Doppia Kappa, true, Seinen manga/anime is 18+, but Shonen ranges from pubescent to adolescent, so just below 18. With that being cleared, I see why you would consider Madoka a Seinen. I'm not entirely convinced it is though. I'm not saying it's for little girls either, but at teenagers can handle themes of death, the needs of the whole before the wants of the individual, grief, etc(and many other themes present in Madoka). It doesn't help that the demographic wasn't explicity stated either. Unless of course, they did and I just never saw it. *shrugs*.
