Nothing to worry aboutso theyre developing fetishes now before dating huh
So wait, shouldn't Chieri need 125 times as much food as a non-giant teenager? Thankfully, there's another principle at play from biology instead of basic physics: Kleiber's Law. Essentially, as animals get bigger, their bodies get more efficient and their metabolic rates typically slower, at a rate proportional to roughly 3/4 of the mass.
(125 schoolgirls)^(3/4)=37.4 schoolgirls of metabolic rate.
Thus, if she eats at much as 37 non-giant teenagers, while enormous, to her mind she's only eating about a third (37.4/125~=.299) as much food as she'd expect, proportional to her size. She'd get full off of diet-sized meals (from her perspective), but tragically, could now only eat 30% the amount of same-scale cookies.
Yume-chan, however, is stuck with a 10,000 kcal choco-chip cookie.
Suspension of disbeliefI try not to think about Chieri's biology too hard. Thanks to the square-cube law, the ability of a warm-blooded animal to dissipate heat scales 10x slower than the rate that their total thermal energy increases. I watched a TED talk on this exact topic in the past, and Chieri is approaching the limit of mammalian bodies before their own body heat starts cooking the organs closest to their center of mass. And even before getting to that limit, the human brain will suffer damage at the elevated temperatures that her body would be at.
There is also the issue that the cross-sectional area of her bones scales linearly to her mass, thankfully, but the forces exerted on her body from falling or jumping increase in a square relationship to her height, so she would be shattering her bones with the way she jumps around.
Wdym, he's clearly climaxedMy man was terrified! That look on his face on pg 7, he thought he was gonna die
Thankfully the high-surface area layout of humans and our inordinate high number of sweat glands would likely alleviate the heat problems; as well, with size, you can lower your homeostatic "target" temperature and metabolic rate because of inherent gigantothermy. Body temperature can also vary independent of size: most birds have an internal temperature that would be a fatal fever to humans, while opossum's bodies are so cold it makes them near-immune to rabies. Appropriate optimization means elephants and giraffes don't bake their own insides to a crisp because of their size, but a mammal the size of Godzilla or kaiju-scale King Kong definitely would regardless.I try not to think about Chieri's biology too hard.
