3, 2, 1, post time! For today's blog post, I will be talking about Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid. More specifically, I'll be defending the characters from Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid. This anime is one of the ones that gets criticized for the young-looking characters who are secretly hundreds of years old. However, this criticism usually comes from people who don't even know anything about the series. They just see a childish character who's secretly very old and they think it's inappropriate. But as a fan of the series, I know that this is ridiculous. Yes, some of the dragons look young. But that's because they are young! They look and act their age, and they're always paired up with people who are equivalent to their age. They look like children because they are children; they just age slowly. To complain about a child character being a child is really weird. Just because they've lived hundreds of years, it doesn't mean they age the same way a human does. A good example of this is Klee from Genshin Impact. Klee comes from a race that ages very slowly, so she's still a child. So why is it alright for that character but not other characters? Context matters, especially for inhuman characters. If they look like a child, act like a child, and are treated like a child by others, then they are a child. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I just wanted to talk about this because it's still a complaint to this day. Of course Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid isn't perfect, but at least do some basic research and criticize it for a good reason. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
