I remember back in the 1990s, using school PCs to download NGE pictures in class when the teacher wasn't looking, thinking it wouldn't really get me into trouble since it wasn't porn and the girls were fully dressed. They were official promotional art for the show that I was viewing; certainly nothing people in Japan would have considered inappropriate for a public billboard.
Later (and older) I considered, how they're "fully dressed" in absolutely skin-tight fictional suits that show every curve these 14 year old girls' bodies have, and how perhaps watching a lot of Japanese anime (not as common or mainstream then as it is now) may have desensitized me to how an authority figure in my own culture would view it.
...Probably for the best I didn't get caught at it then. Teachers aside, peer judgement would not have been kind.
Was there one of those in Dungeon Meshii yet? I'm trying to remember. Waiting a week for new episodes feels so 1980s now. I don't think my brain is accustomed to holding small details for this long anymore.
Well, I'd say she's post-pubescent, just small-chested, but anime makes for an exaggeratedly childish face on purpose. Doesn't help that Neoteny is common in Japanese people to begin with; their baseline is skewed that way.
Truthfully I find the AI generated ones of the blond girl with the much more REALISTIC 10-year-old face, that someone keeps uploading here more disturbing.

If not for the camel toe, this could have been production art for the show or movies.
I don't see how this cosplay could have been any better, without a to-scale accurate dragon body to be attached to... and that's asking quite a lot.
People who downvoted... how come? I'm genuinely mystified why you would.
Yup. By the Boruto series, she should be in her 70s.
Well no, it isn't.

Somebody reeeeeaaly wants... make that NEEDS, to be paid. You better tip 100% of the bill.
