1 - Team Medical Dragon - It's hard to follow most of the medical jargon in this one but man it really does makes you sweat reading it, my heart was like beating like crazy particularly at the scene of an operation.
2 - Crying Freeman - One of the best assasin manga ever to grace the planet, i'm lovin every chapter of it.
3 - Sanctuary - Hojo and Asami are men among mens, nuff said
4 - Dragon Head - What a psycho ride this one, it's suffocating and disturbing at the same time
5 - Worst - Although it is labeled as shounen, the characters and the plot in this manga doesn't look like a shounen manga at all so i had to treat it like a seinen
6 - Kiseijuu - The wierdest alien like creature in the manga world
7 - Island - Can't believed not many people know about this manga or more like manhwa, i mean seriously man, this is one hell of a ride kinda seinen manga, it's better than the one below
8 - Shin Angyo Onshi - The bad guys are too damn strong that i get tired of it in the end
9 - Vagabond - Samurai manga fans should really check this out
10 - Ghost Hunt - this one is pretty ridiculous cuz how in the world that this manga get be labeled as shoujo. Sure there's this one highschool girl in it but that's about it, i'd say it is more like a horror seinen

The target demographic isn't determined by the feeling it gives off, but the target audience it's published for. For instance, Worst is serialized in a monthly shounen magazine, which is what makes it shounen despite its typically more sophisticated storytelling. Ghost Hunt likewise is serialized in a shoujo magazine. The target demographic shouldn't affect how you judge the quality though, so it's not really an issue, they're just not seinen, technically speaking.

Quote from gentlebeast
I don't really read seinen because I'm not into fight scenes (I never know whats going on =="), but I can't get enough of Akumetsu >_<
fight scenes?....i think you're confusing seinen with shounen there pal, most seinens are more plot driven, random fight scenes is more of a shounen thing for the most part....but co-sign on the Akumetsu part

I've never really gotten a chance to get into seinen.
I couldn't really develop any interest toward the genre even when I tried, sadly.
Perhaps XXXHolic.

Quote from andshesaysiLY
death note and hellsing, they're both amazing
Death Note is shounen. The content is irrelevant, it was published in a shounen magazine (shounen jump, no less.)
