Last updated
Ever wondered whether One Piece falls under the shonen category? You’re not alone! This is a popular question among fans of anime and manga. Let’s clear up any confusion.
When it comes to categorizing One Piece, a lot of folks are curious: Is it shonen?
Yes, One Piece is Shonen
One Piece fits snugly into the shonen genre, which primarily targets young male audiences. Shonen manga and anime often feature action-packed stories, adventure, and themes of friendship and personal growth. One Piece checks all these boxes and more.
Serialized in Shueisha’s Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine since July 1997, One Piece has been a flagship title for the genre. Its mixture of humor, emotion, and epic tales of adventure make it the perfect example of what shonen is all about.
