I find it wholesome that she's taller than him.

I never put any thought into it if I prefer someone taller or shorter than me. After I have, I still don't have a preference.

I usually don't care about it, but in anime it's often too exaggerated and gives off pedophile vibes XD

valid ( and their in middle school , but I think the reason people love it is because it captures the rush of emotions and such )

Height does not matter in a relationship.
The guy being shorter is almost nonexistant irl, but that does not matter especially in fiction.

I don’t mind it. Canonically she just had her growth spurt first, which makes sense.

he might end up a whole foot taller than her for all you know... I, for instance, went from 5 nothing when I was 14 to 6 4 right now. I was the littlest mf in my grade. granted I'm not asian, but both my mom and dad and even my elder brother are all below 5 9, and just my grandpa was 6 1.

there might be a chad gene hiding somewhere in his dna. By which I mean, there clearly is.

Literally gap moe.

I'm 190 cm myself so it is very weird to see a woman near my height. I'm more than a head taller than Anna-chan I think.

How tall is her dad?

At that age it really doesn’t matter, and can easily change. But in this anime it makes the relationship so cute, she’s almost mothering him at times. Just a great dynamic.

I think it is a lot cuter when the guy is shorter. This might end up like fma though ending the mc as the normal tall guy despite being a manlet at the start. The mangaka is female so I am curious to see how tall they will write the mc. Lol

This kind of reminds me of Rex from XC2.
The manlet design appealed to guys.
The future design appealed to women making him tall.

Makes sense they shift him from shota to chad.
Shota to average guy would be more surprising route.

At their age, it's totally normal. She is on the taller side for a woman, but usually girls hit their growth spurt before guys so for people in a relationship at that age it's not that unlikely for the girl to be taller. They'll probably be around the same height when they're both adults.

I do find it kind of hot when women are around my height or taller. I'm around Anna's height.

it's a bit unusual, when the girl is taller than the guy (I mean in romance anime like this). it's very cute, and tbh, the difference doesn't matter (like it should be in real life). oh and preference in real life ? short girls are cute, but tbh, I don't really care about the height. I just want someone to love me 😭😭😭 (I really should stop watching romance anime)

It does really matter but since they’re in middle school the guy is still growing and they could change to be more similar in height

I prefer shorter girls, but it's surprising that Bokuyaba is the only romance anime (until now for me) where the main couple's height gap is reversed.

I think is a plot point for a future payoff, like the end of the manga, something like the circumstances separate them for a while and when they see each other again he had his growth spurt and is a little taller than her.

I'm not a very tall guy myself at 167cm , so it's a little hard to find guys shorter than me. But I still preffer guys my around height or shorter. I don't like having to look up.

I don't mind, it's quite fitting for this series and its themes. Ichikawa will likely end up taller than Yamada when they're fully grown though.

Given their ages, it's a pretty valid height difference and one that may diminish over time as it's likely that Anna has stopped growing or has very little growth left, while Kyotaro still has many years to keep growing.

Besides that, it's actually kinda cute seeing that gap in their heights.

Where's the "same height" option? Shorter girl is better I guess, but I don't really care. I don't really see the point of a poll that combines 2 different questions.

I stopped growing at his age at just over 6 foot. I don't think I've met a good looking woman taller than me so I don't know if I'd feel insecure.

I prefer taller girls but I'm also around 185cm so I'll still be taller than most girls.

imo anything goes.
Here it does make sense the girl is taller than most of her classmates, since she is a model.

The point is to see both height and gender preference. As expected short guys are losing by a landslide.

As a short fella in the past, I was surrounded by taller girls. that changed after turning 15. These height differences aren't that odd at their age. The gap might lessen as the story moves forward.

Boys who can't stand tall women is because they can't handle them. He's THE MAN. He knows he can handle anything and more.
