The Seiun Award (星雲賞, Seiunshou) is a Japanese speculative fiction award for the best science fiction works and achievements during the preceding year. Organized and overseen by the Science Fiction Fan Groups' Association of Nippon (SFFAN; 日本SFファングループ連合会議, Nihon SF Fan Group Rengou Kaigi), the awards were given each year at the annual Japan Science Fiction Convention. It is the oldest SF award in Japan, which was first given in 1970 at the 9th Japan Science Fiction Convention and has been awarded every year since that.

It has been awarded annually for serialized manga since 1955 and features candidates from a number of publishers.

Special awards are also occasionally given out for outstanding work, lifetime achievement, and so forth.

Number of sales and date that number was acquired from in notes for each. Some of them I have personally estimated a higher figure than the date says.

No. 147 would be the Himitsu Series of books. It's for children and I can't find it on MAL. It has 116 volumes and started in 1972, and has sold 23 million (June 10th, 2018).

All Manga created by Kazuhiro Fujita, one of my fave mangakas.

Chill out like it's Sunday with the best of the best.

EDIT: Replaced "Arms" with "Mikadono Sanshimai wa Angai, Choroi".

To play after reading

A list of manga where supernatural beings inhabit the bodies of human beings whether they be dead or alive through various means such as a pact made between the host and inhabitant, sealing the being inside a host, cursed weapons affecting their weilder, possession, taking over the body through transformation/consumption or more than one occupant in a single body.

Aviso: não tenho certeza se todos são battle shounen, coloquei mesmo assim na lista pois vejo algumas pessoas classificando eles como tal.

This is a translation of a widely-publicized poll from 2021. This is NOT my personal opinion, so how about you shut up MAL.

#10 is Jojo's Bizarre Adventure as a whole, not just Steel Ball Run

Shounen Sunday is one of 3 major Weekly Shounen Manga Magazines *Jump, Magazine and Sunday*. This magazine always delivers solid manga series.

Shonen Sunday, is one of the big three magazine along with Shonen Jump and Shonen Magazine. It had a library of classic title such as Inuyasha, Detective Conan and Cross Game, etc,... Though, it might hold not a candle nowadays compare it competition Shonen Jump and Shonen Magazine but it do have some heavy hitters like Komi, Frieren, Call of the night,...

Note: I will included weekly, monthly, online and Sunday S into one list.

Few series does license here but it doesn't came out as of yet, so i won't included here

I will picked some series for this list, a few i missed out or hasn't came out might included in the other future list. So will that said. Enjoy

I've gone into MAL's database to find as many of these as I can, with some general criteria for making the list:
- Should have at least 20 volumes or 100 episodes in total.
- Should be aimed towards fans of battle shounen. However, it does not necessarily need to have the Shounen tag. This is very subjective, so I may have left out some legitimate series with that.
- Not including series that are mostly slice of life or that sort of thing.
- Not including Delinquent or Martial Arts series for the most part, as they can practically make up their own genre. Some exceptions though.
- Not including super obscure manga with very little/unreliable info about them.
- Sequels are counted with the original, so Boruto is included with Naruto for example.

Series that did not make the cut:
https://myanimelist.net/stacks/57113

Shonen and Seinen series which have individuals battling against each other, most often with special powers or fantasy-style special abilities, and also have a large number of chapters. Not recommended unless you have time to kill.

Manga in my plan-to-read 300-399 chapters
