She was 5/6 when she moved Into the house with Keiya and her grandfather. But you can't control who you fall for. You can either hide your feelings or act upon them. In these case it's legal over there in Japan. All I'm saying is there is consent in this non-fiction shojou.
A lot of people are bothered by age gap because there's naturally a power imbalance between a minor and adult, so consent is always an issue. As an adult, I just don't ever see myself liking a minor in a romantical sense, because I see them as a child or you know, a younger sibling. idk...This manga in particular i think is ambiguous, since I think the girl is 15 years old? she just started high school. He was already 15/16 when she was just born... but he respects her boundaries and hasn't really crossed it so... idk. lol. I personally don't mind age gaps if both individuals are adults. I just don't think that it's ok to normalize a relationship w/ a minor and adult, since a lot of teenagers would romanticize it and think that's okay, and maybe even intentionally seek that type of relationship. So this becomes dangerous for the minor.
