How come this shit is a seinen manga?
>>142370578
Not enough action for little kids.
Shounen = targeted to teenage boys
Seinen = targeted to college age men
Shojou = targeted to teenage girls
Josei = targeted to women
>>142370578
>calling it shit
Poser detected.
>>142370578
Seinen is just another word for manchildren
Nobody else would watch these kind of shows
>>142370751
This poster is a fan of Madoka, KLK and Monogatari.
Report and ignore.
Just because it doesn't have blood, gore and sex in it doesn't mean it's not seinen.
>>142370578
Because some grown men wanna look at little girls.
My wife Chino is so cute.

Most of SoL/iyashikei is seinen. It requires sufficient wisdom to find enjoyment in mundane. Most kids just want instant gratification that shounen offers them.
>>142370578
Because it's for pedos
>>142371147
That's not what most seinen shows are, though
Stop being retarded
>>142370578
it's for older males late 20s + that makes it seinen in a sense.
>>142371147
t. shounenkiddie whose favorite shows are bebop and jojo
>>142371629
>watching little girls do nothing
Pretty sure a brain dead person could watch those
>>142371928
Sure, but they wouldn't find enjoyment in them.
I love my wife Chino.
>>142372168
My wife Chino is so cute.
>>142370578
Because Manga Time Kirara Max is a seinen magazine.
It's for thinking men. the modern Shakespeare, cawfee or gween tea? to be or not to be?
>>142372161
I doubt anyone sane would find enjoyment in them
>>142372426
We may joke around like this but some people believe their favorite shonen anime is as deep as the classics.
>>142372534
No sane person over the age of thirteen would watch anime
>>142370578
Technically it's not seinen manga. Seinen manga is defined as being published in a seinen magazine. However Kirara MAX is not a seinen magazine, it's official demographic is unisex (17-27 years male/female).

>>142370578
Because these "men" are willing to pay big money to buy stuff that caters to them
>>142373131
I always imagined actual dykes watch those yuri shows
She even has a kuroko pillow
>>142373131
literally me desu senpai
>>142373592
wow, we have so much in common. cool, rad.
>>142373131
I want to be inside herbabyroom.
>>142370578
As far as I can tell the biggest difference between Shounen and Seinen is that the latter uses a lot more complicated Kanji that adults are more familliar with than teenagers.
Lots of these so called "mature" anime are cute girl slice of life shows.
>>142373592
>>142373767
>Ima grill btw
>>142374455
Hey, only if I put on a skirt.
>the cartoons i watch are more mature than the cartoons you watch!
Pathetic.
Today on /a/: faggot anon shocked when the term he used for mature shows (made specifically for mature people like him) also includes shows about cute girls doing cute things
>>142370578
Anything can be shoujo/shonen/seinen/josei as long as it manages to get published in a magazine that targets a certain audience.
Sabagebu is classified as shoujo even though it's far from what you'd expect from one.
>>142374923
And not a single pantyshot.
>>142370578
It serializes in a magazine aimed at 18-40 year-old men.
Kids don't appreciate SoL because they're still living a life of luxury with minimum responsibility. Older teens and young adults feel nostalgia and can relate to situations most SoL cover, or just take joy in seeing happy young girls living a fun life while they toil through college and stresful careers.
>>142370578
My cute and lovely wife Chino.
Seinen manga are manga marketed to adolescent boys and men old enough to read kanji.
>>142375510
You're wrong, that's a boat cosplaying as my wife.
>>142374923
This literally has no bugdet.
Do you newfags really not understand the simple difference? I mean beyond the target demographic it's ridiculously easy to see if you've watched enough anime.
Shounen stories are driven more by plot and seinen stories rely more on character interactions and often development to entertain the viewer.
>>142375658
Are you the cockmongler using bots/proxies to spam downvote certain pics you don't like on the booru?
And if so, what do you think you gain out of it?
>>142376142
Are you sure you're replying to my post?
Chino is too sexy for children.
>>142376177
I intended to link all of your samefag posts.
I suspect the person I'm thinking of lurks /u/ at least if not also /a/. I assume it's not you because someone that passionate would have an unambiguous response.

Dear janitor-kun: this is not the kind of post you should be deleting. Whether you like his opinion or not, it wasn't a shitpost like the other one you deleted. Please ask in IRC first if you're not sure. I've seen a lot of very poor moderation coming from you new recruits.
sage
K-on was seinen too, you retard.
>>142376442
If you pay attention all the pictures with Cocoa and Chino get upvoted and the ones where Chino is implied with or with a guy get downvoted. Use your head.
>>142371880
Using anime and manga objectively superior to Gochiusa is not going to get your point across properly. You should've said HxH and One piece.
>>142377161
To be fair Gochiusa is not even in the top 10 of its genre.
>>142370578
Because it's for a more mature audience.
>>142370578
Seinen is for adults
You ever see any kids watching moe shows? No, it's just not the target audience, it's adults the ones who do that. You just have a skewed definition of what a modern adult really is.
>>142377161
>thinking jojo and bebop are objectively better than usagi
This is why you're a shounen kiddie with shit taste.
>>142377485
Lucky Star.

Well no, but I'd say it's above average. The characters are shallow but still likable, the unique European aesthetic and the running themes of coffee and rabbits are very comforting and adds a great deal to the atmosphere, the fanservice is rather gratuitous yet strangely refined and classy in a way, and the studio that handled the anime did an outstanding job. A solid 7/10 in my book.
People get way too involved in the shounen/seinen bullshit.
If it's run in a magazine or airs on daytime TV, the publisher needs to know what kind of ads to put alongside it and if it needs furigana. Outside of that, no one really cares. Kids watch kodomo and daytime shows, adults watch porn, and otaku of all ages watch everything else.
"Military otaku", "women who like athletic men doing athletic things", "mecha fans who buy models" etc. are far more meaningful demographics, and they span all ages.
Before Harry Potter sold more copies than the Bible, the idea of writing books explicitly for teenagers was a niche concept. Now everyone and their brother is writing "Young Adult" fiction, and people have this silly concept that some chinese cartoons are canonically more mature than others.

Absolutely shit taste detected. Gochiusa is timeless classic and the pinnacle of moe.
>>142377507
A shounen kiddie is someone who exclusively watches shounen thinking it's the only type of anime that exists. A moefag is someone who exclusively watches moe not because he thinks it's the only kind of anime, but because he's deluded himself into believing it's the only kind of anime worth watching. You're both two sides of the same retard coin, unable to form insightful or well thought out opinions because you're afraid of breaching the bubble. You remind me of an American.
>>142378390
The most memorable of it was the Coffee and GreenTea meme and Chino as a loli. Forgettable otherwise.
>>142370578
Because it's trageted at old men.

Yeah, so forgettable it's almost certainly getting a third season.
>>142379624
By the way, eight new character song CDs have just been announced. Gochiusa stronk.
>>142375343
Me in the bottom left.
>>142378445
You are forgettable.
the translated title is terrible
then again, the original title is shit as well
>>142379624
I bet you think Infinite Stratos is a genuinely good show as well.
>>142372294
/thread
These classification only concern the magazine that the manga is published in. Usually that magazine's range of mangas coincides with a particular shared set of characteristics (such as a common target audience) but it doesn't have to.
>>142379913
the translated title is literally the same as the original
>>142380007
>literally
there's your problem
>>142380072
why? it literally is the same
I can understand if you get triggered by something like "erased" and 僕だけがいない町 or something but this just seems pointless
>>142380135
>Nymphet
>>142379913
What's so bad about it? It's not like it makes no sense, it's literally a quote from the first chapter. Also some other mangas are already trying to copy it.
>>142380215
you're not making any sense anon, go to bed
>>142379990
I haven't watched Infinite Stratos, but it might be the case that it's the best in its genre. It's just that its entire genre is unredeemable shit.
>>142380289
>he doesn't know about the first time they tried to bring over Kodomo no Jikan
>>142380298
Good one Anon.
>>142380317
You mean the crappy baiting manga where the author did not have the balls and did a timeskip instead?
>>142376961
The Cocoa and Chino get normal votes, they don't get extra upvoted.
The manliest of men can find the pleasure in CGDCT because they don't need to show off their manliness watching gory shit. Just like how the manliest of men can fuck a dude in the ass and not be gay. They don't need to prove their manliness by fucking girls.

The author doesn't have balls. She has ovaries.
