Shonen

Redirected from Shounen

A style of anime intended for boys but may have a crossover appeal to girls as well. Some good examples are Gundam Wing, Dragon Ball Z, and Fist of the North Star[?].

In Japanese script, the word "shonen" is written 少年 which literally means young boys. Its furigana are しょうねん.
