Why do adult men still prefer shonen ever seinen? Despite shonen being made for young boys and seinen being made for adult men, adult men still watch the former more than the latter.

Shounen releases weekly. I need a break from the soul crushing grind, pls understand.

Fun things are fun

Seinen is not for adult men

>>279833788 (OP)
>seinen being made for adult men
Seinen is for young adults.

>>279833788 (OP)
Seinen is just shounen but with gore and nudity.

>>279833788 (OP)
Isekai >> shonen/seinen

>>279834363
False

Neither shonen or seinen mean anything beyond target audience

The content isn't a factor at all

>>279835311
SAO is shonen and Overlord is seinen.

>>279836454
This. Also another deciding factor is that shonen uses simpler japanese (I mean, it IS for kids after all) with furigana and seinen is often not. Oh and don't forget about nudity and gore. You can't show that to the kids...

>>279833788 (OP)
Because it's honest. An honest story free of pretension is just easier to like. So much Seinen is just basically shounen but with more violence and whatever else and maybe a freshman understand of some philosophy to sound smart.

Real nights watch/read exclusively seinen

Those 3 in your picture are practically battle shounen but with more edginess/gore allowed and its worrying to me that so many morons fail to notice this

For me it's Shin-Chan

Shonen and Seinen are demographics, which don't determine the quality of the manga. For example, Osu Karate Club is Seinen despite being similar to Shonen. Claymore is Shonen despite being similar to Seinen.

>>279833788 (OP)
Seinen manga is about failure, it is a literature of defeat

>>279833788 (OP)
Better question: why edgy adventures like Berserk and Vinland Saga are considered "for adults"? It's just typical shonen with more blood and nudity.

True. This is more of a magazine choice.
>The content isn't a factor at all
Untrue. You will never see a discussion of economics in a manga for teenagers, nor will you find a manga for adults about Beyblade championships in elementary school.

I've been reading kingdom for years thougheverbeit. It's like jumpshit but for mature adults such as myself.

He brings a good point. Imagine rising your kid just so he can die in gruesome way.

Because you like what you like, regardless of how old you get.
