People have been throwing the word pedophilia around way too much these days. Pedophilia is attraction to prepubescent children. This is a 17 year old, which in certain countries is nearly a legal adult.
And about their sexual relationship, it's not ethical, not appropriate, and it is exploitative and disturbing. But again it's not illegal, majority of countries have the age of consent set at 16. (Also I checked and in China it's 14, so that's even lower)
So, is this slightly off-putting? -Yes. Is it pedophilic or legally wrong? -No.
And before you start calling me out, I didn't say anything about a relationship like this being okay. I am just tired of people calling authors disgusting and their content pedophilic when it's not the case.
Warning: there is a spoiler in the creator's note (chapter 27.5)
