff like that. But then there were others like Say I Love You and My Love Story that just HIT. And don't even get me started on Orange... similar to Fruits Basket, I felt that it transcended the shoujo genre in a way that invited fans of all backgrounds in to enjoy (and hurt).
I'm a little surprised and bummed that Ouran High School Host Club isn't on here, nor Anohana (or Lucky Star??). Those were definitely on another level. 😌👌🏻
Today, shoujo isn't something I feel embarrassed to admit I enjoy. Thank you for making this video. It was fun and fascinating to watch how the genre has transformed over time.
Bro te lo juro, casi todos los animes que están aquí fueron de mi infancia. Gracias por recopilarlos 🥹🥹🥹🥹
Gakuen Alice is super underrated, sad the full manga did not get made into anime. Somewhat of a dark story too for having little kids as the main characters.
There are some shojo anime titles that did not follow their manga instead they only took out important scenes. A completely underrated anime "Anonymous Noise" [shown on Animax during the 2010's] ended abruptly with a stupid cliffhanger
1:36 this is so well animated and beautiful.
What happened to shoujos man… once we crossed 2010~ things started going downhill…
They aren’t even making them anymore 😭 they wanna force us into watching shonen with no good female characters or lead roles and gross fanservice
@@grabthatgun I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking this way… This is so sad
@@grabthatgun 👀 you've noticed that too? They don't want to make niche things any more so let's try to force josei and shoujo fans into watching some misogynist smut. It's even worse now than ever before IMO. Also why do they keep sexualizing young girls?
I think because of kpop? i'm not really sure but i think the female audience shifted from shoujo anime or mangas to kpop idols 🤔 just a hunch
just cause there's less shoujo that doesn't mean shounen romances are bad there's tons shounen romance ain't harem nor isekai nor rent a girlfriend lol and have great characters and theres many bad shoujos too with one dimensional male characters and many good ones
SpongeBob Yelling Meme: "I freaking love shojo anime! I love the delicate artstyle and sentimental characters!"
アニメは音楽（アニソン）と共にある。
Sailor Moon is my all time favorite series followed by other big hits such as Akatsuki No Yona, Fruits Basket, Cardcaptor Sakura. I also really love Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne, Full Moon Wo Sagashite, Sakura-hime Kaden, Niehime to Kemono No Ou. Also Revolutionary Girl Utena and Princess Tutu...the fantasy shoujo genre really is a blessing
I recommend Gakuen Alice to anyone that loves shoujo! The manga is such a tear-jerker, and it has a beautiful story ♡♡♡
Yeah! it's beautiful, I'm showing this classics to my daughters, and they´re loving them.
We didn't get a decent shoujo since like 2017, WE NEED MORE SHOUJO
Fruits Basket reboot? And Love is War may not say Shoujo but it ticks all the checkboxes.
@@musehivision8974 it's not shoujo at all
My 1st Magical Girl is Sailor Moon I watched long time ago but my staying with Cardcaptor Sakura because it's my favorite Shojo.
Haha same here. I really like both but at first I really hated card captor but it grew on me and eventually I became obsessed and even cut my hair for my first day of middle school to look like sakura's. I got alot of compliments that day for my hair ever in my entire life 🥲 such memories
Oww Candy. My childhood trauma.
Lol same. Forever mourning Anthony
It just makes realize how animations were better in movements of human anatomy . Though best Japanese cartoon animation is Ghibli Studios and I has been while since I watch some other animations . Some are prodigies of their time and some lack luster . The hair has become better over the years .
daamn i didnt realize how old the genre was, but ty for making this 🤗🤗 feels like im reliving my childhood
This is a wonderful comment section so many animes that i used to love but forgot their names have been brought up
Shojo female girls are so empowering and relatable, diverse characters. Does anyone else hate how shonen hypersexualizes female characters :(
Examples are Orihime (Bleach) and Lucy Hartfilla (Fairy Tail) for fanservice.
Um... Shojo still does hypersexualize male characters. Men in Shoujo are often shown as walking giants. Look at Tuxedo Mask and all other important males in Sailor Moon. (Umino doesn't count), they're big, wide-shouldered giants. Seriously, showing men as tall wide-shouldered giants is the same thing as drawing a woman as bikini fighter.
Or what about CLAMP manga? Look at 90's stuff like RG Veda and don't tell me that most males in there don't look like gorgeous bishounen Gigachads. Heck, even Code Geass's Lelouch looks like a bishounen gigachad, he's slim, he's tall, he's imposing. It's basically how those shoujos sexualize men - by focusing on what they love about them. ...Well, better word be objectifying... still.
I LOVE ALL THE ART STYLES, SONGS, EVERYTHING
I see that most of the animes are characterized by students but still the stories are really good, fun and enjoyable to watch.
AA IM SO HAPPY TO SEE LOVELY COMPLX HERE
I like the anime period of the zero and nineties much more than the current slag. It can be seen that in the past, soul and all the forces were put into each frame. Drawing, music, plot - everything was better before. Now it remains only to cry looking at the list of current anime😥
I used to watcg the old fruit basket imagine the happiness of the new one made
1970-1990s style hits so diff 😩 especially onii sama e, rose of versailles, glass mask etc…
0:14 ah yes, Tom & Jerry, my favourite shoujo anime, yes
The 90s and early 2000s openings made me emotional, made me wish I was a kid again :(
While i consider Kaguya-sama now as my favorite shoujo, I'll never forget that Lovely Complex and Sugar Sugar Rune has held that place for a very long time. Really fun and poignant shows
Minky Momo I never seen before but there were popular Minky Momo stationary sets in early 90s . I remember owning one.
HELL YESS there's *Candy Candy* (1976) 🤩no one really knows anime as old as this, so I'm glad to see them listed here :)
I'm surprised this didn't include Boy Over Flowers 😳 I know it came out on the same year with Sailor moon but like, it was super popular, especially after the Korean live action adaption. The F4 joke still live to these days
Yeah it was there!! Boy over flowers are Hana Yori Dango in Japanese 7:00
6:49 *
Can’t believe Vampire Knight was just a year apart from Kimi ni Todoke 😱
Sailor Moon, Rayearth and Card Captor Sakura are my faves out of this whole list.
Ah yes, my favorite type of anime. Grow up with shoujo for it's cute aesthetic and never get tired of it
Sin duda los shoujo antiguos eran demasiado buenos ahora de ese género solamente me veo los mismos y estos feliz de algunos por su reboot :"(
My favorite anime and manga as a kid was Candy Candy. 🥰
CANDY CANDY OMG, MY MOM WATCHED IT WHEN SHE WAS LITTLE AND MADE ME WATCH IT AS WELL I LOVE IT SM
OMG CANDY CANDY I love it so much I remember my mom forced me to watch it when I was younger since it had aired on tv when she was young
Ribbon no kishi was my mom's favorite anime when she was young
y'all are literally sleeping on tokyo mew mew, i've been an obsessive fan and collector of the franchise since i was like 6 or 8
Maybe it's an italian thing, but I could include many more in the 80s and 90s😀
Great video though and thank you for including Versailles No Bara (Lady Oscar, people, do yourself a favour and retrieve it 😍)!
This video only contains one anime per year, hence the lack of many animes. But a more complete video is out if you're interested!

Mwrmaid Melody is what introduced me to anime in 2012. I remember watching this show in my Nintendo 3DS and how I was so excited at middle school during class for night time to arrive so I can watch the next epsiodes. So the intro gives me so much nostalgia already it's only been a decade. I miss those times
2:33 ... el mejor anime shoujo de la historia universal
Candy was a masterpiece. Best shoujo ever
Cardcaptor Sakura and Alice academy were literally my childhood! 😭❤️ I wish they make more like these even today.
Candy Candy, Magic Knight Rayearth, CardCaptorSakura, Miracle Girls, Mew Mew, Mermaid Melody... amazing works 😍🌟 so nostalgic
Nostalgic as fuck and I was born 86 lol. I did hella watch a lot of 80s anime when I was growing up in east Asia. Candy Candy became Georgie in the early 90s when it used to air in the Philippines. Ahh the memories. Shokojo Sera was one of the earliest I watched in very early 90s.
Never watched a lot of shojo but all the opening songs are amazing*^*
I'm shocked you didn't have kodocha/kodomo no omocha in this video since it was in the thumbnail. Such a great shoujo anime!
I just started watching Hikari no desentsu and it’s such a lovely show!!! And such a sweet depiction of high school… I wish it had more recognition, and the animated gymnastics performances are so beautiful. I wish the manga was translated into English, I know some Japanese, I’m not sure enough to get through the manga though.
