that is my question, this series is a shoujo or a shounen? well, in my opinion
personal i hope in GOD that RM be a shoujo
jejeje, let see, the style of animation, characters desings, colors, characters
perfil, and of course, the story, i think that is obvious that is a shoujo, dont
you?
and, the other evidence that Rozen Maiden is a shoujo story are this: the
protagonist like play, drink tea, watch the TV and eat cakes...in a shounen
anime never happend that, right?
if someone here know much about of RM, please, answer me my dude
and repeat, i hope in GOD that RM be a shoujo because the shoujo is my favorite
gener, jejeje
I dunno. I watched both series and enjoyed it and I'm a guy. Although I'm
probably to old to qualify as a shounen and I don't think young boys who wants
to think they're macho's gonna watch it.
But just because they drink tea and play doesn't make it by default shoujo. You
ever heard of kawaii or moe? Adult Japanese males dig that, and I must admit, I
do too.
So no need to hope so desparately. Its not as if waching the show's gonna make
you gay or anything.

no, i say that i wish that be RM be a shoujo because the shoujo is my favorite
gener ever
and i dont like the idea that Rozen Maiden be anime a shounen, because for your
information, im not very fan of the shounen, is more, this gener sick me
examples: Naruto, Bleach, Hu-hu Hakusho and of course Dragon Ball.
sinceritly i be dissapoint if this series is a shounen, i dont like that idea
I think it is a SHoujo
the characters desings and the story make it a shojo I think
But boys like that sort of anime too!
(But I like Naruto and Bleach that are shonen.....:P )

But does it matter whether its shounen (meant for boys) or shojo (meant for
girls)? If you watched it and enjoyed it, so what? How can you be dead-set
against the genre shounen? What does the (artificial) genre categorization have
to do with the quality or content of the anime? Personaly I think that you can
only generilize as far as "more girls would like this than boys" or
vice versa. You can't prescribe something like this.
Sure you don't like Naruto or Bleach or whatever, but do you also dislike
something like, for example, Cowboy Bebop, Samurai 7, Samurai Champloo, even
FMA, JUST because it's closer to shounen (or seinen) than shoujo?
Whatever its category shouldn't have any effect on whether you liked it or not.
I mean, thats just shallow!
After watching both Rozen Maiden and Rozen Maiden: Traumend, I can honestly say,
in my opinion, that it's a shoujo anime. There's not a whole lot of action, and
the plot focuses on the doll's feelings for each other and their masters.

mmm well, the UNIQUE animes shounen (or seinen) that i like are Cowboy Bebop,
Samurai Champloo, Tenjou Tenge, Chrno Crusade, Stratos 4, Inu-Yasha, mmm,
Hellsing can be considerate a shounen anime? i think that is a gore
anime
besides, Chobits and Angelic Layer are considerate shounen animes....and that
for me is very extrange
in little words, as can you see the shounen series that i dont like are from the
magazine Shounen Jump that in them pages got series such dragon ball, hu hu
hakusho, naruto, bleach, one piece, shaman king and yugioh
the unique shounen that i dont like are from that magazine
It is certainly not Shounen. I'd say it stands somewhere between Shojo and
Seinen, both in style and plot. Shounen is mostly recognized by mostly mildly
violent male action scenes without much blood or gore. DBZ, FMA and Bleach are
notable in that genre. Seinen has some unclear traits as a genre, since it can
be just about anything. The violent side of seinen can be symbolized by Tenjho
Tenge, Berserk or Gantz, which obviously are unrelated to RM in... well,
anything.

Well, i think it's seinen..

I'd classify it as masculine Shojo.
