I've completed all the seasons of this show recently and absolutely loved all of them. I'm a guy btw so i was just curious to know how many of you are males considering it's a shoujo anime aimed mostly at females

I'm female but really I don't think anyone should pay attention to demographics. I love plenty of seinen and shouen.

well that's a surprise i just saw a sexist comment(on youtube ofcourse) by a female shoujo fan about how male audiences have bad taste in anime because of liking some shounen garbages(mostly isekai) and that shoujo is better than shounen,so i was just curious to know how many of you guys are males
I'm not a shounen fan btw

I'm a guy, and have enjoyed both shoujo and josei manga. My main reason why I avoid shoujo manga is the.. cluttered artstyle with all the distracting stuff in the background and stuff.

That being said, it is just very few works that are categorised as shoujo and josei.

I’m a guy. You should create a poll so the data is more clear.

I just watch what looks good really I don’t notice if it’s “meant for guys” or not I can’t really understand why this is supposedly for girls as opposed to just anyone.

Im a guy and i absolutely dislike shoujo as a demographic, makes me wanna vomit. But yeah, everyone has different taste.

oh that’s so weird. I’ve always watched plenty of shounen and I don’t watch much shoujo because I don’t like romance. I might just be an outlier though (I’m female btw)

im a dude i for one loves stupid isekais, trashy visual novels, fucked up mangas/books, and i also love sweet rom coms, sad love stories, or any shoujos with something good to enjoy. dont pay attention to anyone who tries to box people into categories just to trash them. they are click bait and dont deserve ad monies from you.

I'm female, I love Natsume Yuujinchou and I don't really care about demographics. I like many shounen, shoujo, josei and seinen lol. But honestly I really think that sucks that studios don't make shoujo/josei anime. It's unfair that every new series is considered male point of view. Wish for more fpov...

I am a male but natsume yuujinchou is my all time favorite anime and i dont think it will change. I couldn't find the same mix of heartwarming and sad feels in any other anime. Storytelling of this anime is top tier <3

I don’t understand why people call someone’s taste trash just because they don’t necessarily like the same genres as you (toxic people). I’m a female and I like shounen, seinen and isekai. I tend to prefer those over slice of life and romance (it really depends sometimes, though). I’m not going to always like an anime someone else likes/is popular. It’s impossible. Sounds like that girl needs to touch some grass.
