seinen

Seinen is a genre of Japanese manga and anime aimed primarily at adult men, typically aged 18 to 40. It features more mature themes, complex storylines, and sophisticated character development compared to younger-focused genres like shonen. Seinen works often explore deeper psychological, social, or philosophical issues, and may include graphic content, sophisticated humor, or nuanced narratives. The art style varies but tends to be more detailed. Overall, seinen caters to an adult audience seeking stories with depth, realism, and mature themes.
