| Hell's Paradise is a series that has a solid start. The MC of this show is about 16 and his wife married before the age of 18. By that definition, it falls under the term "Child marriage". This is something that I don't notice in a lot of battle shonen where MC is married at a young age. In the first episode, we notice that the father of Gabimaru's wife who is a big jerk basically burns her daughter's face with a heated iron rod at the right eye and it is fucked up childhood for a young girl. Then, the father doesn't like his daughter a peaceful and normal life. It is implied that she was forced to marry the MC out of obligation by her father. This is just an implication and I'm not stating these statements as facts. I would like to know whether the manga or the source material covers this topic in a detailed way or if is it just shrugged off completely and later has no relevance to the plot. My questions are: Do Gabimaru and Yui marry each other out of genuine love? or Is it just forced by her father? Maybe, I could be focusing on the wrong things, and it's pretty good to have a discussion about this topic. |
| marriage had been arranged but eventually they grew to love each other with all of their flaws also, it's fantasy/supernatural story with historical setting, so their age is not as astounding as it would be for an anime set in modern times |
| You are putting modern standards to a complete different time period. That is fallacious. It is a time period, where life is cheap, might makes right and as such life expectancy was quite low, so people were marrying early. |

| During the time period, you were pretty much not considered a child after puberty. Childhood ending at a set age is a relatively recent trend, historically speaking. And yes, it was almost certainly an arranged marriage, again, as was normal for the era. |

| From what I have seen, they probably came to love each other eventually. |

| It’s not child marriage if they’re not considered children… in times as such kids who were going through puberty or more specifically kids who’d gotten their pubes, weren’t really considered children anymore. |

Seeing Mushoku Tensei in that light is pretty foolish as the story and setting of the series are completely different. What you're implying here makes no logical sense unless you're implying something more controversial. |
| lol this generation of kids are so cooked thanks to western politics |
| 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 |
| To toxic fans: Atleast wait for an anime season to end before you go on tantrum. |
| this takes place in the Edo period. this was not uncommon whatsoever then. I appreciate being historically aware vs changing it for the sake of modern day ethics |

So y'all can accept history but when an author tries to create an entire world out of his creativity y'all diss on it for being pedo content? |
Sagenaker11 said: except in hells paradise the MC isn't trying to sexually assault 12y/o. The wife feels like atleast 16y/o which is totally fine considering the era and not to mention gabimaru doesn't look like a lusty beast while looking at minors I don't think we saw the same show then. Rudeus never SAd any of the female characters. And as far as I remember there was no child marriage either. It's already been stated that 15 was the coming of age in Mushoku Tensei world and it's stupid to compare that to our world which has totally different systems and even biology probably |

I think it's acceptable because he didn't force himself at all. Heck even with his horny ass previous life he refused to do so at first and made sure Eris was in her senses |
| wait the MC is supposed to be 16??? how has that guy managed to find enough time to become a highly acclaimed assasian and grow a loving relationship with his wife in such short time. His real superpower is time managment holy hell |

A redemption story for a pedophile? What's so creative about it if the writing is shit to begin with. |
| why is this even a discussion |

If someone underwent that trauma in high school 80% of the people wouldn't try to restart their lives again. It's a redemption story from the lowest point of a person's life after he's gifted with a chance to redo it all afresh. The fact guy called it bad writing shows that you're blinded by your hate |

I get that the series is about redemption. From what I've seen, however, the redemption part of the narrative is weak when one's self doesn't change at all. Rudeus is still the same as before. I guess what's considered redemption is different from yours to mine. |

His redemption was quite progressive and if you didn't see that maybe we watched different shows |
| Gabimaru's 16? Well... What good is they actually already married... Some of underage girls in those era are already becoming a prostitute... Just look at Daki's from Demon Slayer... it's a normal life for those eras. It was obviously a forced marriage... But they actually develop a real love after the marriage. |
