That just made sence of the whole situation im now hopeing they at least wait untill adulthood for romance.
I keep forgetting he a basically a grown man since he in the body of a child. It like the age of concent isnt really abojt physically differances but the mental development thats why statutory rape exist. (⊙…⊙ )

Yes
Its doesn't matter what his body looks like. So what if his body is their age. His mental age which is his true age is that of an old man
No matter how mature the mind of a 13 year old is it will never be ok for an old person to sleep with them and no matter how childish a grown man is it will never be ok for them to sleep with a child
And he didn't seem to care about romance in all his previous years of living so I don't get why he should now though
Regarding the situation with Tess I don't really care what the author ends up doing but if I were to throw my two cents in I'd say...
It is very important to add his past years
Whether it was in that body or not he has lived those years he had no pause in his timeline nor did he slowly remember his past instead it flowed in continuation like any normal next day he closed his eyes and opened them again to him what felt like immediately to see himselfin a baby's body. If I'm 43 and I sleep and wake up a 12 year old it will never change the fact that I know I'm actually 43
The reason an 18 year old can know he/she is 18 is cause they have been alive for 18 years and have the memories and experience to back it up
The reason a 40 year old cannot kiss a 12 year old is because they have been alive for 40 years and have the experiences, memories and years under their belt and know its wrong
So whether it was in that body or not, no one can take away the (I'm assuming) 40+years he has lived those years can never be minused from his life because he has lived them
So yes I do believe he is just an old man in a child's body and it would be morally wrong for him to be kissing children (=・ω・=)
