It said soft seinen

soft seinen you retard

Whats this supposed to be? Popular manga as of late? Christ. This shitpost is the epitome of fail because the only people that would get irate over it would already be aware of the formulaic autism behind its creation and recover instantly. And what the fuck is Level E doing in there? In my day you were made fun of for masturbating over berserk, vagabond, and vinland saga. Fire punch is nothing, dorohedoro is great, jojo, one piece, and hunter x hunter are not seinen, Level E is the triangle amongst squares and rectangles, no one has given a shit about aku no hana in at least 3 years and it doesnt lick the boots of anything else there, devilman was written by the guy who did violence jack, chainsaw man is the only thing that might fit the bill here, and ashita no joe has nothing to do with anything. Can we campaign for an esoteric shitpost that isn't made by a robot? I am really disappointed in you OP. Did you think this shitpost made you seem knowledgable about manga? For example people who only knew 4 of those things would think you were amazing for knowing ALL 8? One of these days, after all of your old friends have moved to the next realm, and you are all alone and even the once youngsters comics are considered ancient scrolls, you are going to realize that children talking about their comics in your favorite retard forum is an experience you will never again relate to. And I want you to know you spent that time posting this on Yea Forums. I'm crying

Jojo is shounen through and through you guys are queers

So soft seinen is just mental gymnastics so you can like shonen but still feel like you belong to muh sekrit club?

nigga wtf are you talking about.
hard shounen's descriptor fits the three manga in soft shounen to a t.

why are the people trying to categorize things always the ludicrously stupid.

Never read chainsaw man or snk, haven't read berserk, hxh, or bleach since about 2008 for the lot of them. Can I join the club? I own about 800 tankobons of shit you've probably never heard of them. About 5% of them are in french

>Dorohedoro
>soft

дeбил

Dorohedoro was only in a shonen magazine for the last year of its run

>manga published on shounen magazines by mistake
It's still shitposting even if you're being ironic, user

Dorohedoro in spite of the brutality of the world has a pretty light, comedic tone
Did you even finish it? Remember the last fight?

and?
it's still not a shonen story

They moved it to a shonen magazine. Read the definitions here

seinen has never been classified based on tone and is as elucidating a classification of content as a "young adult" label on western fiction novels. it is the equivalent of a content rating. dorohedoro was allowed in a shonen magazine for the last year of its run because it was censored in the magazine the few times it tread the line. the rest of the series had brains falling out of skulls and tits + pussy every 5 seconds

Are you serious. I thought you were just shitposting. All of this because you like HxH and want to feel superior for it.

That One Piece bait is too obvious.

not to wave my dick around but there was a time where the HxH fans on Yea Forums would read shit like nora and waq waq and basically it was 2007 and the memes here looked like what you would call reddit cringe today because everyone was still in highschool and not a zoomer no life. there was no shitposting that wasnt state-sponsored, and everything was self-moderated. I would say in 2012 some weird trend started with jojo where everyone started waving dicks about what super power bullshit japanime comic they cummed on the most. HxH is so fucking stupid. retard with spiky hair goes fishing and his shota butt bodies do some yuyu hakusho shit in the chunin exams. they take it so seriously. they have no self-awareness at all. and there are 2 reasons for this. First, they dont read enough shitty manga to know whats worse than hxh. second, they dont read enough good manga to know whats better. when you have done both, you arrive at the obvious conclusion

>it is the equivalent of a content rating
Not even that, though there is some correlation
Seinen, shounen, shoujou, etc refer solely to the target demographic of the magazine. K-on is a seinen because it was published in a seinen magazine. The content of the manga itself is appropriate for all ages.
Chainsaw Man and Death Note are shounen because they're published in Weekly Shounen Jump. Their content is less appropriate

Attached: 1582901017961.jpg (1568x1145, 295K)

this is interesting and all, but where are the videogames?

more like you are the retard. 2 years of internet from the time I was referencing, and this is the most unhinged hxh shitposting you could fish out of your rear? you only prove my point. try making an argument next time.

Where the fuck is Hokuto no Ken? If published today it would be in a Seinen magazine. The fact that it was published in and popular within Shonen Jump was a major turning point in the publication.

yes but its splitting hairs. the content of K-on was otaku fetishism. they were rock idols in highschool, and there were plenty of panty shots and shit which wouldnt have flied in an established shonen magazine. it is interconnected with the demographic its marketed to. I will concede I did not elaborate the point on demographic, but this is a microcosm of the autism, my post and your reply. the distinguishing between the content and the intended demographic when they are interconnected, the content would not be what it was without the demographic, and all of the content is checked by editors to be made popular and appropriate for the brand and the demographic so the magazine sells.

Why are HxH fans so fucking embarrassing in everything they do

change of the times, but also fanboyism in general. obsessing over a manga, its characters, posting in generals. its all cancer. you never get any kind of perspective on manga as medium locked up in the retard box.

CHAINSAWMAN is good but you need to know what you're getting into. It's got an insane pace for the main story that feels blistering at times and yet at the same time there's several large pages with no dialogue or like 1-2 words spoken that are there to set tone or an emotion or a scene and that can extend to a full chapter.

Imagine a guy who literally had no real life until his late teens suddenly becoming a public employee for the organization that hunts and kills devils after bonding with a little devil when he was on the brink of death. Warm meals and a good bed are luxuries to him and his first self-set goal is to touch a tiddy.

Hokuto no ken was a great read (I cried a lot and I don't cry easily over fiction) as a teenager but I can't take it seriously anymore as an adult. It's like what you would get if you fused the cheesy 80s with the badass protagonist delievering his cheesy one-liners as he mow down hordes of mook with the ancient china martial art autism.
Here is a critic I found online that sums up pretty well my issues with the manga

>The sheer repetitive nature of the series. Innocent civilians/peasants/bystanders get oppressed->Douchebags revel in their misery->Kenshiro shows up and kills all of them->Rinse and repeat. Even the types of characters themselves are repetitive. If I'm remembering right, besides Kenshiro himself, there were approximately four types of characters in Fist of the North Star.
>Mentor characters that would ultimately accomplish nothing and die, giving Kenshiro the key to beating the bad guy
>Rivals or villains that appeared to be total jackasses at first but are eventually redeemed by the time they die through their display of manliness, valor, courage, etc.
>Scumbags without any morals who would ultimately be nothing but fodder.
>Helpless people who couldn't do anything without Kung Fu Jesus

I guess Shuumatsu no Valkyrie is Hard Shounen then since it's just a big tournament arc with crazy powers except they can show dismemberment and say Fuck.

Seinen doesn't mean "mature" you know?
Ashita no Joe has a better plot and dialogue than most tryhard seinen with gratuitous tits and gore.

seems kind of retarded but so is alot of manga Ill check it out

Chainsaw man is just an 90s edge comic done today by japan

thats true and thats why the shitpost works. its like posting some pemdas shit. the draw is the ambiguity and the truth being longer than a byte

Parts 7 and 8 are seinen. Fuck off

>"I like Wan Piss but am embarrassed by the fact that it's for kids"
Why didn't you just say so, OP?

They're the same shit, just longer and slightly better

Based Raoh and Toki steal the spotlight and make the manga worth reading.
They're completely different characters and both are cool as fuck.

Kenshiro is boring and it really is super repetitive but it's still enjoyable as an adult and the cheesy unironic lines can still be great quotes

There's nothing in K-on that wouldn't be allowed in most shounen magazines, IIRC the fan service is pretty tame. Not to mention WSJ has shit like Yuuna and CSM

It's for kids but it's very popular, it's very ingrained in modern pop culture. It's kind of like Spongebob or something similar here in the west.

If you can't have fun that's your problem but there's nothing wrong with the manga until it loses all internal consistently when Ken goes to Shura

>Ultra Jump is a Japanese monthly seinen manga magazine published by Shueisha under the Jump line of magazines.

This is completely unironic post but.
I have read every famous or not famous manga or anime you have ever heard of. I have the 4th volume of Ultra Heaven, I have all of Soil in french, I have everything by Matsumoto Taiyou, when I go to the toilet I wipe my ass with spare copies of bambi and her pink gun, and for the kids I read them Freesia.
I honestly think Avatar the last airbender blows out of the water so much shit that is celebrated in the japanese cartoon and comic tradition its offensive. Anyone think the same? For simplicity keep the comparison to things that try to push the button as childrens content

it was a change in times, much like how the west was autistic about gore much more back in the day. just look it up or believe me or look it up and publicly shame me with the evidence but nudity in childrens magazines was considered offensive, as was gore.

There are two (2) seinen in that chart.

>soft
I will forever curse the faggot who started this meme. Can't they use a less faggy word like semi, or pseudo etc. "Soft" seinen makes me think of the turds I take after eating something inappropriate.

Jojo actually went seinen and doesn't feel that much different than before.
At most you have that scene of a midget eating some bored whore out which probably wouldn't be allowed on regular Jump

I sum up CSM like this:
it had one tournament arc so far
it resolved in the same chapter it started
only two people participated
the tournament was about kicking a man in the balls
the winner is the person that can produce the highest scream

also, devils.

I don't understand what the a "soft seinen" is, but I feel like you're shitting on Dorohedoro somehow so fuck you. Also Chainsaw, HxH, OP, and Jojo are shounen.

>Ashita no Joe.
>layered plot
Have you actually read it?

Retarded shitposting like this is why I'm glad that I primarily read actual seinen manga like Divci Valka, Chi No Wadachi, Kendo Ankokuden/Shitouden Cestvs, and Vinland Saga.

To love ru was serialized in Jump at the same time K-on was running, so I don't think it's a matter of the times changing
Really young children aren't supposed to be reading shounen anyways, they'll be reading kodomo manga

I knew that this manga was something special when I got to this scene.

Sounds like it's the right word to use then

What the fuck is the difference between soft seinen and regular seinen when you have devilman on there and three aimed towards teens?

What the fuck happened to Yea Forums to start this mental gymnastic? That's the only place I can think of that would do just that.

Oh I'm laughing. I love it when people who don't know shit about what they're talking pretend to be speaking fact.

Have you? Joe captured a zeitgeist in Japanese history like no other work at the time. Film makers like Terayama praised Joe endlessly, Terayama even came in to write the lyrics to the anime OP he loved it so much. Even Mishima was known to drop what he was doing to read the newest chapters. It was something else and nothing like it will ever be made again.

Attached: hisoka33.png (282x251, 36K)

Shounen and seinen mean nothing except what kind of magazine they're published in. The only ones who care about those labels are 12-year-old weebs who want their favorite chinese cartoon show to be seen as "mature".

So Yea Forums has kept some sanity at least.

Not really, bnha threads still exist.

Part 7 was a huge departure from the original series. It had a much bigger emphasis on plot and character development and it handled more mature themes.

I never said shounen. I said aimed towards teens. Seinen is aimed towards adults, so I used the original and shounen is a bit wrong to say these days.

It's the american mentality of "things I enjoy nave to be deep and mature otherwise they are shit and I will be made fun of" applied to japanese comics using terms they actually don't know what they mean.

What are some good seinen? I’ve never read any

to love ru had so much censorship it wasnt even the same manga. thats what darkness was made for.

I love when people who have never been to Japan try to explain to me in memespeak that their anime/manga world as viewed from Yea Forums is reality when you had about 6 different laws on censorship of adult material in media passed in the diet in the last decade

Blade of the Immortal is pretty amazing

It's entertaining and has depth.
Definitely a must read. Unfortunately it has a slow start with tons of kiddy jokes before the writing and art improves so it may turn people off

A perfect example of "just keep reading it gets awesome"

What? It's enemy stand of the week with the main villain sending his goons after the protagonists until showing up for the final boss battle, like every other part. The plot is a lot simpler than part 6 too.

Kaiji, obviously

Attached: 1569704961563.png (891x1273, 514K)

It's one thing to capture the athmosphere of a particular time period and another - to have a layered plot. Joe is very simple when it comes to storytelling and characters. Even if that particular simplicity struck home with the majority of Japanese readers, it still is in the end just that, simplicity. Wanking its maturity over other shounen won't change that.

>Film makers like Terayama
A literal nobody, glad you're basing your opinion on that.

why does everything have to be fucking labeled? i get theres genres but what happened to just calling it action if it focused on action or drama if it focused on drama? "hard" shonen/seinen just seems like semantics

Vagabond is one of the best.

Anything made by Nobuyuki Fukumoto.
Good taste.

It’s kind of like cartoons. My little pony and that guy with the gems are for kids. The shonen of cartoons. Then you have Star Wars clone wars and uhhh I guess bojack. Stuff for teens and young adults. The seinen or cartoons. There’s no cartoons for adults, no gekiga. Maybe that fritz the cat but I’ve never seen it. Water ship down maybe

I think is very enjoyable but it's basically just a big tournament arc, plus it's monthly so the wait for chapters is long and there's only 28 out so far.

But Part 6 is dogshit and has some of the worst writing in the series. The only redeemable characters are Foo Fighters and Weather Report

>aimed towards young kids
>aimed towards teens

There, done.

I like Ichigeki.
It's probably Matsumoto Jiro's most digestible work outside of Freesia and maybe Uncivilized Planet.
Literally everything else he's made is fucking insane.

>There’s no cartoons for adults, no gekiga.
There's plenty aimed at adults but 80% are just sitcoms and most end up watched by teens that want adult humor in their lives.

There's some stuff for adults out there. Rob Zombie made one iirc. There's a german movie about cats that was pretty fucked up towards the end.

>There’s no cartoons for adults, no gekiga.
Primal.

I don't need to have lived in Japan to point out a moronic statements such as "panty shots wouldn't fly in a shounen mag". It's not a Yea Forums reality idiot, WSJ alone in this decade has published Yuuna-san, Shokugeki, and CSM and probably more that I can't remember, all of which have nudity and with Yuuna-san numerous panty shots. So saying stuff like that wouldn't fly in a shounen mag, and that K-ON being seinen is due to panty shots among other things is fucking dumb.

I'm up to date on Kaiji and have watched all of Akagi so I need some new FKMT

i think the repetitiveness is a good reason of why i like it (though im still reading it and almost at the end). its not overly serious and edgy, villains arent always dickheads with no reason for being the bad guy, and at times its almost like a gag comic with how kenshiro kills guys. its just dumb fun and i love it.

>Rob Zombie made one iirc.
The Haunted World of El Superbeasto. The problem with movies like that is that it's aimed at adults but the raunchy humor appeals to teenagers that see it as more of a taboo for them. Something like Primal as said is closer since it's a show with no dialogue and a more serious tone/story; younger audiences might find the blood in the action taboo in the same way as raunchy humor but it's not quite the same.

Go read Akagi and then Ten. For your own good. Kurosawa is fucking great too.

Would be better if Herc would fucking kick the bucket already. I want to know the next matchup.

That’s what I feel most adult cartoons tend to be, just adult comedy. There’s never anything serious. It’s more like hey shock value laugh.

You could make the same argument for Fritz tho, teenagers just want to see furry catgirl tits and cartoons curse

There's plenty of cartoons for adults. Archer, Bob's Burgers, King of the Hill, Venture Brothers, Bojack, etc. The problem is adults just don't watch them because they view cartoons only for kids, even though originally adults were the ones paying change to watch them.

NOOOOO HUNTERXHUNTER IS HIGH ART

>Literally everything else he's made is fucking insane.
That's because most of it is just him indulging in his fetishes.
Jigoku no Alice for his rape and crossdressing fetishes, Becchin to Mandara for his GWG fetish, Joshi Kouhei for his giantess, piss, and scat fetishes, etc. etc.

Everyone watched King of the Hill when I was growing up, even the elderly.

No-one's telling you not to watch kiddy shows, but at least be honest about it instead of trying to call an apple an orange.

I hope we don't have to wait years to see Tesla or Leonidas, I really want to see them.

I'd love to get into OP, but as a kid I didn't care for Buggy's design and that kind of put me off from the series. It seemed a little too "dumb" to me as a kid and I regret it now, as the sheer length of the series is what keeps me away currently.
Hunter x Hunter is the shit and I'm glad I got into that at the end of 2019, but I'm also glad I'm an anime only for it because that hiatus must suck for readers.
I'm at the very end of Greed Island Arc

SnK got so over hyped in the anime that I actually think became underrated because everyone wrote it off as main stream action shit after season 1.
I'll probably never swap to the manga unless they completely bungle the last season, simply because I love the animation and music the show brings. Genuinely believe its a classic in the making so long as things keep going as well as they are. Studio Wit possibly not doing the final season heavily concerns me though.
That said, they gave us the Vinland Saga anime which also is nothing short of a masterpiece.

Hxh manga is honestly a different experience, the 2011 anime feels mostly sterile and there is a certain grit to togashi's artstyle that it fails to replicate, there is also the fact that director of the anime stated that it was aimed towards a more kid demographic so you have a lot of kiddy songs in the ost with flashy visuals.

I like anime and all but this is fucking retarded. These labels mean nothing. It's all just anime shit. All of it is on the same level. If you truly care about this and need to call something "seinen" to feel better about yourself just remember that Umaru is considered seinen. Whatever you enjoy is on the same level as Umaru.

I definitely get that vibe with the OP.
I love some of the scenes I've seen of the old anime, but seems like it might be the case that its best moments outshine the 2011 series, but the 2011 is consistently higher quality over. I can't say for sure though.

Maybe once I finish I'll move to the manga. Who knows.

The bifurcation of young adult life into a public and private sphere.

I like physical stuff, and I got into it early as a kid when Naruto and Shaman King started getting serialized.
I don't collect a ton of manga compared to actual games/anime but I do have a decent bit.

i dont collect manga or anime physically but thats only because english translated stuff is expensive as af.

I was talking more 80 year old pre code stuff than stuff that modern.

Yes.

Tell me about it. I was in Japan last year and got Volume 1 of Steel Ball Run as a novelty for ¥500/$5.00
Literally half the price of what a US equivalent would be.

I love having shit on my shelf, but I've started to tone it back recently and import anime if the JP version has english subs. Otherwise I stick with my torrents and import merch. Less about the price and more that I genuinely hate what *most* english/western anime localization companies have become in recent years. 2007 was the end of their peak in my opinion and its only been a downhill spiral since. I don't watch dubs really anyway.

Only physical shit that I'm still 100% consistent with anymore is vidya.

>caring if a series is "shonen" or "seinen"
Yea Forums has been doing this shit since forever and it always was just a big sign of insecurity.

One piss is fucking kid shit, you nigger.

Have you watched any horror movies? I've been watching the hammer horror movies, really like them

I quit giving a fuck the day I learned what it was. It just helps signify what themes I might encounter in them, and thats it. I like generic shonen garbage and muh deep philisophical shit.

Thats a good quote.

That's a lot of slavery, gore, and death for a 10 year old.

Nah, just an American 10 year old.
In Japan it's pretty run-of-the-mill, even fucking Naruto had plenty of death and violence and fucked up themes.
The reality is that your average Jap 10 year old is probably about as mature as your average American 16 year old.

>The reality is that your average Jap 10 year old is probably about as mature as your average American 16 year old.
It's more that American values, particularly those of the parents, prefer to shelter children from those kinds of things. This feeds into how teenagers have a desire for "adult" humor and violence and animation is seen as for children in the west unless you're a Simpsons/Family Guy expy.

If kids can watch Watership Down then they can stomach a little slavery in their chinese comics. Unless you were super coddled as a kid.

Ive only just started reading it, but the large panels make the images look really nice and crisp from what I've seen so far. I never read the original release, but the sound effects are in original kana with small english onomatopoeia next to or below them.
Like your image might have *squish* in tiny font next to the ボキ or someone getting shot with crossbow bolts will have ドドド with *shunk* *shunk* next to them.
I'm not sure if thats how it originally was, but I think it looks nice. Much cleaner images than the pic you posted as well.

for some reason i thought it said "soft semen"
and thought also it was about chronic masturbations effects, and pictures were about porn.

I uld watch a chainsaw man porno, there is a lot of material to work with there.

>Eizoukenfag thinking he can criticise anybody else's taste.

So what's the difference between Shonen and Seinen?

If you want an exact age range I would say it's kind of nebelous.

eizouken is fun, but not what I like. Its a show that I think will be remembered more because it is "making" a show

Different demographics. Shonen is aimed at young boys to teenage boys, seinen is teenage boys to young men.

Shounen series are published in shounen magazines, seinen series are published in seinen magazines. People will claim that it means they're aimed for certain demographics, but in reality they can be just whatever under the sun. Bungou Stray Dogs is seinen and most of its fans are teenage girls.

Shouldn't you try harder?

That's because Bungou Stray Dogs is extremely gay.

>Yea Forums - anime & manga

>hunterfag talking about bad fanbases
the irony

Yea Forums has better anime threads than Yea Forums does, but only when there arent Yea Forums fags around shitting the threads up

Likewise Yea Forums has better video game threads than Yea Forums, but only as long as Yea Forums isn't around. Really makes you think.

>Fire Punch.
>Soft.
How do you fags always manage to prove within 5 seconds, that you have no idea what you talk about and make up terms to look cool.

This
Fire Punch is shounen

10 years old Japanese kids can handle it, unlike weak-ass mutt children
