The japanese wiki is listing Shinigami no Ballad anime as "shounen muke anime" = anime for boys. why ? becuase the light novel is published under the Dengeki Bunko label which is a shounen label according to the publisher.

Lol Death Note is so screaming SHOUNEN with its good-looking/intelligent/talented male protogonist plus almost mirror image antagonist, people boys can look up to. I enjoy death note for its intelligent plot, but not as much as I would if I was younger.
Well.. I'm buying the Shinigami no Ballad light novels when Seven Seas publishes them. Hopefully they'll be more Seinen than Shounen.
