My problem with some seinen animes are how edgy and how much they try hard with all the "adult" scenes. The older I get, the more I think that gratuitous sexual or gore scenes are more interesting to teenagers, or maybe that's just me being overexposed to that kind of content too early.
Of course like anything else, there are good and bad , regardless of its demographic groups. I have all-time-favorites from all demographic groups (shoujo, shonen, josei, seinen) that are close to my heart. Vice versa, all of them have their fair share of meh stuff.
I think that's more to do with the writing quality than anything, really. As you've said, there's Shonen stuff that isn't just generic Highschool drama stuff, like HxH and JJK as previously mentioned, but I tend to enjoy Seinen more than the average Shonen because the themes and settings are more relatable to me as an adult.
~~And I'm not going to lie, I kind of have a guilty pleasure for some edgy stuff every now and again.~~
