Probably because in Japan 16 is a legal age for female to get married, so author was like "hell yeah 16? This gurl is gettin a considerate daddy now" ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Idk man, it’s just if you were going to make a massive age gap anyways and it’s not some 16 - 18 yrs it’s freshly 16 - 60 yrs. Out of ALL the possibilities of the numbers they could’ve picked. I mean when it comes to fiction I really don’t care imma be honest, but 16 and 60 plus they had sex. Mans on a THIN LINE.
The author is "probably" trying something different but not rlly. Large age gap is not uncommon in mangas. Take for example if the man is hundred years old vampire n the fl is 16. Guess it's the same like that. It's fantasy, could be that author wanted to insert that old-ripen-gentleman fantasy in. N as long as the ml looks young in the end, ages will be ignored. This one just happens to show ml being physically old n only in the beginning
I think she stayed at the earl Manor for quiet sometime , 2 or 3 years i Guess because the grandfather of her maid was surprised by her growth when he Saw her again after sending her to the earl Manor so i Guess she is over 18 now so yea no illégal stuff even though for that Time 16 was the âge for them to be considered adults you're aware thats it's a different Era right 16 years old back then arent treated Like kids Like now
No she’s 16, it’s stated first chapter, however when she came to the world it was 2yrs ago so at age 14. And then the grandpa was surprised because she was finally getting treated well and her body become more shapely thus looking more like a woman. If we talking about the timeline/era I definitely understand that, but then it’s kinda also like then did they have to make him 60, 35-40 would’ve still been relatively ok because that’s still more than double her age. If it weren’t for the fact they made him a dilf (energy) and they de-aged him. THIN ICE.
Bro, they definitely didn’t have to pick peak 16 years of age. I don’t understand why they couldn’t say 18? The age difference in the beginning would have still been HUGE anyways. But regardless on that, the ML is extremely sweet. Honestly it would’ve been even better had the MC been of age and the ML be around late 30’s idk would’ve kept that spice and concept of a fine aged man. Without being too extreme (60yrs).
