I would like to know some recent but decent SEINEN animes.

How recent?
2008 ->

Any category at that do fine

Style preferred would be realistic as seinen quite often are. No underage girl-harems.

Thank you for advance

Usagi Drop
Ikoku Meiro no Croisee
Sarai-ya Goyou
Mouryou no Hako
Nijuu Mensou no Musume
Shion no Ou
Moyashimon/Moyashimon Returns (CR will be running the first series at some point; wait for it)
Bakeneko/Mononoke
Bartender
Tokyo Magnitude 8.0
Showa Monogatari
Genji Monogatari Sennenki

That should give you a decent starting point. Some of these are from 2006-2007, but I included them in case you missed them the first time around.

I see you are in Europe which makes the links to streaming sites a problem. Most of these shows also have torrents, but I can't list them here because the shows are licensed in the US.

Don't we all. Meanwhile I found a link to the complete set of torrents for Genji and added it to the list. i maintain a fairly extensive list of bookmarks with the appropriate links, so it's not hard to provide lists like that.

I'll also mention Oh! Edo Rocket, Baccano! and Welcome to the NHK! if you haven't seen any of them. They're all licensed by Funimation over here. All Funi's shows are on Hulu which is probably available to you only via proxy.

Thank you

Oh! Edo Rocket and NHK! Seen good while ago.

Bunny Drop (actually I think this one is josei)
Madoka Magica (don't be deceived, it is seinen, it just pretends to be shoujo for the first few episodes).
Steins;Gate
Clannad: After Story (The first season Clannad is more shounen, but still worth watching)
Eden of the East

Technically shounen, but the more mature type:

Penguindrum
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Katanagatari

Why don't you give Phantom: Requiem of the Phantom a shot. I'm sure it'll fit the requirements you're looking for.

Rainbow: Nisha Rokubou no Shichinin. A recent (2010) drama about seven teenagers living in a Japanese reformatory in 1955. Quite bleak, but there's light at the end of the tunnel.

One of the few shows I have re-watched in the past couple of years.

Spice and Wolf
Spice and Wolf II

The S&W series is a historical adventure revolving around economics with a touch of refined, subtle romance.

Mushishi is also a top notch seinen anime but it aired in 2006.

Thank you very much, you can be sure I at least give each series a try

Idea of giving some year of recentness was only to limit answers so that there wouldn't be tons and tons of suggestions I already knew.
