Yes, in a way they are. Good point. While everyone can enjoy battle shounen anime, it seems that, if we go by stereotypes, this genre can be called "soap opera for dudes".

This isn't a bad analogy if you introducing someone to the genre, but it isn't the same thing either

Battle shonen are more akin to superhero movies than soap operas.

No, that would be the WWF/WWE.

Battle Shounen is more akin to superhero movies/tv.
