"If you tremble with indignation at every injustice, then you are a comrade of mine"

When the union's inspiration through the workers' blood shall run
There can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun
Yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one
For the Union makes us strong

The manga is published in Nakayoshi Magazine (なかよし). According to the
Japanese Wikipedia article about Nakayoshi Magazine, its genre is shoujo manga
(ジャンル: 少女漫画雑誌). They use the word "genre" (ジャンル), but many people
would say that the technically correct word in English is "demographic". The
Wikipedia page also says that the target readership are girls in elementary school
and middle school (読者対象: 小中学生の少女). I had a look at the manga of
Sabagebu, and this sounds reasonable to me.

I am going to go way out on a limb here and say that the anime adaptation is not
so suitable for girls in elementary school or even middle school.

Maybe ... that means that this is a seinen anime ...

The manga has a completely different feel.

Make them lollies, then you can label it as Seinen.

@bethelwho
Is it more serious, does it have actual gun porn and taking it seriously(it's a shoujo manga, I don't expect such things).

2 series in the same genre has still have a very different feel to it. Unless you think about like Barakamon and Aria have a similiar feeling as series such as Detroit metal city and KKK.

Something cannot feel like a Seinen.

Seinen is merely the publication demographic.

It has absolutely nothing to do with content.

K-on! is seinen.

Of course it can. If it feels like the show is meant for a seinen audience (men aged 18+), then it feels like a seinen. It's pretty simple.

I do concur with OP.

Who the heck is this show aimed at? How does the studio expect this to do well? It's not for the shoujo demographic, C³-bu (which it seems to be a direct parody of sometimes) didn't do that well, and gag series are a dime a dozen.

Who cares what it's target demographic is when it's AOTS.

Nothing in this series feels like it's aimed at teenaged girls.
