yeahh i feel you, I don’t think it’s hard to draw an adult male with delicate features without him looking like a child.
Exactly. I've seen many small and petite bottoms in BL manhwas who don't look like children, and we even have short and small men in real life. But this character's body sometimes just doesn't look like a petite, mature adult body to me, especially when he's naked. For example, in chapter 34, his legs looked way too small compared to the top's physique.
You're right about the child-like part being creepy and all but i feel like him looking alot younger could be tied to the fact that he's malnourished and literally grew up eating grass. I mean, it would make sense for him to look shorter and thinner than his peers. (Think about Levi from attack on titan!!! He's very short and his body looks younger than he is. The only difference is that he's alot more experienced and active physical wise)
Nope not the only one he barely looks like a teenager imo and it's really disturbing...side eyeing those who finds it hot
Am I the only one who feels uncomfortable with the bottom's very small and childlike build(especially in sexual scenes)?
I’ve read the novel, and even the author described the bottom as having broad shoulders and a mature body, just with delicate facial features and that he is just small next to the top. I feel like, aside from his face, the way the bottom is drawn in the manhwa doesn’t really match the author’s descriptions of him in the novel.
I have no problem with bottoms who are small or petite, but his body size(especially in chapter 34)gives me the impression of someone under 18 or a teenager, even though the bottom is 20 years old and an adult.
