Not saying it's a bad thing, but sometimes you don't want to sit through 10 episodes of just training.

Most of One Piece aired in the 2000s and 2010s.

Shounen doesn't involve romance. I've seen quite a few Anime fans who use this argument to dismiss discussions of who the main protagonist in a Shounen work will end up with. The problem is, instead of being an accurate statement, the statement instead is a red flag to those of us who've seen quite a bit of Anime. We know that person isn't as familiar with the Shounen demographic (not genre) as they think they are, but the intent of this list is to help others better familiarize themselves with the genre.

Not all Shounen series have a male as their main protagonist, whether it be that they are the singular main protagonist or there be other mains including males in the series.

Anime which are infamous for their filler, whether it be dragging out certain events, making up something completely inconsequential or even just lazy clip show episodes that recap the story.
Anime adaptations like the original FMA or Hellsing which completely diverged from the source material after catching up will not be on here, nor will Anime originals like Pokemon, nor will recap specials.

Every anime I could find that still used cel animation during the early 2000s

Are you God's most favorite, special girl? Do you still believe in magic? Would you leave this mortal plane for something else without a second thought? Then you may be delusional enough to see yourself in these female protagonists-like me.

A collection of anime released from January 1963 to January 2000 that still have something of an appeal. For better or worse.

These are sorted from newest to oldest.

Note: Moderators had taken down the stacks before, since it was not wholly information based. I will post this as a note as to why such series are essential in order to defend them all as a blanket statement.

Most of the series featured have some sort of significance in terms of first best or darkest for their era which can be categorized by decennium or part of a decennium (early, middle, late). These are mixed around in order in order to give those who subscribed to list a challenge. While I could give an individual breakdown, I think some research is better left up to those who have subscribed to the stacks, since this allows for additional cultural insight into what was popular in Japan at the time, which is sometimes disconnected from the United States, as well as the rest of North America and Europe in many ways. For example, the Crayon Shin-Chan that aired in the United States and Canada is different to the one that aired in Europe, is different to the one that aired in Japan. By recommending to seek out Japanese versions of series, it grows understanding. I am not the first one to have thought of this. In the United States, there used to be a channel called ImaginAsian TV which had the same purpose of informing people about Japanese popular culture through anime. The San Francisco and San Diego PBS stations did the same thing and NHK World Japan carries this on through series like Little Charo and previously Maiko-san Chi no Makanai-san.

I think it is agreed upon that retro is a niche, but with handicaps on subject matter like availability.

Isekai authors take note.
