So because I dont have nearly enough series on the go to suck up any and all resources I stumbled upon 'Banana fish' which seemed cool from the cover but the particular place I looked it up in had no description. The best I saw was that it was Shojo. Ok then so wiki it is! wiki posted:1973, Vietnam - an American soldier goes mad and guns down his buddies. Since then, the only words he has uttered are "Banana Fish"... I..that...how is that shojo? If so is Marlon brando the Tsundere in Apocalypse now?

I cant really dissociate shojo from that particular image in the same way I wouldn't really say Judge dread is kids comics. Though at the same time I may have shot my argument in the foot as I don't suppose I would call Judge Dread 'mature' for the most part either. I like Shojo stuff well enough but isnt there a general upper end of where you can refer to something as one genre? Published in a Shojo magazine or not is this really somthing that fits into that slot? I'm not trying to be argumentative and I fully intend to read it but given that kind of set up it sounds more like it belongs to the Seinen lot. I'm genuinely interested in stuff you say is shojo but scoots far away from the bubbles and fluffy screen tones though, what would you have to offer in this way of things?
