Because MC is reincarnated, born as a baby, grow up as 5-6 years old and is acting on her age as a kid. It's normal because not all kids acted like a mature adult. At least it's a bit realistic instead of a child becoming a prodigy at the age of 4-5 years old with people going crazy for her and being overly doting. If you don't like a reincarnated child acting on their own age, go read manhwa ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Yeah but consider the following
She has retained all her memories. WHY IS SHE CRUSHING ON A SIX YEAR OLD?
She's a child of course she's going to have a crush on a kid. Just because she have her previous life memories doesn't mean she's an adult already. She have a body of a child and a mind of child not a freaking adult. You guys are so weird for thinking that.
???? How does one retain 20+ years of memories and experience and just automatically regress to 6 year old mentality. It litteraly doesn't make sense. If she got vague memories and had insticts or sum yeah you'd have a case. All I see right now is that she is going to be visited by Chris Hansen soon.
They're the same age wtf. Do you want it to be like those manhwas or other mangas that married their guardians/love interests with a terrible age gap? At least the author set their age right instead making MC an adult. You're a creep for thinking like this.
A lot of manga or light novels have a grown up reincarnated and being influenced by their body's age, it is not that weird. And have you ever read 'Charlotte has five disciples'?? It is super weird to see it from the other way too, a reincarnated girl who now is about 14 to 16 talking about perspective partners in their 70s or 80s... many of whom she mentions have already died...
I really only take issue with it if they were to try and sexualize the relationship when the kids are younger than puberty. As long as they wait for the physical relationship to begin (or to be fantasied about) after the age of adulthood and with both parties consent, it is just another normal relationship.
I'm a creep bc the lady in a a kid's body swooned at the 5 year old and I think it's extremely weird? Ok man I'm a creep.
I honestly would rather they just put off dating or the author not show attraction like that till she's like 20. I'm not saying their relationship is sexual I just think she's a creep and alot of the reincarnation Mangas are borderline grooming. Grooming doesn't need to be sexual.
Hello, I happen to stumble into this convo. Have you seen the film "Poor Things"? It follows the story of how a mad scientist put an infant's brain into an adult woman's body and throughout the film we get to see her "literal infant brain" adapt to her adult body rapidly and explore sexual relationships with other men while technically still being a baby. The entire movie felt like a moral dilemma.
So anyways, most reincarnation manga or manhwa does feel wrong since it's an adult in a child's body... especially if they act mature and still get into "relationships". In this case however, her memories needed to adapt with her body. I guess you can say it's like giving a 6 year old free access to her past life but it doesn't erase the fact that she is a child, just equipped with adult memories. Still feels weird but it is what it is.
This how the authors wished to proceed with their stories and many people enjoy it.
P.s. I've dropped many stories because of this too, sometimes there isn't enough fluff to cover the weirdness of the fact that they have adult memories.
Honestly if they, the author, just made them have vague deja vu or something it'd be less weird but at that point just make them a smart baby no need for reincarnation. Or maybe just have them reincarnate into adults. It's just weird man and I've seen too many manwhas where they have sometype of slave (kid) that they raise(as a "kid") and then marry.
Simple my good friend. reincarnation is different from transporting in a body. Just because this person was reborn and remembers their past life doesn't mean they are that old. That's a past life. I repeat. A past life. Meaning the past life doesn't count As in it wasn't her life, but her past life. Sure it effected her, but that doesn't change she's a kid ya know. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
To put it simply, regaining memories of your past life is knowing a long, hugeass story or watching a long, hugeass movie.
I get you to be creep about this but reincarnation is real for Buddhism believer. And the real meaning of reincarnation is a person SOUL not age begins a new life in a new body. And even she maybe have a 20 years old memories, it will never change in our nueron in our brain so as i Psychology student, whatever our neurons is it will always based on our age and growth. If you are 5 years old, you will act as 5 years old, even if you have 20 years old memories, Because that is "ONLY 20 years old MEMORY", PAST LIFE IS only MEMORIES. It doesn't define a child present action but this plot defines, is a child genius.
So it's creepy for normal people because i understand you, that girl child is still a 20 years old in terms of MEMORY. But let's just stay put and if you don't like this kind of plot, i suggest you to read other type of story and don't ever plan to read this kind of plot if you find it weird (๑•ㅂ•)✧
I agree fullheartedly with you. It's weird when you have lived an entire adult life but regressing to a child just because you are in a child's body. Also other commenter, referencing a really bad movie doesn't right this wrong that is this story
So how old was she when she first died? Like I honestly don't get why they show us these stories from when they're six. Lady looked early twenties and she just acts super childish. Like bro she has all her memories but she doesn't grasp the seriousness of her situation at times. I only read the first 2 chapters but she's so...weird... crushing on a six year old. Ew. I seriously need to understand why no one commented about this.
