For shonen, I would recommend Fullmetal Alchemist (original 2003 series+movie before the 2009/brotherhood series. Yes people will say that the 2009 series is better but that's only because it was done after the series was completed—2003 and the manga were in production at the same time, so the mangaka advised the producers. Also there's a lot more early establishing character development moments and story beats that 09/brotherhood rushes over to spend more time on later stuff. If you watched the original shaman king vs the remake, think of the fire scene from early in the series).
Oh and for supernatural stuff, YuYu Hakusho is more monster of the week serial before the major story hits hard. YYH leans more into the shonen side
Death Note is more supernatural horror and intrigue. The music is also a banger.
These are also older series but I would also recommend Loki: Ragnarok (especially if you liked Noragami) and DNAngel.
This is a bit out of the genres, but s-CRY-ed is a favorite and I'll always sing its praises
Shoujou and slice of life: Pretear, Princess Tutu, Himawari Sketch, and Silver Spoon. The first two are shoujou fantasy, Himawari Sketch is just straight slice of life. Silver Spoon is too, but it's more seinen, but it's by the same mangaka as Fullmetal Alchemist.
Summaries below
Fullmetal Alchemist: two brothers, Edward and Alphonse Elric, have committed an ultimate alchemical taboo and now seek a way to restore their bodies. Along the way, they encounter a variety of alchemy users—and victims—that complicate their views on alchemy and endanger themselves and their loved ones.
YuYu Hakusho: a troublesome 14-year-old boy dies saving a younger kid , and as far as he's concerned, it may have been the only good thing he's done while he was alive. A shinigami tries to take him to the afterworld, but he manages to strike a bargain: he can come back to life if his soul is worthy. Supernatural events ensue afterwards. (It's been ages since I watched this so apologies.)
Death Note: a student finds a notebook that allows the holder to kill anyone in almost any way they can imagine. Naturally, people don't like this and an internationally famous and anonymous detective is brought in to stop him. (The music is a banger.)
Loki: Ragnarok: A high school girl is a supernatural phenomenon geek and investigates them in her local town. Somehow, she doesn't realize that her new friends and employer are the Norse deities Loki and Jormungandr, cast out and trapped on Earth.
DNAngel: Daisuke's family is cursed: every generation, the phantom thief Dark possesses a boy after a certain birthday. Unfortunately it's Daisuke's turn and Dark doesn't make it easy for him, immediately starting to steal valuable pieces of art from another family...
s-CRY-ed: Certain people have alters: psychically linked, powerful personas that do their bidding or enhance their abilities. Some are outlaws; some are officers tasked with bringing in the outlaws. The outlaws live in a wasteland, trying to survive; the officers live as agents in the city, enjoying the luxuries. An outlaw and an officer meet, and somehow their destinies are linked.
Pretear: Seven knights appear in front of a high school girl, claiming that she's the chosen one in this world that will prevent a great evil from destroying both her world and theirs. By transforming and binding with a knight, she's able to use elemental powers to defeat monsters that keep appearing, threatening her town and loved ones. She discovers that there's more to the knights, including a dark history... (The funny thing is that this manga has a subtitle that's like. "A fantasy retelling of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves" and like. Sure?? I can see where you're coming from but??)
Princess Tutu: Duck is a very clumsy girl normally, but extremely graceful when she's dancing—usually, which often gets her into trouble at her ballet school, meaning she often embarrasses herself in front of her crush, the aloof Mytho. When strange creatures start attacking Mytho, Duck becomes Princess Tutu to banish them, completely unknown to him. However, she has a role to play...
Himawari Sketch: Art high school students live in Himawari Apartments and bond in and out of class. (This one I haven't finished yet 😭)
Silver Spoon: A city-slicker college kid doesn't know what he wants to do with his life, so he applies to an agricultural college on a whim. While there, he learns that there's more to agriculture, farmers, and rural life than he thought, and he gains an appreciation for things—and people—he took for granted. (Hiromu Arakawa, the mangaka for this and FMA, grew up on a farm in Hokkaido, so she takes it as a point of pride. That is also why there's a lot of milk in FMA.)
Hey weebs that follow me, I've been out of anime and manga circles for some time and outside of a few titles I'm starting to run low on things to try. If I give examples of what I've liked in the past, can you give suggestions on other things that are out there?
What I've liked over the years seems to be:
Samurai genre (Kenshin, Kurogane, Sword of the Stranger)
Supernatural/Horror-lite (Descendants of Darkness, Noragami, Beyond the Boundary, Inuyasha, Yu Yu Hakusho, xxxHolic, Jujutsu Kaisen, Shaman King, Shounen Omnyouji) (preferred genre I love this shit)
Fun Shounen Things (My Hero Academy, Pokémon, Haruko no Go)
Cute Shoujo slice of life things (His and Her Circumstances, Free!, Super Gals!, Land of the Blindfolded)

Talk more abt your interests or we're selling you to 1 direction(jk I just like listening to you ramble about things cause you have a lot of cool and indepth opinions)
OH GOD OH FUCK PLEASE DONT SELL ME MOM AAAAAAAAAAAAAA
honestly its SO sweet to ask this and im rly glad u guys dont mind when i ramble about shit no one knows or cares about LMAO... i honestly struggle to reel it in sometimes bc i can just go tf off kdfgd
one hyperfixation i rarely have the opportunity to talk about on here is my lifelong OBSESSION with fairy tales and folklore.. ever since i was a kid ive been in love with all kinds of fairy tales!! im very partial to the brothers grimm because they just collected so many of these stories, but i have a very special love for lesser known ones, and ESPECIALLY the original versions of popular ones bc they tend to be so much more different than people know
for example did u know that in snow white, the apple was the evil queens THIRD attempt to kill snow white? the first two attempts were a corset tied too tightly and a poisoned comb, both of which were thwarted by the dwarves coming home from work like 5 minutes later dgkfjgndf
and did u ALSO know that that story ends with the evil queen being invited to the wedding of snow white and the prince, only for them to force her to dance in red-hot iron shoes until she died?? they really didnt play in those stories LMAO
what i find really fascinating about these kinds of folklore (and this applies to general mythology too) is that a lot of times you can easily tell which stories were originally the same story that got either repurposed or retold with different details, as almost every fairy tale was originally shared orally, and therefore details were changed and/or were forgotten between tellings.
for example, there was a fairy tale i read years ago about a character named buh nansi who was caught stealing from a king and was captured. as the king decided what to do with him, buh nansi begged not to be thrown into the ocean as he could not swim and would surely die. the king decided to throw him into the sea, and buh nansi swam away freely as he told the king that the ocean was his home and hed just set him free.
there was ANOTHER one i read abt a selfish rabbit who refused to help the other animals dig a well, and so was banned from using it. however the rabbit ended up drinking from it anyway, and as punishment, the animals created a wolf out of tar to keep it away. the rabbit first reacts accordingly, but when it tries to talk to the wolf and the wolf doesnt answer, it gets angry at the disrespect and swings at the wolf, causing it to get stuck in the tar. the animals find the rabbit the next day and try to decide what to do with it, so the rabbit begs them not to throw it into the thicket, which they of course do. the thicket catches the tar and sets the rabbit free, and it brags that the thicket is its home before it runs off. sound familiar?
if not, let me spoil it for you - both of these stories are more modernly associated with the uncle remus br’er rabbit fairy tales (these were some of my favorites as a kid). the br’er rabbit story is that br’er fox, who is br’er rabbits enemy, wants to capture him, so he sets up a tar doll (or tar baby; incidentally, this is a VERY racist term now LMAO) in the road to trap him. br’er rabbit comes upon the doll and bids it good morning, but the doll (obviously) doesnt answer. br’er rabbit gets angry at the disrespect and eventually tries to smack the doll, which of course gets him stuck fast to the tar. br’er fox comes along and grabs br’er rabbit as he decides what to do with him. br’er rabbit begs the fox to do whatever he wants, as long as he does not throw him into the briar-patch (its just thorny brambles basically), which he is deathly afraid of. this of course prompts the fox to throw the rabbit into the brambles, which sets the rabbit free and he escapes while bragging that the briar-patch is his home
all three of these stories are essentially the same tale retold very differently - and, fun fact, “buh nansi” is actually anansi, a trickster god seen in a LOT of west african and caribbean folklore. also, both “br’er” and “buh” mean “brother” (which becomes obvious if u say them out loud LMAO), and are used as terms of respect. br’er rabbit is a little more new than buh nansi and the rabbit story - the uncle remus collection was published originally in the late 1800s, while the other stories have likely persisted for centuries. transparently, br’er rabbit is an amalgamation of these two stories (and probably many others), and was repurposed to fit the environment that the storytellers were in; in this case, they would have been slaves living on southern plantations, thus why the story had to be retold to cut out anansi (a non-christian god). almost every br’er rabbit story i can think of is actually a retelling of a traditional west african fairy tale, updated to suit their circumstances.
its honestly pretty fucking fascinating, and there are quite a few stories that share a lot of commonalities like this if you look! not just the southern folklore either, but pretty much any folklore you can think of dates back much, much farther than you might know. as a quick thing, if youve ever heard of the “firmament” in the bible, that is referring to a layer of water surrounding the earth which was believed to cause rain and, if too much water fell onto the earth, floods. but, if you can believe it, this did NOT originate with the bible - the idea of the firmament is actually a holdover from babylonian mythology, which makes perfect sense as the writers of the bible would have been IN babylon at the time of the firmaments inclusion, and therefore would have been influenced by its own folklore!
ok i can talk about this forever so im gonna stop myself here but like. yeah fairytales and shit are fucking cool LMAO
