It's sad how the word shonen is used by people nowadays like it's a bad thing. Also, it's hard to avoid wanting fanservice when one of the main characters from Black Lagoon barely wears clothing.
If there are anime that made me cry, it's the first episode of To Your Eternity and the first episodes of Stein Gate 0 and at least the former is shonen.
What about shojo? The themes of Tokyo Babylon are pretty serious but I admit the first I read I was quite homophobic when thinking about the premise.
Trigun also started as a shonen manga but due to a change of publisher it was moved to a seinen manga demography.
