If it's really him I might drop this tbh. I'm tired of all the older ukes that both look and act way younger than the semes, and meanwhile the semes look and act like they're near 30 but are meant to 22 or something. It really takes me out of the moment. It's kinda hard to believe he's older when if everything about him suggests he's an innocent teenager.

Glad I'm not the only one, whenever I comment about it I get a lot of shit. Of course, I don't mind which one of them is older, but their ages should be at least somewhat believable. I noticed a recent increase in this trend recently, especially on korean comics for whatever reason, can't say I'm a fan.

It just getting annoying to me honestly.
I dont know if its some sort of thing now a days where the bottom is older.
But I dont always have an issue but if thats what I'm only finding it gets annoying.
And as someone who would never be with someone who is younger. I would like to be able to enjoy reading some older top. And like you've mentioned these bottoms be looking like 20 year olds and the tops like 25 year olds to find out they reversed.
I'm glad I'm not the only one feeling this way!

Like I said, I don't mind which one is younger, and I'm not talking about real life realtionships. I'm just bothered when, in fiction, neither of them act or even look like their age - the supposedly older uke feels more like an innocent teenager, and the seme feels like he should be pushing 30, in both appearance and behaviour, heck even his job position, but it turns out he's barely early twenties. I know there are tons of other things to pick appart about the story that could also be called unrealistic, but this one in particular bothers me. I've noticed it a lot lately (particularly on korean comics for some reason), if I've only seen it once or twice I wouldn't mind, but since it's so common it gets tiring.

Its none of my business who gets with who.
But that's not my cup of tea.
Not that I would shame people for being with someone younger but its not something I would personally do.
Like if you enjoyed being with the dude that's a good thing.
I rather see a person happy regardless of age.
But again I personally just wouldn't feel comfortable doing that
Has it been stated which one of them is older? (I'm a filthy speedreader and I skip most of the boring dialogue, sorry).
