Influential shonen manga before dragon ball.

Series that are heavily overlooked on MAL (at the time of writing, under 2k members). Most, if not all of them are also underrated. Will likely add series in the future as I read them.

Weekly Shōnen Magazine (Japanese: 週刊少年マガジン, Hepburn: Shūkan Shōnen Magajin) is a weekly shōnen manga magazine published on Wednesdays in Japan by Kodansha, first published on March 17, 1959. The magazine is mainly read by an older audience, with a significant portion of its readership falling under the male high school or college student demographic. According to circulation figures accumulated by the Japanese Magazine Publishers Association, the magazine's circulation has dropped in every quarter since records were first collected in April–June 2008. This is, however, not an isolated occurrence as digital media continues to be on the rise. (Source: Wikipedia)

I base my list simply on the manga listed on MyAnimeList (https://myanimelist.net/manga/magazine/8/Shounen_Magazine_Weekly).

Those I haven't had yet and which have a good chance of moving up in the rankings: 1 2 no Sanshirou, A-bout, Ai to Makoto, DAYS, Football Taka, GetBackers, Over Drive, Sumire♡17-sai, Super Doctor K and Tokkyuu

Works related to Devilman, Mazinger Z, and Cutie Honey have been given their own dedicated lists.
