Obliviously shipping Naofumi and Raphtalia without realizing she's still a loli.

That’s a bad example. Raphtalia only acted like a kid for the sake of certain gags, but acted very mature at key dramatic story moments which sets the more dominant tone for her. If a character is drawn and written to be mature, they aren’t a loli regardless of what’s listed on their character sheet. It’s the reverse of the 500 year old vampire loli trope.

So..... She gets groomed, isnt she..?

According to spoilers, its the other way around. But also, its a complete misuse of the term either way.

I’m not trying to defend actual predators but I would like the logistics of this. First of all he say more than ten years, going from midieval standard he’s anywhere from 15 to 19, while she looks about 8 to 10 years. A nine year gap (at most) is definitely weird, but there have been worse in manga. And secondly, yes he is technically “grooming” her, but it’s him teaching her how to use her powers and nothing else.

I mean loli under shower is a anime "classic" the thief who brought a slave girl home and that anime movie about chunibyu girl also had a loli under shower to name a few (tho in thief and here it's like prepubescent loli and in the movie it was highschool or middle school loli) but yeah shower scenes are easy and kind of cheap way to show something wrong with a women (

Spoiler

it was also used like that in Zegapain to show a detail about one of the female cast

.

Im not opposed to shower scenes. In fact I like em. Alot. Especially when used as a way to silently inform the audience about the characters past.
(example: if she has a magical tattoo or an identifying birthmark revealing that shes the long lost child hood friend. Or scars hinting to an abusive past)

Its just this one seemed suggestive in a way. Given that's a kid, I no likey. It could have been shorter or drawn differently and still manage to get the point across.
