Sometimes it is classified as shojo or shonen, but it has distinct features, usually classified by a wider variety of art styles (particularly in manga) and more variation in subject matter, ranging from the avant garde to the pornographic. The female equivalent to seinen is josei.

A common way to tell if a comic is seinen is by looking at the title of the magazine it was published in. Usually Japanese manga magazines with the word young in the title ( Young Jump for instance) are seinen. Other popular seinen manga include Afternoon (magazine) and Big Comic . Many of these manga were published in English in the now defunct pulp magazine.
