Re: Characters who don't look (or act) their age

I know this will apply to like most shounen anime but the first thing that comes to mind is Gundam Wing.

I could not fucking believe Zechs and Noin were only 19. And iirc, Treize, the president dude, was like 24, and he was portrayed as old and worldly. Fucking unbelievable.

The other weird thing is that the kids themselves, the Gundam boys, were 15 - and considering all they did, that did feel unrealistic and all. But they didn't look 15, they looked like, 11. Japanese anime has this really weird habit of making characters in their early-to-mid-teens HALF THE HEIGHT of grown-ups. The pilots, compared to the "adult" characters (cough, the 19-year-old adults) were TINY. Like dude, a 15-year-old boy can be just as tall or even taller than an adult man. But that's an anime stylistic thing in general that annoys me.
