Okay I did say that I really appreciate they made a tall heroine that was actually tall, but 180cm/5'10" is not THAT tall. That's the same height as most dudes in manga. Unless they also made the rest of the heights realistic too. In that case, cool

Edit: I'm specifically talking about the part where she stands out in a crowd. Like, at the very least, she'll stand at the same height as some people

It's a Japanese thing. I guess they're just a lot shorter over there?

If you check character bios for various media in Japan, games included, you'll find that most of them tend to be on the shorter side from a Western perspective.

I've only seen one piece of media that uses "tall" in the Western sense with a girl that was 6'7"/200cm.

True, but you're ignoring the statistical fact that she's significantly taller than the average Japanese high school girl.
Apples to apples, and all that.

Plot Twist: It's the same dude, dying his hair different colors, as he three-times.
Plot Twist Twistier: It's the same girl, dying her hair different colors, from a multicultural background, unbeknownst to the dude.
