Ah, I see... I thought she was a loli, but she was actually just a billion years old woman who was cursed to forever look like a little girl. Sorry, my mistake.

Have you ever made some dumb mistake when talking about anime, and just revealed how misinformed you actually are?

Enjoy in thread.

There's definitely been some I've misjudged. If it's in a fantasy anime they could be any age, though. You have characters like Filo from Shield Hero or Vanilla and Chocola from Nekopara who are under a year old and you also have characters like the 7000 year old Kanna from Maid Dragon or the 10 million+ year old Muromi-san who all look in the same ballpark age wise.

It's actually weirder in non-fantasy stuff, like the mom from Masamune-kun or the older sister from Kashiwagi-san. Just because it's set in a world without magic doesn't mean it's safe to assume ages.

Well, if she looks like a loli, she is a loli.
If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time.

Watch more movies, please.

Wait, what? Is that really a thing? I mean do people even know where the term loli comes from? It's got nothing to do with looks and everything to do with age. I used to date a chick in her early twenties that would have been beyond pissed if somebody called her a loli just because she was petite and looked five years younger than she was.

For me, their personality and behavior make a pretty big difference.

Like Shinobu from Monogatari acts more like someone who is 500+ years old, there is a maturity about her, so I buy it, and it doesn't really bother me at all, even with fanservicey momens, I don't see her as a kid, but as an adult. But someone like Kanna, despite being 1000s of years old, still acts like a preschooler, so it's much weirder and more uncomfortable.

No.. I remember some of the things from every single anime I've watched..
I may get the spelling wrong but I don't think I would embarrass myself like that...
