I swear, anime fans can't keep getting away with their soft-pedophilia.

Does Inuyasha promote bad relationships? 🤔

I mean, Inuyasha himself is constantly hung up on his dead ex-girlfriend, and his dead ex-girlfriend still hates Inuyasha for killing her, even though he didn't and she fucking knows it was actually Naraku.

Meanwhile his current maybe girlfriend is only like 16 and he at least a hundred years old.

I thought about this a lot the other day.

Its "justification" is in that era girls go married off even younger than that.

That monk dude has to turn away a girl who's.. 14(?) after she asked him to take her with him and that she'd bear his children.

Personally, in that setting I think it's fine as long as they are not like fanservice to the viewer and its actually plot relevant. The monk asking her originally is more for humor as it was clearly shown as ridiculous and when it was more "legal" he took it more seriously and shot it down. That kind of humor is definitely a product of its era (wasn't the age of consent in Japan like 12 until less than a few decades ago?)

Also regarding Kagome, this anime was written by a woman and one of the main demographics is schoolgirls who want their heart to flutter by imagining themselves in a pseudo-isekai. Not saying it makes it right but it personally doesn't bother me because I get why stories like that exist coughTwilightcough

EDIT: The constitution set it to 13. But most prefectures up-ed it to 16 in recent decades apparently

Would Friren count? Romance of the two teens are age appropriate for them. And two dudes that are enamoured with older women, but I think that’s it.

I've been keeping my eye out for anime I can watch with my early teen daughter, and the intersection between good anime and anime that doesn't require ample amounts of jiggle physics is fairly small.

The list is pretty much:

  • Mashle
  • Dragon Goes House Hunting
  • Cells at Work
