Target demographics heavily influence content. Shonen manga is geared towards young boys, focusing on action and adventure. Shojo manga targets young girls with romance and slice-of-life stories. Seinen and Josei cater to mature audiences with more complex themes. American comics similarly segment by age and interest (e.g., all-ages, teen, adult). Webtoons often cater to a younger, digitally-native audience, with a focus on romance, fantasy, and visually appealing art.
