Rly been enjoying this manga, just dont understand why the author made him 15.. 17 for a manga woulda been totally fine. Only way i can see why is maybe theres gonna be a timeskip at some point. At the end of the day he looks mature enough and its fictional so i dont actually care too much, also makes more sense on why shes so against dating him ig.

i think we REALLY gotta understand that the age of consent in japan is 16; so this kind of stuff is insanely normal in japan. but i do think that the guy shouldve been 17 nonetheless

just saying tho, it's not that weird if you look at japan's laws bruh

Well, she's kind of being reasonable at least.

Technically the age of consent in most of the US is also 16, and I don't think any country has laws against age gap dating as long as nothing sexual happens. Even with those, the reason it's looked down upon is for social/moral reasons, not legal ones.

But age difference doesn't change, no matter how old they get?
Yeah but it's not the same. A 21yo dating a 14 or 15yo (I forgot how old is the MC) is weird and bad but having that age difference as adults (20+) is fine.

Even though I still found the 5 years gap a bit too high, he is pretty mature for his age while she is more childish, so mentally they seem more equal at least and I don’t feel the gap too much while reading (same thing with the other couple) so I don’t feel too bothered by it.

if she were the mature one and him childish or if they just had their age reversed it would be way more problematic to me.
