I love seinen, and yes, I am superior. So is seinen in comparison to other demographics.

Whatever the genre, demographic or trope. Feeling superior just by watching is totally an immature thing.

Those who read and watch yaoi, shoujo, and Josei are superior

They act like a kids. The animanga you consume doesn't make you better than someone.

Understandable, especially if you belong to the seinen demographic.

I'd like to feel superior too but I just realized that shoujo, seinen and shounen are perfectly tied in terms of weighted score, according to my MALgraph.

I think they’re entitled to their own opinions. From my own experience, I haven’t seen/read many seinen but I found most of them very enjoyable - certainly a higher percentage than shounen. But I think it’s hard to compare 2 demographics that are completely different, especially when one is so much more popular and churning out several times more titles per year

The funny thing about it is that people who read seinen poo as much as people who read shonen and people who read shoujo and people who read josei.

Basically seinen readers are as full of shit as anyone else.

Anyone who watch or read a certain genre for a ego boost are worse then the people that they claim to be better then.

It's the same kind of mouth breathing people who only read classical literature or only listen to classicL music and nothing else are.

People who read and watch hentai can be superior.
People who like one genre thinks they are superior in their own way.
Everyone are superior.

I think people need to start realizing that these tags are not “demographics” nor “genres” but completely arbitrary labels that book stores, not pubishers and artists, put on material based on their own insights and consequently what tag a title receives can differ from book store to book store and they all have their own criteria.

People also need to realize that the word “seinen” means ”youth”, “adolescent” at best in Japanese, not “adult male”.

Only the most based of chads such as myself can appreciate the dark, mature and gritty characters that can be found in the seinen genre. Here's a few of my favorites:

Seinen is often directed towards a more "mature" audience, how far from the truth that actually is lol.

I find people who think like that to be quite silly lol. Having a strong preference for one animanga demographic over all the others is an odd reason to feel superior to other people, since great works can be found in all animanga demographics, but whatever floats your boat I suppose. 🤷‍♂️

This might come as a surprise to some of the seinen-only enthusiasts, but Himouto! Umaru-chan, Plastic Neesan, and Kiniro Mosaic are considered seinen as well lol.
