Seinen - Similar in aspects to Shonen, but it aims for a more maturer audience and tend to have more violence, sexuality and/or psychology then most Shonen series. Example: Spoiler
Josei - A series that is aim towards older female audience. Unlike the idealistic shoujo series, Josei series displays more realistic interpretation on romance. Example: Spoiler

No.. Kawaii is in the OP, look again. And "desu" is just "am, are, is, be" essentially. Aha! glad i was able to find this again easily. Found this randomly a long time ago~ 100 Most Essential Words in Anime |

"Desu" has no literal translation in English, but it's used in places where it links the subject and verb (much like "is", but is not equivalent to) among a lot of other places. "Is" is also a copula. That doesn't mean all copulas are literal equivalents of each other. It's usually omitted in casual speech anyway. |
