Realistically you can't compare them. For one thing in a human you're talking about mental maturity, which is a process that takes time. For an AI it's conceivable that it has that level of maturity innate to its code, or rather than conceivable more like why would you not? Though you may have some kind of training phase, but there is no reason to ever make that phase occur even as late as when you put it into the android body. Time scale is also incomparable, because you could totally have an AI that can process thoughts tens of thousands of times faster than a human. Well actually considerably faster than that, as far as I am aware no signal in the human body can travel even 500kph, as where in an AI you could well be talking about signals traveling near the speed of light.

My stance on this overall is, that if you build a sex bot that isn't mentally mature enough to fuck from the time it is physically possible to fuck it, you fucked up. I guess it could be that instead the creator is fucked up and are into that, but still it's either intentional or a mistake, but not out of the creator's control.
This tickles my inner philosopher.

Mei appears to be able to pass the Touring test, and is functionally on the same level of self-awareness as a human (or elves, dwarves,...). Should this grant her any rights like the protections animals enjoy, or even rights similar to those of humans? Let us assume they enjoy the same rights as humans.

The fundamental reason behind pedophilia being illegal is the irreparable harm it is almost certain to cause the victim. Based on the statistics of human development, countries set an age limit for sexual activities, making all such activities with a person below that age illegal. Above that age, humans are considered to be able to understand the consequences of their actions, give informed consent, and be unlikely to be harmed by such encounters. For cases that fall outside of these limitations, separate laws often exist that punish taking advantage of those mentally unable to give informed consent.

As such, the first considerations would be if a robot can consent to actions or be harmed by it. Consent of robots is an almost philosophical point as that could likely be programmed into them. It is unlikely that one would intentionally create a robot that would be irreparably harmed/scarred by sexual activities, but not impossible. As machine intelligence can potentially be very varied, you can not easily define a time since creation at which it would not be harmed. If this assumption holds, pedophilia is functionally inapplicable to machine intelligences.
However, performing sexual acts with machine intelligences that would be harmed by the encounter should likely be illegal, unrelated to their age. It probably shouldn't be okay to create robots with a child-like mentality that emotionally suffer from abuse, even if you leave them in a warehouse for 18 years beforehand.

Legal loli for the dwarf and based on date of creation the phrase cradle snatcher (literal) for Mei. :ROFLMAO:

a few LN volumes later and Hiro hasn’t laid a hand on the dwarves. As he himself said, Mei is his ideal.

Oh don't worry, it tak stime but eventually those 2 manage to wear down his defenses xD

Also they are cute with how they interact with Hiro.

Well, we all knew they'd be joining the crew (even if they are not official crew members). If things go as it did with the other girls its just a matter of time before they both become lovers as well.

Wow, despite MC's aversion, they keep trying to push these lolis into his harem.

Honestly I don't like them because they don't listen. They kept messing up despite MC's warning.

I'm more concerned about those two being annoying than them being lolis. Like, she just got scolded and she's doing the same shit 2 minutes later...
Their bodies aside, they are like middle age gold-digger alcoholic girl failures. No redeeming qualities in sight. I don't like them and I wouldn't like them even if their physical appearance would match their mental image.
Yeah, personality-wise, Tina is a pain and I am not a fan of the prospect of them joining.

And if I'm being honest, I was hoping they wouldn't become part of the harem. Lots of loli characters in manga anyway, the MC was constantly saying how uncomfortable they made him, and his characterization suffered for it.

You're basically right.

Considering what the space pirates are known to do... they absolutely would create an android with a child's mind for the sake of doing unspeakable acts to it. That's not even in the top 10 of horrible things they would do to a person.

In the novels they are a bit bigger
Imo the manga did their appearance closer to how they were described in the novels, 'middle school like kids'.
The novels make them look more true dwarven midgets who's heights were barely past Hiro's waist.

Just had to force in lolis huh...
Sigh, even a grumpy elder dwarf who would be a bit of a tsundere would've been a way more entertaining character and even better if he/she would've dropped old wisdom in the storys' long run...
But it just HAD to be lolies... Fuck off man :(
I mean they aren't lolis, they don't act nor get treated like children, they are just short and a little dumb for ecchi plot reason but not enough for you to confuse them with children

Bratty, opportunistic and clearly troublesome... I love Tina already!

Also is it just me or did Hiro blow this whole launch-your-sister-on-me completely out of proportion, including the booty call. I mean I have seen anime or manga where they didn't even bat an eye with worse incidents than what happened with them.
