What’s the BEST Seinen manga out there?
>>282172347Saki
>>282172347No fucking idea about lower left,But since when dress up darling is a seinen, OP....
Your picture is garbage and I hope am the last reply
>>282172574Since it ran in a seinen magazine
>>282172669That doesn't mean anything, HxH runs on a shounen mag and it's a seinen
K-On!
>>282172711That is not how it works. Seinen is not a genre, it's a demographic. That's why K-On and Berserk are both seinen manga.
>>282172883This is why seinen is the best of the four demographics. So much variety
>>282172347Rate my taste
One PieceYou know it's true.
>>282173616GTO’s a shonen technically but I like your taste 9/10
>>282174993Shit you're right!It really doesn't look like one
>>282172347You're welcome
>>282172711Why are hunterfags like this?
>>282175342Baby's first "DEEP" manga.
Dungeon Meshi is Seinen.
>>282172347The NTR one.
>>282173152a lot of older shoujo and josei authors had to basically adapt their stories to seinen mag standards to get a wider audience too, and as a result, shoujo and josei mags are now almost exclusively trashy wish fulfillment romance in modern or period type setting.
>>282172347Medalist
>>282175980>shoujo and josei mags are now almost exclusively trashy wish fulfillment romance in modern or period type settingWasn't that always the case?
>>282176010was a significant majority of them always like that? sure, but it wasn't almost exclusively that kind of story. there were many action fantasy shoujo, sci fi shoujo, plenty of magical girl shoujo, historical political shoujo, various other mech and battle shoujo, lots and lots of interesting isekai shoujo, and similarly plenty of more complex josei stories and series. They all had the common love interest element present in them of course.
>>282172347
>>282172347For me it's Touge Oni.
>>282172347>>282176413Or TWIM
>>2821723471/10 l 4/108/10 l 7/10Is this really the best seinen has to offer?
>>282176504>GochiUsa>8/10
>>282172347Blade of the Immortal
>>282173616>>282174993Corrected
>>28217669810/10, there’s a lot of good romance seinen to choose from>>282176434I’ve never read this manga. This image is oddly unsettling
>>282176274I doubt that Josei has changed much, it's always been the smallest and least lucrative demographic. It does feel like the game has changed for shoujo manga, but it's hard to tease that apart from the game changing for shounen and seinen as well. Female-centric manga are much more common across the board and although their tone is different in the male demographics, it's hard not to wonder what magazine a manga like Sukeban Deka would run in if it was made today.Plus "trashy wish fulfillment" has permeated so much of everything it's hard to see that as a trend unique to shoujo or josei manga.
>>282177622>This image is oddly unsettlingIt does get spooky at times.
>>282172347Fate Prisma Illya
>>282177622>10/10, there’s a lot of good romance seinen to choose fromI actually haven't read a lot of them. It's my least favorite type of genre and my taste is very specific. Which one would you recommend?
>>282176459Fucking unforgettable.
>>282172347>muh dress up darling seinenWut?
>>282180457https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gangan_Comics#Young_Gangan_(since_2004)It fits.
>>282172711>>282175342hunterfags still mad that they didn't make the cut to a mature seinen magazine unlike the real deep series like Re:Zero.
>>282172574The line between Seinen and Shonen is awfully tin.
>>282177622>I’ve never read this mangaIts jap mythology mixed with Lovecraft-like cosmic horror.
>>282178168It’s one of my all time favorite manga, and it actually sticks the landing.
It is imposssible to have this discussion in normalfag polluted environment . Since they don't read the good manga and treat they "seinen" part as exotic tag devoided of it's meaning.Not to mention they don't read anything that came out before 2010 but unironically read webtoon trash.
>>282184379The World Is Mine is the GOAT
>>282172574>>282180457Seinen doesn’t need tons of blood and guts in order to be seinen>>282177926Kaguya-sama, Skip to Loafer, Ase to Sekken
>>282185153>Kaguya-samaLoved the first half, hated the second>Skip to LoaferLooks cute but sexless. I'm too old to commit to a long romance manga with no kisses or physical intimacy.>Ase to SekkenYeah, it was on my top
Gunnm. James Cameron approved
>>282186243Pretty good but it felt a bit overrated
>>282181999Comic Alive is shonen though.But people completely overinterpret those categories. The most relevant difference is whether something has furigana and even that's not absolute.
>>282188807https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monthly_Comic_Alivewikipedia lists it and Big Gangan as seinen lol
>>282190086English Wikipedia is useless when it comes to manga.You may recall the afterword in Otome Kaiju Carameliser where Spica Aoi talks about making a shonen series before they told her to go full shojo.
>>282174302Only if it gets a Admiral gaiden spinoff
>>282172347>Urasawa>goodKEK>PlutoForced drama, Tank thicc plot armor and not the slightest idea how technology should work.AYYYYY dios mio, why people exists that that likes to lick the balls of this hack is beyond me.
>>282172574Ya I always thought of it as a mild josei bordering on Shojo. The dude was the catch not the chick and he had bigger hands
>>282173616giga normalnigger taste
20th century boys is shit and im tired of fucking faggots praising it to the worlds end.
>>282172347Lone Wolf and Cub
>>282172347Golgo 13
>>282172347Gunnm/Last Order/Mars Chronicles and Panzerkunst Chronicles soon to be added.
>>282195785ok, ill bite, i just read the first series because of ye olde ova, was interesting>last ordershit got outta rails, I dropped itso please, tell me sempai, what did I miss?
>>282188252>overratedThen where the fuck is the rows and rows of adaptation motherfucker>>282196343Some pretty cool batshit insane fights
>>282193898I don't think you know what that word means
>>282196343>I dropped itHow far did you get? For as much as i love LO, i can understand why someone that liked the original wouldn't like LO. >What did i missExpansion of the scope of the story. Whereas the OG manga is mostly about Scrap City and nearby areas. LO is about the entire solar system and how the world came to be and the current order at stake. Exploration of gally's past as she butts heads with Demigods in the kinoest Tournament arc in manga history. And Sechs being the greatest transexual to ever grace fiction.
>>282172347none of these
I liked Freesia.
>>282175806And absolute garbage.
>>282175949Hellsing
>>282173616>Blame! >Gantz>Usogui>Ai-Ren
What's even the definition of 'seinen'?
>>282203490Magazines that aren't shonen, shojo or josei. It's as vague as it gets.
>>282172347why does manga about female children being serialized in seinen magazine?
>>282193510he's the only writer that can write dialogue like real lifealso pluto is written by tezuka not urasawa
>>282203490Young men
>>282203514no, seinen doesn't mean magazine
>>282203639The history of Kirara goes as follows:Houbunsha launched a weekly manga magazine, Weekly Manga TIMES, in 1956. In 1981 they launched a spinoff magazine for 4koma, Manga Time. In 2002, after seeing the success of school girl 4koma series like Azumanga Daioh, they launched a spinoff to Manga Time called Manga Time Kirara. This turned out successful so they launched Manga Time Kirara Carat in 2003 and Manga Time Kirara Max in 2004 where Gochiusa is running since 2011.These magazines are typically read by adults and are not specificially aimed at women, therefore they're occasionally counted as seinen. Though you'll also see 4koma magazines as a separate category.
>>282185153>adult manga>it's about childrenYou and the retarded company that put Gochiusa in Seinen magazine should kill themselves.
>>282203681青年 (not to be confused with 成年) refers to young males or young people but the manga term also includes series for older people so the literal meaning is pointless.You've got a group of magazines with Young in the name that are sometimes grouped together as Young Manga.
>>282182908The lines between seinen and shounen is called furiganas next to kanjis, explicit sex and uncensored tits.
>>282203746>explicit sex and uncensored tits.No. There's seinen with censored nudity and sex and shonen where it's uncensored.
>>282203713Are you also going to complain about Crayon Shin-chan? At least the girls in Gochiusa are out of elementary school.
>>282203773japan can be retarded, anonfor instance they put sexy 3D girls in a manga magazine
>>282172347This is the best Seinen
>>282203741no, both 青年 and 成年 refer to agethe manga or magazine being called that way because it's aimed at that agethe company that put the story of children in adult magazine is clearly retarded, and you're defending japanese retardation
>>282203934You're retarded and don't know Japanese nor Japanese culture. Shut the fuck up
>>282203707I don't see anywhere the magazine calling itself seinenhttps://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/まんがタイムきららMAXsounds like they just pick any manga titles at random, not caring about the manga content being related to adulthood or not
>>282203945here's some wikipedia articles written by actual japanese>https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/青年>https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/成年and yes both kanji mean age, not magazine
>>282203983I fuck up the linkshttps://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/青年https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/成年
>>282203983And did you not read them? Not seeing any difference?
>>282172347I'm gonna go with Hellsing
>>282172347>seinen, consists of sei + nen>the word nen (年) literally means year/age>retards still call it magazine and not ageguys, seek therapist
>>282203952>読者対象 10代 - 20代男女[1]mmm
>>282204043青年 means youthful years, a period within the human development cycle.Manga magazines use it as a demographic categorization.It is most definitely not "age" by definition. You cannot define an age simply saying 青年 since it encompasses a very wide age range.I suggest you keep your mouth shut on matters you know nothing about.
>>282204043
>>282203983Try reading thishttps://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/青年漫画
>>282203952>sounds like they just pick any manga titles at random,The Kirara line works by having artists appear as guests. They get to publish around three chapters and depending on how the readers react they get serialized or not.
>>282203934Have you ever tried reading Comic LO? That's 成年向け but it's full of children below 15.
>>282203679That's fujo tho
bump
>>282172347Hidamaro no Ki, by TezukaTheres others historical dramas as well, and even some food manga, they are all better than your borderline shonen
