I'm sorry, I can't post images bcs of a bug, but I urge you to google images 9 year old, 15 year old and 20 year old women and compare them with the pic in the meme... I don't care much for what weebs use to signify age in anime characters because that's a standard within an industry that heavily fetishises childish characteristics in women in general. If a sexualized character looks more like a real kid than a real woman, it's a problem.

Also "she's an older kid, c'mon" doesn't help the case even a percentage point.

Yeah, I can see that for sure.

I don't like the mini version "she's one thousand years old in the lore, she just looks like a kid" tho. I know some of you that see art like this more regularily might not see this the same because of what you've self normalized, but that right there is a preteen with slightly exaggarated breasts, and adding boobs to a child doesn't make fetishization of the other features of them any more exusable. (I know you aren't saying it is btw, it's a general statement)

Wow ok as someone who doesn't engage with anime much, some of you who've normalized the artstyle to yourself are blind about just how neotenous some anime characters are drawn to be
