Am I weird bc I think he looks like an adult I think anime and Bl manwha have conditioned me to be able to tell age lmao. I was like “this guy is probably like 20-23” and boom, he’s 24 makes me think of Hyesung from Love is an Illusion. I read that manwha not thinking he looked like a kid at all, I think he looked early twenties and I found him cute, but then I saw comments saying he looked 12 and it felt like shota…and I was so confused
I do think part of the factor is... We basically just like knew that this character is an adult and not a child. Like we don't have an "assumption" or like "why this dude look like a child?" Cause our mind like didn't "programme" that way. I also think it's weird for ppl to ASSUME that they were a child just because of what? They have petite bodies? I do think the ppl that immediately thought that they're a child, is the one who make me.... "??? Eum how can you even think it like that?" (Not that i care though)
Cause same as you, we could probably TELL that they're an adults cause our mind definitely tell us "hey they're an adults" to put it simply, just imagine your mind/thought branched into two different directions. One, is the one who thought these characters are adults and probably just have a petite bodies. Two, is the one who thought that these characters look like a child. And we probably are the first one not the second one.
And same as you, i'm also kinda confused like, why would you ppl assume something like these characters look like kids? Shouldn't your first assumption have to be something like "oh they're an adults but have petite body" or "oh they're an adults but on the smaller side one maybe cause of their races, genetics? Maybe they've been malnourished since they were a kid" or something like that...
I'm also surprised everytime ppl commenting something like that like... "Huh? You think it... In that kind of direction.... Like..... How?"
yall cannot be serious. yea its true that many artists just have an artstyle where adults have smaller proportions, but that ok bc its the overall ARTSTYLE. for this artist we literally have the ml who is 2x the size of the mc with completely different matured features so in comparison ofc mc is gonna look like a newborn. in this case it's on PURPOSE that the artist drew the mc to be innocent, childlike, and malnourished looking considering her other characters who she draws way differently.
The purpose there is just size difference and to make the MC cute/weak. Not necessarily “omg, THIS IS A CHILD”. If my man didn’t even come up to the ML’s waist and his body was 2x smaller I’d think it’s a child. But his current design, looks like that of a 18-22yo. But next to the ML, I will admit that sometimes it makes him look childish. But that’s just bc the ML is super big
wtf what 24 year old grown ass man is built like this he literally looks fresh out the womb
