It's a forced Vtuber meme, though, so we all know what the real deal with that is.
Honestly did people learn nothing from CNN flipping shit over "its ok to be white" signs????
Flipping out INCREASES the meme. And this has been 30 pages of people getting butt-hurt over the meme.
That is what the word originally meant.
Perhaps I wasn't clear enough, I was asking if you view something as a loli if it has JUST big eyes, since you say apparent physical maturity / stated age together isn't good enough??. I mean you focus so much on the eyes, far more than if a picture IS sexual. And I'm pretty fucking sure loli didn't originally mean "big eyed girl".
The presence of children doesn't make a show pedophilic. If anime didn't want to be pedo bait, they would change up the character styles.
It would help if this was better fucking defined. Like this is all vague af "her eyes are too big" which somehow makes SOME pedophilic, and some not, and if this style is put on CLEARLY fully grown women its...presumably also pedophilic? Like ill even give you the benefit of the doubt that PERHAPS some animators know exactly what they are doing making young girls drawn in a specific way to "appeal" and perhaps you could blame individual animators, but industry wide I'd kinda just chalk it up to weebery, its so damn prolific I bet its used to some degree without conscious knowledge of what you are talking about, just something so widely adapted and used that its second nature? But for consumers especially, This feels fucking whack to worry about, like what, a clean anime 10 hours in has a woman with eyes too big, so now you have to abandon it or be a pedo?
Like I get what you are on (I THINK???) with eyes being bigger being childlike, but also


Both charecters are female. One IS definitively underage. Who has the bigger eyes? Oh shit its the of age woman. Does this mean people who find her hot are pedophiles??? she DOES have big eyes.
This is why this thinking is like, halfway in higher level thinking that MAYBE has some interesting things being noticed, but the other half is PURE fucking autism on tier with monty python "if the witch weights more than a duck, shes made of wood" type thinking. It reminds me of someone squarely around like 90IQ just BARELY understanding a concept on a basic level but fucking it up HORRIBLY because their mind can understand a concept they can barely grasp, but NONE of the nuances of it.
Of course making stuff look like they have bigger eyes doesn't necessarily make it loli porn. This is a deliberately stupid, extreme interpretation
I would shut it down altogether
I'm not a hater of anime that much to want to eliminate it but I think this is at least tolerable because its more honest. "I hate weebs, fuck anime" comes off a lot less stupid than "big eyes mean you want to molest children".
Anyway since this has devolved into memes I'm posting the best watermelon meme.
