"As of 2018, Shonen Jump, and consequently shonen manga in general, seems to have gone through a transition as a result of Hiroyuki Nakano replacing Yoshihisa Heishi as editor-in-chief. While One Piece is still firmly on its throne as reigning king of shonen manga, the magazine is increasingly pushing series like The Promised Neverland and Dr. Stone that depart from the standard shonen battle manga formula."

This example should be removed, as at no point does it mention what genre is it even changing from how it was, but the two examples (Neverland and Dr. Stone) aren't even of the same genre.

Someone needs to fix the Film - Live Action link. Unfortunately, I'm in the middle of moving at the moment, so don't have time do do lengthy edits here.

Mr. Plinkett, Angry Video Game Nerd, or Nostalgia Critic?

Each have had their stamp as the “angry Youtube critic” but which should be added? Nerd technically came first, Plinkett started the whole video essay style of reviewing, and Critic popularized the whole crossover idea with other critics.

Does anyone think that My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic qualifies for shows that fight back against the Girl-Show Ghetto, or did it come earlier?

Removed the Blade entry. There were far more than "occasional big budget comic book movies" before Blade - between the first Christopher Reeve Superman there were three other Superman films, four Batman film, a Supergirl film and the likes of The Rocketeer and The Mask.

I think we need a laconic page here, though I don't know how to add tabs, so put something like this in it when someone gets the chance:

A work redefines the genre it occupies

How's that?

Looks good; I made the page. To create a new tab, just post a link somewhere that's TabName/MainPageTitle, click it, and create the page. The button on top of the main page will show up automatically.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

I doubt B5 and DS 9 "started a slow but steady shift in the television sci-fi genre that later yielded" The X-Files, given that all three shows premiered in the same year. With its paranoia premise, The X-Files was part of that shift, not a product of it.

There are a few examples on this page that, from the phrasing, seem to be Genre Launch, not Genre Turning Point: R.Crumb, Halloween, and Neuromancer. Halloween could possibly be argued to be semantic (not really launching the slasher genre, but turning horror in a slasher direction), but I think the others are pretty much straight examples. I was going to move them to the Genre Launch page, but I don't see any examples on that page. Is there a particular reason, or are folks OK with me moving them?

Is Identity Crisis really thought to have restarted the Dark Age? I know it's a YMMV work but I haven't heard that criticism anywhere else, and I can't say I see many examples of it being true. I would have just out and out deleted the mention, but wanted to make sure first.

Anime: EVA reviving the industry? I think that's a little excessive.
