It's post time! A lot of the time, popular anime series will end up having one popular character, or a few popular characters. This is common, and usually the character will be the main subject of advertising to draw more fans in. However, I think it's really odd when this character is a child. I don't mean childish or child-like characters, I mean children. It's really weird seeing grown adults fan over a young character. This already happened with Kanna from Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid, who is considered a child regardless of her technical age. But it's happening again with Anya Forger from Spy X Family. I can understand that some people may find them cute in the normal cute child way. But not all people are obsessing over them for this reason. It also gives mixed signals to people who aren't fans. For example, I haven't watched Spy X Family yet, but for a while I thought Anya was the one and only main character because she was everywhere for a long time. She's still extremely popular, as well. I may be overthinking it, but it's always felt weird when fans decide a child is the most popular character; especially in a series that features mostly adults. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I just wanted to talk about this because I've seen Anya popping up a lot more often again. It bothers me because she's a very young character, and the majority of her fans are adults. Regardless of my opinions on the matter, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
