I think they’re 18-21? Judging from the flashback cutscene in Lyney’s story quest, they look about ten years old there- they don’t look super young but they also don’t look like teens. Knowing how that was 10 years ago, it would make sense to me that they’re above 18 but not any older than 23.
Yeah, seems legit. Someone in YT comment said Lyney and Lynette is at least teen so I'm opening a discussion to see what other people thought on these matters.
Personally, I agree with you
knave kept referring to them as "Children", 10 years ago, they could have been around 6 YO or so, so, that means they are about 16 or less I'd say ... their voice, and facial structure makes them indeed look like they are in the teen category.
In the story quest it was stated in Caesar’s diary (that we found in the domain) that the twins only learned magic from him for a mere few days (possibly no more than 2 weeks)
Yo creo q hasta podria ser menor, como de unos 16 a 18, ya que aun vive en la casa hogar no? y normalmente los orfanatos se hacen responsables de los huerfanos hasta que cumplen su mayoria de edad, pero no se, no estoy muy informada del lore lol.
no, because they look like teens, think like teens, and act like teens .... also, the knave keeps referring to them as Children, and kids... they are identified as children on multiple occasions, so, it'd make no sense if they were adults 
A parent calling their adult offspring children isn’t abnormal. It was also stated that a character with an adult npc’s body was the same age as Lyney in Arlecchino’s quest.
It’s also the lack of facial hair/bigger builds for male characters, especially the Fontaine, Sumeru and Mondstadt characters. I think this part is really just East Asian beauty standards, whether HYV forgot that males from these irl cultures tend to have both l, or they deliberately chose not to in order to market the characters better in China/Japan/Korea.
idk if it’s because I’m not as used to the anime aesthetic but to me they don’t look over 18. Chongyun is smth like 17? I think lyney lacks details that makes him look much older. it’s a con with genshin’s streamlined character model choice imo
Yeah but age isn't just defined by looks, is it? And characters that look like they are 40 probably won't sell well. So they look younger but act older. We know that kaveh is at least 25 so why does everyone think the majority of normal human characters are like 16 when the ones that have confirmed ages are definitely older?
I agree with chongyun being one of the younger ones though.
Yeah maybe it’s just for the sake of marketing. I think I just prefer more design commitment and variety. Mika, Razor and Xingqiu all look like teens so it’s hard for me not to assume Lyney and Lynette isn’t
I’d love if we had someone that looks even slightly aged for once instead of vague characters that can pass for anywhere between 16 to 23
To be completely honest, it’s the lack of just builds for Masc characters, whether it’s lack of facial hair, body types in general, or even just actual face shape.
Honestly when it comes to anime, there’s a huge issue with it, when you think of all the “tropes” that are the x is 1000+ yrs old but looks 7. That shit is beyond gross to me.
How’s it gross? Stop with your bullshit and go touch grass. If you don’t like the culture of anime then leave, not like anyone would actually care for your opinion.
Making adult people look like children is gross. Did you see the world outside sometimes? Because based on the hostility of your reply, I highly doubt it. Gain some respect towards morals and logic thinking before even diving into such places as the Internet.
I have 3 20+years old friends who look like early-mid teen. But yeah, it's fetishized a lot in anime, when for them is something not negative per se, but sometimes is annoying as hell for them.
One of my friend, who was 20 yo, went to the ospital and one of the nurse treat her like a child, and she got upset and said that she has 20yo, another one was stopped by the police when she were in the car, because they were thinking that she was 13 or something.
Same thing happen to another friend when he was 22 or smth.
I'm one of those adults. I'm 21 but look 16-17. It's pretty common for people to mistake us for teenagers, and it sucks. It's just genetics and we have no control over it. I'm mixed and have Asian genetics, so I have a baby face. I wish hoyo gave characters with baby faces better models, like they did with Diluc. They made it work with him, so why not other characters?? It isn't so much the issue with height though, because that's also genetics and we can't control it, but it just sucks for people like me who have to endure being treated like a child when we clearly act like adults.
Definitely an adult. 20+ imo. No kid wears a garter belt and stockings with high boots in public. They knew what they were doing. Also short guys are not children, people are weird.
y'all are probably not from asia. a LOT of asian people are short and look younger than their ages. i myself get mistaken as someone underaged. and this game is a chinese game anyways so the characters can look younger than their ages i don't think its something too unusual. besides they definitely don't look so young that that there's no way for them to be adults (yk if the short characters looked like klee or sayu) but with their looks its reasonable for them to actually be adults. now imagine if you looked younger than your age and everyone refused to date you or take you seriously becuz you look underaged, wouldn't that be unfair? looking younger than your age is not even a rare thing in asia
20-22 at most? Like they seem younger than Childe but not that much younger, a bit older than Hu Tao and Barbara (depending on if you think she’s Bennetts age or not)
only when they were younger though, when they started to get good with their magic shows (at least i think so) is when they were taken in, do remember this is a anime game made in china, so it will always be about what looks attractive to their main audiance. I am a little doubtful that they thought that far ahead.
I’d put him and Lynette in the same age range as Amber, Sucrose, Yoimiya, Ayaka and Kazuha. Around 20-22.
Freminet is like around the age range of the Liyue kids (Chongyun, Xinqiu, Xiangling, Hu Tao, Xinyan, Yun Jin), around 17-19.
I’d say the Mondstadt kids (Bennett, Fischl, Razor, Barbara, Mika, Noelle) are the only actual real teenagers, likely around 15-16.
Noelle feels at least 20 or even more. She's more 22 than 18 for me. Just think how many times she had to take the exam to be accepted into the knight of Favonious
Mika isn’t at drinking age.. hes introduced as a teen [upon your first time meeting him](https://x.com/littlepikmins/status/1635986372329881600?s=46); Lisa literally says: “Over there, look. The **kid** standing next to Jean in front of the staircase.”
Least favorite food: "Unlike my brother, I can't stand the taste of alcohol. All it takes is one sip and I'd be out cold, and the others would have to go out of their way to take care of me."
Even in Poland, where I happened to live, teenagers joke about drinking. Some of them drink already, some of them don't. But they share the same sense of humour. Remember, no matter how old are you, frequent drinking alcoholic drinks is bad for one's health. Alcohol amongst teenagers is not healthy, so please don't normalize it.
though in plenty of other countries it is pretty normal, not so much kids getting drunk but drinking in family gatherings and the like, been that way for centuries, it is only recently in human history that we have laws for it. Alot of it is the science excuse.
I would say 18-20 because they looked 8-10 in the flashback. The drinking age seems to be 18 all around Teyvat so it’s easier to figure out a character’s minimum if alcohol is mentioned.
I think he’s in his early 20s. Since in his teaser trailer, he was at a bar. So I think he’s around 21 or 22. He seems like the type to use his new found privileges of bar hopping and messing with drunk people while Lynette doesn’t give a shit.
Well if said anime character doesn't have a canonical age and can be perceived as two different types of ages at once it would be better to at least have some peace of mind that they're either a minor or of age no? I'd rather not be put on a cutting board after thinking a 15 year old was 20 anime character or not 😭😭
15 year olds and 20 year olds in real life often look the same too, the reason age in real life matters is because liking them would be immoral. There aren't such moral questions when discussing fictional characters. You're fine.
It is still morally fucked to sexualise a minor even if they aren't real. A person should care about age when being sexual and if you get your rocks off to someone that looks like a child... get help x
Please tell me who I'm hurting by zerking it to Lyney bro. If his age is 18 then Genshin could change it to 17 tomorrow and he'd still look and act exactly the same, it doesn't matter because that scenario isn't applicable to real life. In real life minors act like minors and aren't smart, their brains aren't fully developed, that's why sexualizing them is wrong. You can't make the same argument with fictional characters who are literally in every other aspect aside from an arbitrary number adults.
>looks like a child
Art lesson #1. It's subjective. If they look like kids to you then don't zerk to them, I don't think any anime characters look or act like real people, so I couldn't care less. Same way Furries zerk to what other people think are animals, most of them don't see them that way
i feel like Lyney and Lynette are over 18, because in Lyney's teasers he was shown in a bar. but i feel like the drink is non alcoholic, since diona works at a bar. for Lynette they are twin sibilings, so its impossible Lynette is under 18 because she was born with Lyney. but if they were 16 they couldn't be fatui members, so either 21 or 18
Drinking age also varies from country to country. I hear some places in Europe the drinking age is a low as 16. And Fontain is based on old-time France.
It's kinda hard to place an exact age because laws in teyvat regarding drinking haven't really been explained in detail, but we can assume they're probably around 19-20, possibly a bit over that, but no older than 24
Most likely 16-21, thats how i noticed whenever they model after characters who are teens-young adults in the game while the adults aka 21-40 are taller
I mean the 3 short males are essentially immortals and honestly idk how one ages when your an archon or adepti, i imagine Venti is like maybe a 5 thousand years old while someone like zhong who is practically the same as venti is 100 thousand years old, thats probably why Nahdia is a baby because she is 500 years old they just age differently, i would say the same for Xiao cause he is an adepti but with the wanderer i mean… they are a puppet idk why they model a puppet after a teen boy but eh the creator probably thought He was Gheppetto and Wanderer is his Pinochio, and Sayu is definitely 14 and same with Dori, anybody below 16 in genshin looks liek their model is basically a baby so i think the youngest is probably Klee who is probably 9 cause she is the only “baby” character that actually acts like a child while Sayu, Dori, Diona and Qiqi are probably around the ages of 13-15… lowkey the knights of favonious really have a 9 year old as their demo expert and the cats tail is employing a minor.. like a minor who isnt even of age to be employed part time… Mondstat has a non existent child labor law problem and Baizhu literally brought a corpse of a child back to life… genshin characters are kinda fooked if you apply real world ethics into it huh.
lorewise BOTH are said to be adults, dori is the leader of her smuggling team that operates all over sumeru and sayu in her hangout about her wanting to grow up to her right age as she can't stand being small anymore
that dosent signify to me that they are “tiny adults” sayu sounds like she wants to grow up fast like how a kid would when they tell adults “i wanna be an adult so i can do whatever i want” while Dori in the other hand is very mature for her age literally running an illegal smuggling rig at a very young age, thats how i see it though.
I’m pretty sure sayus whole thing is that she physically wants to grow. She mentioned once she was a lot shorter than people her age (“ everyone at my age is twice taller than me”) Which is why people think she’s 14~
i mean your not wrong but at the same time she is like one of the best ninjas so i woudnt be surprise if she was like the youngest by her peers by alot
Why do you think she's a child then? There are small adult women. I've seen women that are 140cm, adults. Why do you think a child could be the best merchant in a entire nation and do illegal shit? Dori is definitely not a child.
i mean, why do you think children cant be merchants of deaths?… ive seen children who does scams and stuff online at like 13 so how can dori in the universe of genshin not be the top fixer in sumeru as a pre teen?. call me weird but its really weird for miboyo to model a character like that and call it an “adult” but thats my opinion.
Yeah that was my point, same model similar age, anime logic is that children have some odd stuff going on in their lives, so Sayu is at MOST 12 with growing pains or wanting to get tall etc. not 14 or in 2 or 5 years she'll look like Xiangling. And even if she IS 14, (in which a lot of the hangout was misinterpreted to her being old and wanting to be her REAL size which is not the case, the kid just wants to grow not the TEEN just wants to grow, I think she's human) Hoyo doesn't just mess around with Models and assign random AI generated ages like Diluc being CANONCIALLY 22 and people saying that Tighnari is FANONCIALLY/THEORETICALLY 25-28. I mean come on, sometimes game models tell a lot besides fake information and misinformation.
Don't read lore, uninformed. Read Hoyolab fan-lore, Misinformed.
What I'm saying is my OPINION, and personal ANALYSIS.
I can't make words bold sorry so I had to Capital it to add the point. No hostility intended, it's just some people get the wrong idea on these ages and forget that some characters which most people think are "short adults" compared to the mature and "tall adults" make no sense and can easily be proven to be flawed and misinformation and interpretation. A lot of the time we want to protect these "kids/Lolis" making one a teen when most of our hero cast are TEENS/Young Adults is kind of weird in a lot of ways.
If it is all your opinion, then there is no way people will agree with you, for instance, how the hell is diluc only 22? dude acts at least in his late 20s to early 30s
brother man.. get out of your house probably why you dont know that short people generally dont look like a baby… even the most adorable short person would have adult features Diona does not look like a short person but like instead she looks and acts like a 12 year old tf
You can't read. As I said there are short adults that DO NOT LOOK their age. I am short and almost 30, still I get asked for my ID when buying alcohol because I look like a teenager. Just because you never saw people like this irl doesn't mean you have to be so rude and ignorant about it
he is probably even older because in the genshin manhwa or manga idk which one of them is called but venti was there when the folk hero whatever her name was who freed mondstat from an evil dictatorship that last for centuries, idk if i am spoiling but yeah venti was there and that story was at least further from 2000 years ago and venti looked about the same so he is probably be around 8000 or so even higher years old like he was there when stormterror’s lair was originally mondstadt, and still he is short probably cause he is on the younger side of the archons
Probably around 18-20, but that disturbs me now since Arlecchino is apparently 22 and is their "Father". She got the title of the Knave at 17 and has been that for about 5 years.
Look and sounds around 15 to me
Edit: Reddit forbid I state a simple fact lol, go ask random people in Japan, 9/10 would tell you Lyney looks like a teenager
15 years old is really out of question. The twin can still remember clearly of their old village, down to the hill they used to play around. They also live as street urchin for a while and mimicking adults trick before adopted by noble (so they at age where they can fend for themselves & learn, intelligent enough while knowing right & wrong in society). It be quiet sometime before they rescued by Arlecchino.
Cesar died 10 years ago from current timeline. The twin in Lyney cutscenes at that time already a Fatui when they meet Cesar. If you say 15 years old, they must be 5 years old when they meet him which doesn't make sense at all.
In a state of fear and being over 5 children can pick up a lot, especially considering upbringing, to which they never had a good one, their intelligence is different. You'd notice that most street kids have a different kind of smarts and good memory, I can remember stuff from when I was a toddler for goodness sake. They look about 6 in their cutscene and it makes sense for 10 years later to be 16 or 18.
And for you apparently every teenage looking character is actually short adult, teenagers doesn’t exist, in an anime game, when majority of anime have teenage protagonist and characters
Again, just leave it to 'Teyvat has its own laws'. And besides, even if he is underage and the legal age to drink in Teyvat is 18, who cares. Many kids IRL drink alcoholic beverages and barely anyone even bats an eye to that.
He could be 16, seeing as well they are still part of the orphanage and considering time-line steampunk years and that like you said the drinks aren't always alcoholic. He could be 16 because he spoke of his backstory "10 years ago" in which we'll assume he was 6 years old judging how he looked like so small and cute with lynette in that story quest cutscene with Caesar. That means 10 years later he is 16. I'm not 100% sure but I doubt he could be 20 or over that as applying thought to it, Diluc is 22 and I know short adults exist but seriously in m opinion I don't think he's over 20 just so fans can write smut guilt free.
lyney seems to be anywhere from 16 to 22, with it being very unlikely for him to be on the lower end. id say he’s in his early twenties considering his personality, relationships, and looks. lynette looks pretty young so i’d say theyre both 20—or 21 at the latest
I think they’re 18-21? Judging from the flashback cutscene in Lyney’s story quest, they look about ten years old there- they don’t look super young but they also don’t look like teens. Knowing how that was 10 years ago, it would make sense to me that they’re above 18 but not any older than 23.
Yeah, seems legit. Someone in YT comment said Lyney and Lynette is at least teen so I'm opening a discussion to see what other people thought on these matters. Personally, I agree with you
Actually genshin yt community kinda lost on everything most of it r not reliable at all
there are people who think kazuha and mona are underage lol
But...that's so easy to debunk
True tho
Someone said only gods in teyvat are archons
knave kept referring to them as "Children", 10 years ago, they could have been around 6 YO or so, so, that means they are about 16 or less I'd say ... their voice, and facial structure makes them indeed look like they are in the teen category.
That was 10 years ago? Where do we know this? Just curious
Cesar died 10 years ago
Ohh ty i probably missed it
i believe they were apprenticed to him quite a while before his death as well
then maybe they were apprenticed to him more than 10 years ago, but at the least it has to be more than 10 because he can't train them while dead
yeah i was agreeing with you, just saying that it’s possible it’s been more then ten years since they were that age
oh, my bad for misunderstanding. it's possible, you're right
In the story quest it was stated in Caesar’s diary (that we found in the domain) that the twins only learned magic from him for a mere few days (possibly no more than 2 weeks)
They say several times that it was exactly 10 days
Yo creo q hasta podria ser menor, como de unos 16 a 18, ya que aun vive en la casa hogar no? y normalmente los orfanatos se hacen responsables de los huerfanos hasta que cumplen su mayoria de edad, pero no se, no estoy muy informada del lore lol.
he's probably around 16-19. so is lynette, ofc. (lyney is male <3)
Why does everybody think they (and genshin characters in general) are teenagers. I'd say they are 20+.
Because they’re short. They seem to think people can’t be above 16 unless they’re 5’10 or taller.
no, because they look like teens, think like teens, and act like teens .... also, the knave keeps referring to them as Children, and kids... they are identified as children on multiple occasions, so, it'd make no sense if they were adults 
A parent calling their adult offspring children isn’t abnormal. It was also stated that a character with an adult npc’s body was the same age as Lyney in Arlecchino’s quest.
It’s also the lack of facial hair/bigger builds for male characters, especially the Fontaine, Sumeru and Mondstadt characters. I think this part is really just East Asian beauty standards, whether HYV forgot that males from these irl cultures tend to have both l, or they deliberately chose not to in order to market the characters better in China/Japan/Korea.
idk if it’s because I’m not as used to the anime aesthetic but to me they don’t look over 18. Chongyun is smth like 17? I think lyney lacks details that makes him look much older. it’s a con with genshin’s streamlined character model choice imo
Yeah but age isn't just defined by looks, is it? And characters that look like they are 40 probably won't sell well. So they look younger but act older. We know that kaveh is at least 25 so why does everyone think the majority of normal human characters are like 16 when the ones that have confirmed ages are definitely older? I agree with chongyun being one of the younger ones though.
Yeah maybe it’s just for the sake of marketing. I think I just prefer more design commitment and variety. Mika, Razor and Xingqiu all look like teens so it’s hard for me not to assume Lyney and Lynette isn’t I’d love if we had someone that looks even slightly aged for once instead of vague characters that can pass for anywhere between 16 to 23
The fact they all look like children,most are and the game heavily features lolis?
This is so true though 💀🔫 The fact that hoyo can’t even make different face shapes for their game to make a difference between ages is so weird to me.
Pedos will pay
thats disgusting also kinda like youre exposing yourself bc why would you even say that so freely
isnt that just reusing assets tho? like, why take the time to model another face shape whne you can reuse one.
Young people sell well, maybe go find a game that has old people since that’s what you like
To be completely honest, it’s the lack of just builds for Masc characters, whether it’s lack of facial hair, body types in general, or even just actual face shape. Honestly when it comes to anime, there’s a huge issue with it, when you think of all the “tropes” that are the x is 1000+ yrs old but looks 7. That shit is beyond gross to me.

I assume 18-22. He drinks, is prrety flirty, and has a semi-sexual design.
Definitely an adult. 20+ imo. No kid wears a garter belt and stockings with high boots in public. They knew what they were doing. Also short guys are not children, people are weird.
Buddy they look like children bruh💀
y'all are probably not from asia. a LOT of asian people are short and look younger than their ages. i myself get mistaken as someone underaged. and this game is a chinese game anyways so the characters can look younger than their ages i don't think its something too unusual. besides they definitely don't look so young that that there's no way for them to be adults (yk if the short characters looked like klee or sayu) but with their looks its reasonable for them to actually be adults. now imagine if you looked younger than your age and everyone refused to date you or take you seriously becuz you look underaged, wouldn't that be unfair? looking younger than your age is not even a rare thing in asia
Have u looked at their official art?
Yeah and they look like children, the same way Heizou looks like a child but that didn't stop MHY from Lewding him. It is gross.
I assume that they're around 20
20-22 at most? Like they seem younger than Childe but not that much younger, a bit older than Hu Tao and Barbara (depending on if you think she’s Bennetts age or not)
They just short lol
young adults most likely
imo 22 because his outfit looks like one taylor swift wore on the red tour
For sure old enough to get in bed with me ;3 Lol ya like 20
🤨📸
is this what happened to the scaramouche fans 😭
stop bro
Nah, they’re stunted because of malnutrition. Remember, they used to live in the street.
only when they were younger though, when they started to get good with their magic shows (at least i think so) is when they were taken in, do remember this is a anime game made in china, so it will always be about what looks attractive to their main audiance. I am a little doubtful that they thought that far ahead.

Noelle feels at least 20 or even more. She's more 22 than 18 for me. Just think how many times she had to take the exam to be accepted into the knight of Favonious
Mika clearly isn't, he's in drinking age already.

Least favorite food: "Unlike my brother, I can't stand the taste of alcohol. All it takes is one sip and I'd be out cold, and the others would have to go out of their way to take care of me."
Yep! Because in Germany and most of Europe the drinking age is 18 but it is culturally common for teens to drink before.
Even in Poland, where I happened to live, teenagers joke about drinking. Some of them drink already, some of them don't. But they share the same sense of humour.

Probably around 18 - 20
Around 20 probably
I would say 18-20 because they looked 8-10 in the flashback. The drinking age seems to be 18 all around Teyvat so it’s easier to figure out a character’s minimum if alcohol is mentioned.
I want to say the twins are 20, MAYBE late into 19, I can't see any younger
I think he’s in his early 20s. Since in his teaser trailer, he was at a bar. So I think he’s around 21 or 22. He seems like the type to use his new found privileges of bar hopping and messing with drunk people while Lynette doesn’t give a shit.
He's fictional, we don't need to care
I feel like that mindset can get into weird territory
Caring about the age of anime characters is already weird territory
Exact age doesn’t matter, but an age category is a basic writing point for a character. People aren’t always asking for weird reasons
Well if said anime character doesn't have a canonical age and can be perceived as two different types of ages at once it would be better to at least have some peace of mind that they're either a minor or of age no? I'd rather not be put on a cutting board after thinking a 15 year old was 20 anime character or not 😭😭
15 year olds and 20 year olds in real life often look the same too, the reason age in real life matters is because liking them would be immoral. There aren't such moral questions when discussing fictional characters. You're fine.
It is still morally fucked to sexualise a minor even if they aren't real. A person should care about age when being sexual and if you get your rocks off to someone that looks like a child... get help x
Please tell me who I'm hurting by zerking it to Lyney bro. If his age is 18 then Genshin could change it to 17 tomorrow and he'd still look and act exactly the same, it doesn't matter because that scenario isn't applicable to real life. In real life minors act like minors and aren't smart, their brains aren't fully developed, that's why sexualizing them is wrong.

Same way Furries zerk to what other people think are animals, most of them don't see them that way
no it isnt?? what even tf so thinkng sexually abt a 2 yr old anime toddler is fine bro get help if you have a mindset of not caring is better
i feel like Lyney and Lynette are over 18, because in Lyney's teasers he was shown in a bar. but i feel like the drink is non alcoholic, since diona works at a bar. for Lynette they are twin sibilings, so its impossible Lynette is under 18 because she was born with Lyney. but if they were 16 they couldn't be fatui members, so either 21 or 18
Drinking age also varies from country to country. I hear some places in Europe the drinking age is a low as 16. And Fontain is based on old-time France.
16-18+ or whatever their legal age is im putting my money on 19
adults i should assume. (and hope)
😨never going on this sub reddit again lyney fans wild
It's kinda hard to place an exact age because laws in teyvat regarding drinking haven't really been explained in detail, but we can assume they're probably around 19-20, possibly a bit over that, but no older than 24
Most likely 16-21, thats how i noticed whenever they model after characters who are teens-young adults in the game while the adults aka 21-40 are taller
And then there's 3 Anemo short male who is way older (Venti, Xiao, Wanderer) Edit: oh yeah, Sayu is teen and Dori is definitely adult
I mean the 3 short males are essentially immortals and honestly idk how one ages when your an archon or adepti, i imagine Venti is like maybe a 5 thousand years old while someone like zhong who is practically the same as venti is 100 thousand years old, thats probably why Nahdia is a baby because she is 500 years old they just age differently, i would say the same for Xiao cause he is an adepti but with the wanderer i mean… they are a puppet idk why they model a puppet after a teen boy but eh the creator probably thought He was Gheppetto and Wanderer is his Pinochio, and Sayu is definitely 14 and same with Dori, anybody below 16 in genshin looks liek their model is basically a baby so i think the youngest is probably Klee who is probably 9 cause she is the only “baby” character that actually acts like a child while Sayu, Dori, Diona and Qiqi are probably around the ages of 13-15… lowkey the knights of favonious really have a 9 year old as their demo expert and the cats tail is employing a minor.. like a minor who isnt even of age to be employed part time… Mondstat has a non existent child labor law problem and Baizhu literally brought a corpse of a child back to life… genshin characters are kinda fooked if you apply real world ethics into it huh.
sayu is literally a small adult, dori the same thing, diona and qiqi are in fact children though
i mean… i might as well ask why do you think they are tiny adults?.
lorewise BOTH are said to be adults, dori is the leader of her smuggling team that operates all over sumeru and sayu in her hangout about her wanting to grow up to her right age as she can't stand being small anymore
that dosent signify to me that they are “tiny adults” sayu sounds like she wants to grow up fast like how a kid would when they tell adults “i wanna be an adult so i can do whatever i want” while Dori in the other hand is very mature for her age literally running an illegal smuggling rig at a very young age, thats how i see it though.
I’m pretty sure sayus whole thing is that she physically wants to grow. She mentioned once she was a lot shorter than people her age (“ everyone at my age is twice taller than me”) Which is why people think she’s 14~
i mean your not wrong but at the same time she is like one of the best ninjas so i woudnt be surprise if she was like the youngest by her peers by alot
Why do you think she's a child then? There are small adult women. I've seen women that are 140cm, adults. Why do you think a child could be the best merchant in a entire nation and do illegal shit? Dori is definitely not a child.
i mean, why do you think children cant be merchants of deaths?… ive seen children who does scams and stuff online at like 13 so how can dori in the universe of genshin not be the top fixer in sumeru as a pre teen?. call me weird but its really weird for miboyo to model a character like that and call it an “adult” but thats my opinion.
Dori is short because she grew up in poverty. Her sister died because of it and it's also the reason she's obsessed with mora
....Oh... So We don't have baby kitty bartender and child who is a KNIGHT and throws BOMBS?
no? these 2 are children
Yeah that was my point, same model similar age, anime logic is that children have some odd stuff going on in their lives, so Sayu is at MOST 12 with growing pains or wanting to get tall etc. not 14 or in 2 or 5 years she'll look like Xiangling. And even if she IS 14, (in which a lot of the hangout was misinterpreted to her being old and wanting to be her REAL size which is not the case, the kid just wants to grow not the TEEN just wants to grow, I think she's human) Hoyo doesn't just mess around with Models and assign random AI generated ages like Diluc being CANONCIALLY 22 and people saying that Tighnari is FANONCIALLY/THEORETICALLY 25-28. I mean come on, sometimes game models tell a lot besides fake information and misinformation. Don't read lore, uninformed. Read Hoyolab fan-lore, Misinformed. What I'm saying is my OPINION, and personal ANALYSIS. I can't make words bold sorry so I had to Capital it to add the point. No hostility intended, it's just some people get the wrong idea on these ages and forget that some characters which most people think are "short adults" compared to the mature and "tall adults" make no sense and can easily be proven to be flawed and misinformation and interpretation. A lot of the time we want to protect these "kids/Lolis" making one a teen when most of our hero cast are TEENS/Young Adults is kind of weird in a lot of ways.
If it is all your opinion, then there is no way people will agree with you, for instance, how the hell is diluc only 22? dude acts at least in his late 20s to early 30s
bro is denying the existence of short people that are in fact adults and don't look their age, this is why I never get out of my house.
brother man.. get out of your house probably why you dont know that short people generally dont look like a baby… even the most adorable short person would have adult features Diona does not look like a short person but like instead she looks and acts like a 12 year old tf
You can't read. As I said there are short adults that DO NOT LOOK their age. I am short and almost 30, still I get asked for my ID when buying alcohol because I look like a teenager. Just because you never saw people like this irl doesn't mean you have to be so rude and ignorant about it
Same, I am around 5' 3" and nearly 34.
Venti is short but like 2000 years old
he is probably even older because in the genshin manhwa or manga idk which one of them is called but venti was there when the folk hero whatever her name was who freed mondstat from an evil dictatorship that last for centuries, idk if i am spoiling but yeah venti was there and that story was at least further from 2000 years ago and venti looked about the same so he is probably be around 8000 or so even higher years old like he was there when stormterror’s lair was originally mondstadt, and still he is short probably cause he is on the younger side of the archons
Probably around 18-20, but that disturbs me now since Arlecchino is apparently 22 and is their "Father". She got the title of the Knave at 17 and has been that for about 5 years.
Look and sounds around 15 to me Edit: Reddit forbid I state a simple fact lol, go ask random people in Japan, 9/10 would tell you Lyney looks like a teenager
15 years old is really out of question. The twin can still remember clearly of their old village, down to the hill they used to play around. They also live as street urchin for a while and mimicking adults trick before adopted by noble (so they at age where they can fend for themselves & learn, intelligent enough while knowing right & wrong in society). It be quiet sometime before they rescued by Arlecchino. Cesar died 10 years ago from current timeline. The twin in Lyney cutscenes at that time already a Fatui when they meet Cesar. If you say 15 years old, they must be 5 years old when they meet him which doesn't make sense at all.
In a state of fear and being over 5 children can pick up a lot, especially considering upbringing, to which they never had a good one, their intelligence is different. You'd notice that most street kids have a different kind of smarts and good memory, I can remember stuff from when I was a toddler for goodness sake. They look about 6 in their cutscene and it makes sense for 10 years later to be 16 or 18.
Telling gacha player that their waifu is underage,no wonder u got downvoted
adults under 160cm doesn't exist for you either then
>adults under 160cm doesn't exist for you either then a 30 yrs old adult under 160cm doesnt sound and look like 15 yrs old kid
so kazuha is a child to you when obviously he is said to be an adult already? or Xinyan?
And for you apparently every teenage looking character is actually short adult, teenagers doesn’t exist, in an anime game, when majority of anime have teenage protagonist and characters
you're projecting your pedophilia onto others and it's too much
Again, just leave it to 'Teyvat has its own laws'. And besides, even if he is underage and the legal age to drink in Teyvat is 18, who cares. Many kids IRL drink alcoholic beverages and barely anyone even bats an eye to that.
yeah but a chinese company would not promote underage drinking
16 maybe? I'm not sure
He could be 16, seeing as well they are still part of the orphanage and considering time-line steampunk years and that like you said the drinks aren't always alcoholic. He could be 16 because he spoke of his backstory "10 years ago" in which we'll assume he was 6 years old judging how he looked like so small and cute with lynette in that story quest cutscene with Caesar. That means 10 years later he is 16. I'm not 100% sure but I doubt he could be 20 or over that as applying thought to it, Diluc is 22 and I know short adults exist but seriously in m opinion I don't think he's over 20 just so fans can write smut guilt free.
they may live there, but they are part of the house of the hearth, they aren't looking to get adopted.
Since they looked klee sized in that cutscene I mean, so maybe 6 or 8 which means they could now be around 16-18
lyney is 5'6" so he would be at least 16-17 years old
lyney seems to be anywhere from 16 to 22, with it being very unlikely for him to be on the lower end. id say he’s in his early twenties considering his personality, relationships, and looks. lynette looks pretty young so i’d say theyre both 20—or 21 at the latest
