I simply think making them college student would make more sense. But Japan prefers to write stories about high schoolers. Which I don't appreciate considering the recent chapters.
Pretty sure this will be a smut if they were adults already
In the earlier chapters they were drawn like high schoolers. But the art has changed drastically. Also the running joke that yoshino looks mature for her age that ppl think she’s a hostess
They already were doing naughty things together. All I'm saying is the story would make more sense for a Yakuza man and a Yakuza woman. They're already doing things way more mature for their age. Killing people and fending for themselves and whatnot. I think the story would be cuter if they were adults. Rather than children doing semi-adult things already.
not disagreeing per se but idk if I'd call killing people a matter of maturity lol
I think the point of this story isnt that its believable that high schoolers would be like this, in the same way that Tokyo Revengers isn't. (i dont mean the time skip part I mean the lets all pretend high schoolers and middle schoolers are badass gangsters like that and that a woman with a fully grown brain would still pine over her middle school crush in her 20s part). It is for sure tho not for everyone and I think the shiny art misleads people lol.
Teenagers joining the gangs is even common in the US. But hey, this is all about the preference. A yakuza man having flings with older women (even when he was...very young), and Yoshino in an arranged marriage set up by her Yakuza family.
This is very much a Japan thing where they prefer telling the story through the lense of children. Rather than adults. And this is tagged as seinen, so people should know what they're getting into.
I sometimes forget how young they actually are because of their appearance. Like they look so mature for their age that Yoshino might look older than me considering im already 22 and people sometimes thought that im 12-13 yrs olds（/TДT)/
