Anyway I'm a big fan of One Piece and Yu Yu Hakusho. ^^

Rave Master
One Piece
Naruto
Flame of Recca
Ragnarok
Samurai Deeper Kyo
Full Metal Alchemist
and it seems like I've read more, but I can't think of them at the moment.

Tuxedo Gin is shonen, it's published in Shogakukan. And the plot itself basically is shonen to the core with a male main char and heaps of fanservice. It's hard to tell, like Love Hina or Chobits (which are actually seinen titles--shonen manga for an even higher age group, mostly due to nudity, etc). Trust me, I know shonen when I see it XD XD

I would natually think that too. I mean, I read the first volume too.. err yeah.. O.O;; But, it said on the side Shoujo? Werid ey?

They probably confused it as shoujo as most people or publishers here do with seinen titles (Love Hina, Chobits or even Ah! Megami-sama! for instance, how many people thought THOSE were shoujo?). It's definitely shonen/seinen ^^
Aka-chan, yeah! Kindaichi's great, a more 'realistic' take on Detective Conan in ways ^^ They published over 10 volumes back in Indo and are still going strong, I've read a ton, but it was all back in my high school days ^^;; There was big talk on Kindaichi vs Shinichi and who would win among the mystery manga fandom in Indo... I don't think it was settled. But we all generally agreed Shinchi would win in style, LOL!! Kindaichi's too lazy to care ;P

LOL! Kindaichi, you lazy bum! *glomp* You gonna take that from Conan?!

Yeah, most of Takahashi's more popular works seem to be Bishonens (IE Ranma 1/2, Inu-Yasha.

I am so uch more a shonen person than shojo. It's sad though, I don't even know a third of the anime you guys are talking about. My favorite would be DBZ. Others are:
Yu Yu Hakusho
Yu-Gi-Oh (it's shonen right?)
Naruto
Ruroni Kenshin
Eh, there's more, but I'm just too lazy to try to remember them.
