After 40 Years, It's The End Of An Era For Shonen Anime

When it comes to anime and manga, shonen series have always dominated at the very top, and that has been the case for the last 40 or so years. With the official release of Dragon Ball on November 20, 1984, shonen series have never truly stopped their domination. With the end of Dragon Ball came the wave of the Big Three only a couple of years later, which dominated up until the mid-2010s.
