The list of the best Shonen of all time is quite extensive. And fortunately, as the years go by, There have been many stories that have received the opportunity to be adapted to animated format, surprising us each season with fascinating new installments. However, on the other hand, there are others that are very good, but that are published exclusively in the manga.
This means that these works, at least for now, they have not been adapted to animated format. However, because they are so good, the hope prevails that we will be able to enjoy their anime soon.
We have prepared this post to tell you which They are some of the best Shonen that should be adapted to animesince they are very good.
Kagurabachi
We start with Kagurabachi, a fairly dark and interesting manga. This began publication in 2023, so it is relatively new and has had an up and down success. This story allows us to meet Chihiro Rokuhira, a young swordsman who wants to become a blacksmith like his father. However, after experiencing a tragedy, he makes the decision to set out on a journey to seek revenge.
Kagurabachi is not a manga that seeks to reinvent the wheel, well it's pretty standard. But this is not a negative thing, since it is a manga that has everything to be considered a dark Shonen, which are quite popular.
I sold my life for ten thousand yen a year
This is a Shonen manga that is somewhat different from the rest. And it is a fairly short series, but it focuses on the psychological theme, showing the value of human life. This is the story of Kusonoki, a young man who is desperate and struggling to get money. However, one day, she comes to a strange shop where people can sell lifespans in exchange for money.
So, Kusonoki sells 30 years of his life, earning about 10 thousand yen for each year. But this action has left him with only three months to live.. So now she finds herself experiencing the last of his life, reflecting and accepting what she cannot change. It is a great story to understand the value of life. But it would be a good work to enjoy in anime.
Akumetsu
It's time to talk about a simple Shonen from the 2000s era. However, This one never got the fame of others like it, so it did not receive the opportunity to be adapted into the anime. But the truth is that it is a very good work.
This story takes place in Japan, but it is a country where life is bleak and all the inhabitants are suffering for government corruption. Things get worse when a terrorist named Akumetsu appears with the intention of taking justice into his own hands, attacking and murdering the rich to teach them a lesson.
Sayonara Eri
Tatsuki Fujimoto, creator of Chainsaw Man, It also has other spectacular one-shots, as is the case of Sayonara Eri. Obviously, as part of her personal hallmark, it is a story with quite heavy and adult themes.
This depressing story shows us Yuuta, a young man who tells what his mother's life and death has been like, all while experiencing his last days of life, as he suffers from a terminal illness. Nevertheless, his film is harshly criticized for being insensitive, so he sets out to film the best possible movie to surprise everyone. But it is on this journey where he will encounter all those feelings that he has ignored, such as loss and pain.
Steel Ball Run from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure
You can not deny that JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is one of the most important franchises and popular of all time. But, on this occasion, we will talk about the new installment of this IP, titled 'Steel Ball Run'.
This series shows us something different from the usual, since it is a story starring Johnny Joestar, a former horse racer who has been given the opportunity to ride again. So the work accompanies this protagonist as he participates in a sinister race.
