Does anyone else think Viz is going to get rid of Shoujo BEat

Shoujo generally seems to be going through a boom with more licenses and anime adaptions but it seems like the shoujo beat catalog is growing thin as its mostly nowadays long running staples and only a handful of new series While yen press kodansha and other publishers grab anticipated titles such as Studio Cabana and Champignon witch.

A Common Pet Peeve With Shonen Female Characters.

As a longtime watcher of shonen action series I have noticed something about its female cast and that is they are often very low tier with strength or there are the ones who don't get to fight at all.

EXAMPLES Demon Slayer Two female Hashira and one of them (Shinobu) is the weakest in the group and has to use poison because she is too weak to fight demons.

One-Piece Nami is the second weakest of the main crew and rarely gets a chance to fight while Robin is said to strong but mostly only gets to deal with fodder enemies and neither of them have Haki It is also extremely rare in One Piece for there by top tier female combatants with the only examples being Hancock Yamato And Big Mom.

Naruto There is only one girl in The Legendary Saradin and she is a healer while Sakura is heavily eclipsed by Naruto And Sasuke in power and decides to become a healer as well and other ladies like Tenten were said to be powerful but did not get a chance to show it.

Fma While it handled its female cast well it is frustrating that Winry was the only supporting character who couldn't contribute to fights, and I speculate that was the reason she didn't participate in the endgame parts with the homunculus and father.

Mha Most of the female students in class 1a had supportive abilities such as Invisibility of floating or ones that sound good but never got to look powerful like frog and creation while men got powers such as fire/ice explosions and dark shadows. Also a majority of female pro heroes seen were rescue heroes with the exception of Midnight.

Dragon ball While Dragon ball has important female character it was annoying to see one of them (Bulma) be given the no fighting character role in the story.

This trope frustrates me because in an battle shonen fighting is an important component and to see female characters either be low tier the person whose role isn't to fight or be given flashy powers but never allowed to use the in the same way their male castmates do feels like their not allowing them the same spotlight.

If you were Makarov would you expel the rest of the Thunder Legion [anime]

I personally say yes because they were right along with Laxus endangering the guild and the town.
