though i really like NARUTO -ナルト- shippuden, fairy tail and full metal alchemist, One Piece is the awesomest and will always be the best in my opinion.
Death Note, without doubt. While there are other shounens I like just as much, I personally don't think there are any that could match in terms of storyline and plot. Then again, I haven't finished watching all the アニメ (though I have finished the manga), so maybe it's not so good, but that's what I think anyway.

I agree! It's far from a main stream and hundreds of chapters long. No main stream battle series can ever match it!
It was published in Shonen Jump magazine (the same magazine that publishes Bleach and Naruto), and contains no graphic violence, sex, nudity and with minimal bad language, so I think it is a shounen, although the themes and complexity of the storyline could possibly be interpreted as being for an older age group.
I'd say Dragonball Z. It's the best expression of what a shonen can be I think. But that doesn't mean it's my favorite. My お気に入り 80/90s shonen is Ranma 1/2, and お気に入り 2010's is Fairy Tail (I prefer not to compare animes from different decades).
