People are people
Clothes are clothes
Fan service is fan service

Almost as good as the character named “Eiai Nano” from Hyakkano, who isn’t actually a robot, but pretty much acts like one all the time

If I seemed combative, I apologize. I appreciate you engaging in good faith. It is a rarer and rarer sight to see on social media.
Ok, so your problem is with people likening ANY anime with children to pedos specifically as opposed to anime with actually sexually suggestive content involving children?
Yes. I see this sentiment a lot and the sheer stupidity of it exasperates me to no end. Not only does it seem to me like it’s a position that arises from people unable to differentiate between fiction and reality, it also irritates me because it actually diminishes the severity of child sexual abuse IRL.

I’m not talking about any of this, I’m talking about a very narrow scope here that you even quoted at the top of your comment.

Any site that bans an anime because of the girls’ ages in the show is full of hypocrisy. They pick and choose which shows and girls are inappropriate and aren’t consistent about it. Especially when they allow sexy shows based on real children (Cuties).
I think they’re doing a major disservice to actual victims by comparing them to cartoons. (emphasis mine)
Hot take: people who get upset over young characters in anime and compare it to pedophilia are actually the fucking worst. They don’t actually care about real children or real victims of real sexual abuse, they only want to ride their high horse on a bullshit tide of false self-righteousness. Their sense of indignant justice and ego is inflated further by not only looking down on the concept as a whole, but also associating all anime fans with it, and thus looking down on them too.
