Art which doesn’t not comfort to the anatomy of humans doesn’t exist?
That’s obv not what they were saying, cuz this is obv anime. But… the hands are the size of her eyeballs, her head is bigger than her entire torso, her neck is as thin as her arms which are thinner than her pupils. Well maybe not exactly, but the point is that real children have a similar head to torso ratio (relative to adults) and thinner and smaller hands and relatively larger eyes. Anime artists know that.
The point isn’t that the proportions aren’t human, the point is that they’re exaggerated in a way that’s closer to the size of a child. So the artist can make it unrealistic, but why make it unrealistic in a way that most people would see it as child like?
Genuinely tho, can someone tell me how? Anime character have ageless faces as the standard, even anime parodies make fun of this.
If someone drew my partner, who is a very well proportioned 5ft nada, with a generic anime style, the ageless result would look like the image in the OP. The image even has an hourglass figure. Where does the “child” idea come from?
The problem is less something inherently wrong with the anime style and more a conscious choice that is made in the anime industry. I think the issue gets illustrated by two quick googles and some scrolling.
Excluding the elderly women, your partner’s age group would probably be better represented by the middle aged women depicted in the second search. Anime isn’t inherently about hypersexualizing women and young girls, but a lot of anime studios have made that decision in their animes as part of catering to a male audience.
Like do a poll? Or just assume I know what other people think? We should hold the anime studios to account since they create the content rather than blaming it on Japanese culture. Any culture can hypersexualize people.
How do you tell it’s a child
Because of the tits.
This really does look like a kid with tits. No bueno.
Ok, I will bite.
For this to be true her head would have to end above her eyes. Her face is clearly oval.

I am truly saddened by the fact that at 18 we lose “bows in hair” license 😮💨
… What’s next ? Child-like posture or walking ??
If you would look at anatomy of adult woman and child you would notice that child’s torso sides are usually flat while woman’s have curvatures
If you want to make valid critique then you could have noted bigger head. Head on children is proportionally bigger than on adults
Gotta argue with this point

Because anime is all about sexualising children? You never noticed?
Literally missed the point 🤦♀️
I think this article does a good job covering the hypersexualization of Japanese women and young girls.

You know, an easier way to slove this is to ask what the general public will think, if the answer is pedo shit, you got it

You are thinking too hard about this, but if you want you can do a real life poll in your area, the internet is misleading
What do you mean? I think we should hold corporations accountable.
I’m good.
You must be reading some weird manga if its messing with your ability to judge whether that’s a child.
