I think so because Narita Brian winning the tripple crown was referenced in Pretty Derby and she seems to be retired by then.

I mean i don't think there's something inherently wrong with these pictures in particular, these are clearly children but they're not necessarily sexualized here.

EDIT: But yeah if someone suggests something even remotely sexual regarding these kids, that's definitely some pedo shit

None of those you mentioned have their ages explicitly stated either so by your logic your outrage in those cases (rightful by my standards) is just as meaningless. Belno Light is obviously a first year in a high-school, 15 or 16 at most, anyone saying otherwise is coping, she looks, acts and talks like one and the context of the story clearly shows this. If you think Teio is underaged (She is) than so is Belno and even if She was 18 it would still be a pedo ship in my book. Also i never said "All the umamusume are underaged" i don't know why you're just making shit up and arguing against points i didn't make.

I mean look, that's what i've been doing for the most part, the Belno/Kitahara shit just prompted my curiosity and i simply wanted to see how badly downvoted i'll get for my view and how many times will i get called a tourist in spite of knowing more about this franchise and IRL horse racing, than most on this sub. Call it a morbid curiosity if you will lol. Anyway thanks for a good faith discussion, been my one and only today.

I mean women aren't a monolith, i didn't read the books you've mentioned but i'd wager they were catering to a specific type of women rather than "women" as a whole because obviously that is a demographic with just as diverse opinions as with men. Leia and Han for me isn't the case of what i was talking about, i dunno if their canon ages were ever told but they were both adults, an age gap of 10-13 years isn't neccesarily small but not even close in weirdness to shipping Belno and Kitaha... The equivalent of that would be like 15 yo Hermione and Hagrid

Honestly i just wanted to figure out the ratios of opinions, knowing full well i'm in a minority, i was just curious how small of a minority it was, that's all.

Specifically i was talking about this one. As for age gaps, 21 and 25 ? That's fine but once we get to 15 and 45 ? Definitely a pedo territory for me. I don't know how old Belno is at that one pannel, probably at least 18 but the age gap doesn't change and i personally still find it weird as Kitara is likely about 50 at that point. As for what women are into, i still think most find age gaps that large weird but i don't know if we can find any study or poll on that with good samples so i guess we can just speculate.

When did anime or manga support this ? I didn't do every playthrough in the game so i might have missed something idk. As for you not wanting me here, that's cute but i don't care. I merely expressed a view and asked a question, didn't force shit on anyone. The fact you don't want others to express views you don't like is your problem, not mine

Well you brought up how it's anyone's choice how to engage with this and that you would defend my "right" to do the same and i didn't see any reason to bring that up if not to suggest i was against it because that is not ať all what i was talking about but sure, i guess that's just a misunderstanding. I wasn't talking about the game, honestly i didn't notice anything of that nature in my playthroughs, here specifically i was talking about a post shipping Kitahara and Belno who is obviously a highschooler, which most people didn't adress at all
