Why aren't new modern manga fans who mainly reads current shounenslop interested in pre-2010s series?
Back when I was getting into manga in the mid 2010s, it was usual for beginners to read classics like Dragon Ball, Fist Of The North Star, Slam Dunk, One Piece, Rurouni Kenshin, Shaman King, etc. alongside currently running, smaller and more modern series, but the current younger manga fans will not touch them with a ten foot pole despite reading JJK/CSM/Dandadan/Kagurabachi/Gachiakuta/Sakamoto Days/Whatever at the same time. What happened?
