What's wrong with Dragonball? It's a perfectly good manga. It is the best example of the cliche shounen.

Putting someone who doesn't think so in 3 categories is retarded though.

He's got good taste though ;D

slam dunk
the breaker
kuroshitsuji << this one looks more shoujoish to me though!
yu yu hakusho << for its time!

The Breaker is published in a Seinen magazine...

1 - Psyren (above all else)
2 - Gintama
3 - The Breaker
4 - Id
5 - Veritas
6 - Bakuman
7 - Shingeki no Kyojin
8 - Fairy Tail
9 - Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei
10 - D. Gray-man (even though the latest 20 chapters or so sucked really hard)

Shounen is probably my favourite genre so I couldn't help but write down a top 10.

1- Black Cat
2- Mahou Sensei Negima
3- Air Gear
4- The Breaker
5- Id
6- Fairy Tail
7- History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi
8- Rave
9- Mx0
10- Immortal Regis

Yotsubato!
One Piece
Beelzebub

Dragon Ball
Midori no Hibi
Rurouni Kenshin
Angel Densetsu
Veritas

My favorites in no particular order

Best... well, I gotta say Alive: the final evolution for best battle/shounen
Ichigo 100% for best school-life/shounen

________________

1- Fullmetal Alchemist
2- One piece

One piece and Gintama
One piece has everything that a shounen needs be it characters,plot,lore.
And gintama has the wickest humor in a tv show that airs in day
In my opinion they are the best there it is and will stay like that for some time

Best manga of all time AND currently ongoing to me would be Pandora Hearts. I'm practically married to this series...

I am vindicated!
I am selfish;

I am right,

Swear I knew it all along
And I am flawed!
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now
The things you swore
You saw yourself...

Gintama<3
Full Metal Alchemist<3

And...

GTO
Bleach
One piece
Soul Eater
Seirei no Moribito
Pumpkin Scissors
Durarara!!
Majin tantei nougami neuro
etc.

I didn't list Death Note, because I consider it a seinen.
(Besides, I could add The Breaker, because, conversely, I consider it a shounen.)

Do I need to make ranking?

Hmmm... I think the best is....AIR GEAR !!!
artwork, story, char development and fighting style all superb 10/10

This World May Not What Everyone Thought

One Piece
Dragon Ball
Shaman King

Hunter x Hunter
(Even though it has so many chapters and isn't updated very often its still a great manga.)

Best ones I've read that actually had decent endings... Kenshin and Fullmetal. It seems to be surprisingly easy to lose the plot. Kenshin was even more surprising as everything he wrote since has been a complete turd.
Oh wait, Devilman too, that was supposedly Shounen, gotta pity the kiddies of 70s Japan.

Only one ongoing I still trust to stay good till the end: One Piece.

Gintama rocks too, but the type of comedy works better as an anime.
