In other words, for adults. Yes, adults. That was the intended demographic. Don't be fooled by the little girls with little dresses, it was made for adults. It's not the only one of it's kind either. Well "seinen" is directed towards men, and adolescent boys. ​ Which is exactly what the demographic that watched Madoka was. So it being 13+ still stands. However, even with the auidence partly being made up of older men, that doesn't neccessarily mean that the show is Seinen. I will retract my earlier statements about it being explicitly for children, but I do propose that it is for a wide general audience. I mean, they aired it on kid networks, so I presume that means its audience included younger viewers.
