>>87117 (Cross-thread)It has to do with Japan age laws being fucked in cases of a few anime I've seen they follow the just legal or barely legal ages of there government
For us that's 17 barely/18 legal
For Japan its 12 barely/ 13 legal.
I've analyzed this fact from certain show dialogues
Examples in The World's Finest Assassin Gets Reincarnated In Another World As An Aristocrat the father congratulates his son for his first minute saying my boy is finally a full adult man or something like that when his age is 14. In a distance scene later on in same anime the mom pervertedly talks about him impregnating someone and giving her grandchildren. But what catches my eye in this duologue is that she says before he gets too old acting like he's in his 30s or something keep in mind only 14 (well technically a 40 year old man in a 14 year old body but that's not important)
Another example is hells paradise there's this girl 17 shes a prisoner talking to her body guard (she was jailed on some bullshit completely innocent keep that in mind guard knows her story too) anyways girls essentially sent to this island as many prisoners are to die. But you can watch the show itself for the plot if you like it's actually really good! Back to it said girl got covered in something and is bathing by the ocean to scrub it off it's only a back shot. Guy catches a glimpse and goes nerd panic on her . At first he thought it was a guy she tells him nope you've been chilling with a girl the whole time.
Nerd flusters more and tells her to cover up. More content they just got out a fight in which he took some wounds for her and saved her life.
So here's where the important part comes in. She cracks a joke I can't remember it exactly but she says how she's about to become of age 18 and jokes (my hero! Maybe if I get out of this alive I'll have to put a ring on that finger and become your bride) it's quite wholesome actually. And in normal context like this I feel it would be a tragic love story thing.
But there's some context I left out for the sake of a social experiment and mind game with you all.
She's actually 12 going on 13......
But you see the way I tricked you mind by aging it up to our laws and standards
The point of this hopefully not too creepy as fuck rant is this
Tl:Dr if Japan's laws were 18+ then a lot of there waifus would be too and ages wouldn't be so fucked. Some mangakas might just be following the laws of there country and not know how age laws are in the west.
Or at least that's my theory A FUCKED UP GAME THEORY
