| If I had to choose between the two, I'd choose shounen, because seinen works tend to have weird, disturbing things in them, which I find offensive. Not everything about shounen is perfect, either. I generally avoid battle shounen, or anything that has extreme violence in it, so you'd never get me to read something like "Attack on Titan," because it's too violent for me. |
 |
| Both have merit and can be enjoyable. I find myself enjoying more seinen series like Hellsing, i do love gore and violence. |
 |
| Is this like a life-threatening scenario where I must choose no matter what? Am I forced to abandon one or something? If not then I'm not gonna make the decision. I'd like to have both because why not. |
| . . . |
| probably seinen, at the end of the day i enjoy them more than shounen with few exceptions, i'm not diturbed by gore or nudity and there are some works that you couldn't do in a shounen, other than shounens ebing stretched out for sales most of the time like whats happening with tokyo revengers, art in seinen is sually better too |
| Seinen easily. Shounen manga drop the ball too often and use way too many similar tropes. |
 |
| Seinen, because it's more palatable to me. |
| English is not my main language |
| i dont really have any preference, but almost all my favs manga is seinen. |
 |
| I would say shounen because a lot of my favourite anime and manga are shounen I like seinen as well but seeing as I'm in the shounen age group I like shounen a bit more |

| Both are ass. Drama is where it's all at imo |

| I think most of the series that I have read or am reading are mostly shounen genre. I don't particularly choose it but the series that appeal more to me happen to be in this genre. Series like One Piece, Bleach, Naruto, Fairy Tail, Death Note, Hunter x Hunter and many more are some of my favourites. Surprisingly Chi's Sweet Home is classified as seinen though it is a kiddy series where it illustrates a lost kitten's adventurous life after being picked up and lived with a loving (human) family. |

| seinen for manga shounen for anime |
some of the kindest souls I know have lived in a world that was not kind to them. some of the best human beings I know, have been through so much at the hands of others, and they still love deeply, they still care. sometimes, it´s the people who have been hurt the most, who refuse to be hardened in this world, because they would never want to make another person feel the same way they themselves have felt. if that´s not something to be in awe of, I don´t know what is. --- bianco sparacino --- |
| Mangaka/Author + actual content > Every demographic |
My Rereads | My Favorite Mangaka | Soylent Green Buy stuff, or buy at least your favorites if you can afford it - Don't be lame. D W-W&N π€ MAL is a far cry from being my main literature site, that's why I won't be doing mere single chapter updates anymore. Manga- aka Baka-Updates + 2 French ones are miles better and more thorough/complete + less restricting. The latter are perfectly suited for Manga/Light Novel/Books collectors such as myself. Less stressful/tiring this way. -g- |
| I guess demographics mean nothing. Shonen  Seinen  |
 |
| Seinen since they have more cunny! Lolis are goat. |
 |
| Shonen is about boys surviving because they are main character, seinen is about men strugguling to achive their goal (ex. Guts wanting happiness) Seinen is also way more realistic most of the times. So seinen. |
| e |
| i choose both! -- (if i absolutely Had To) i'd probably pick seinen - just coz i find things more unique/ more interesting there.. but really, there's amazing manga in both categories! |
| Shounen isn't a definitive term, so yeah! Very broad stuff. At this point, I'll read any manga as long as it ain't kids stuff or centered around some reincarnated dweeb doctor assumed to have potential for supergenius intellect overnight. Once a loser, always a loser. Even in the next life. |
| I don't really care about demographic of manga, it describes nothing about manga. I'll read any manga I find interesting. |
| Deffo seinen. I enjoy a good shounen now and then but they always start to feel repetitive after a while. With seinens I can explore a vast arrange of topics/perspectives/philosophies no matter how taboo (of course I still have my limits haha). |
| Seinen, because i am an adult. |
| Neither. Demographic is entirely arbitrary. |
