Shonen Jumper

by Linalin on Jan 25, 2009 08:46:55

The non-religious equivalent of a Bible Thumper. One who must consult the "all mighty" Shonen Jump before deciding on whether or not they like a series. Approach with caution, those who do not also worship the Shonen Jump will be preached to until their minds implode.

Not all narutards are Shonen Jumpers, but all Shonen Jumpers are narutards.
Example:
"I was at Borders today and a Shonen Jumper was salivating all over the 'b' manga section. Thank goodness Battle Royale is shrink-wrapped."


shonen-ai

by Random Idiot Ri on Dec 31, 2005 04:58:58

Shonen-ai is a Japanese terminology literally translated into "shonen" = boy and "ai" which means love. It denotes male homosexuality, and, unlike its correspondent yaoi, shonen-ai is used in regards to depictions of the romantic side of a relationship between two males. "Shonen-ai," the term, is used in fanfiction to warn of male homosexuality.

Often, shonen-ai is associated with fluffy, cute, and cuddly relationships - but the term is not completely restricted to such descriptions. Occasionally, an author will turn out a darker portrayal of a relationship between two guys and use the term "shonen-ai" as a forewarning that romantic relations between the two should be expected, but there will be very little (if at all) explicit sexual interactions. Unless specifically stated otherwise.

Shonen-ai also corresponds with the term "slash" which has less of an emphasis on whether or not the relationship between the characters involved is romantic or entirely sexual. Shonen-ai's counterpart is shoujo-ai - "girl"+"love". And the corresponding term for shoujo-ai that's used in regards to explicit sexual interactions between two females is yuri. Shoujo-ai and yuri can also be called femmeslash - or, sometimes, just slash.
Example:
"Bakura-kun gave Ryou-kun a Christmas kiss and chocolates and roses and presents and presents and even more presents - how typical shonen-ai-ish can they get!"

"Adrian and Lawrence are so cute as a shonen-ai couple and even if Adrian did killed Lawrence...he died in the end for Lawrence..."


Shonen brain

by Melancholic_Twig on Feb 01, 2021 15:58:24

A disease that develops from watching too much Shonen anime. Typical symptoms include: not understanding why people like things other than Shonen, hating on things that aren't Shonen, constantly arguing about which Shonen is the best, and talking about why Goku is the strongest anime character ever.
Example:
"Give up on the man, he's got the Shonen brain. He won't watch anything else."


shonen ai

by Shinigami Dani on Jul 19, 2003 05:09:20

meaning literally "boy love" in japanese. it is a lot like yaoi, but not as hard core.
mostly depicting boys kissing or light making out.
shonen ai, as a medium usualy revolves around relationships and emotional situations, rather then the guy on guy sex.
Example:
"gravitation is such a cute shonen ai show! i cant wait for its release here!"

by J.P. Richardson on Feb 29, 2004 02:56:27

The kick-ass all-girl j-rock band hailing from Osaka Japan. They formed in 1982.
Example:
They like to describe themselves as "super-eccentric-pop-punk-cult-band-shonen-knife!".


shonen ai

Literally means "boy love." Slash with an emphasis on "awwww . . . cute!" Not to be confused with yaoi, which is graphic male/male porn. Shonen ai is generally fluffy and not particularly explicit.
Example:
I read the most adorable shonen ai Harry Potter fanfiction the other day . . . It was Lupin/Sirius, set in their school days. They were playing wizard chess and wound up kissing. Lupin is so cute when he blushes!
