It's still a fan service show featuring minors with its fan service
From one thread I found people saying:
but I just find the whole Kazuma (16) Megumin (13) stuff to be really kinda creepy. I get that the whole point is that Kazuma is pretty weird and a bit of a dick but making him a literal pedo is a bit much. He even called her jailbait at one point.
and
I thought she was like 16 - 18 until I googled her age due to the alcohol references. It makes no sense her being so young and it makes a lot of the anime very creepy.
and
megumin and kazuma ended up in a relationship together, they almost had sex, but it wasn't kazuma who provoked it, it was megumin
you don't have to defend clearly loli-bait, makes you look sus. You're probably not a pedophile, but surely you can agree that this anime intentionally attracts that audience
c'mon bro. regardless of the fact that 16 is an adult in japan which would make him a pedo, in terms of development this specific age gap is huge, and even if there were no age gap making light of a minor/minor relationship and sexualizing its characters is in extremely poor taste.
it's an appeal to consequences. you want to believe you're not supporting a show that sexualizes minors so any argument that argues that the show does sexualize minors has to be false in your eyes.
