#Arbyswaifu "Actually, she's 54 years old"
- Thread starter FriskyCanuck
- Start date
She looks like a kid. The "this little kid is actually XX years old" is a common trope that most of the time ends being about sexualising kids
It's using (but maybe just meant to be making fun of) 1000 year old dragon excuse.
Where is she being sexualized and where are they claiming she's a different age to defend the sexualization?
I think this could have been avoided if they put #ArbysChibi or something.
The waifu thing makes it a bit creepy along with the age 54 reply.

This definitely seems like a bit of stretch to get upset over.
Character design reminds me a bit of the "Theatrhythm" designs at first glance.
Something else too but it's slipping my mind at the moment.
Edit: I love her floating cowboy hat.

They said she is actually 54 because arbys is 54, and they said she is a waifu. Calling someone a waifu may as well be sexualizing.
Right? This is awful even if the character is supposed to be 54.
Seems like a very standard chibi woman.
That said, I'm not sure what they're thinking with this "contest". Not gonna be family-friendly, that's for sure

It's a chibi character based off of the brand.
So yeah it would be 54 years old, as old as Arby's
What's the problem here?

Gonna need to see the non-chibi version to be sure. If this is all, then it's not a good look.
Yeah the exchange in the op comes off a bit as if wanting to be upset by something that really isn't with getting upset about, like can drawings of adults not be "small and cute"?
I dunno maybe there's something I'm missing, just not seeing the bridge here between "overly stylized character depiction" and "enabling pedos".

It's official, the internet was a mistake -- I will enjoy watching this conversation devolve into the "won't you think about the sexualized children?" group and the pederast defense league, maybe with an Arby sauce size of gamergate subliminals (like the rappers are wont to do).
I mean, again, adult characters get Chibi-fied all the time. This to me seems like such a stretch. Maybe I am missing context here.
