Abstract: The category of bisemimodules over a semialgebra with the so called Takahashi's tensor product is semimonoidal but not monoidal. Although not a unit in the base semialgebra has properties of a semiunit (in a sense which we clarify in this note). Motivated by this interesting example, we investigate semiunital semimonoidal categories as a framework for studying notions like semimonoids (semicomonoids) as well as a notion of monads (comonads) which we call -monads (-% comonads) with respect to the endo-functor This motivated also introducing a more generalized notion of monads (comonads) in arbitrary categories with respect to arbitrary endo-functors. Applications to the semiunital semimonoidal variety provide us with examples of semiunital -semirings (semicounital -semicorings) and semiunitary semimodules (semicounitary semicomodules) which extend the classical notions of unital rings (counital corings) and unitary modules (counitary comodules).
