Tell that to the thousands of porn sites who repeatedly categorize porn with 18 and 19 year old actors under the category of "Teens".By 18 in the U.S you are legally a adult, can smoke and can die for your country. Sure he's technically still a teenager but thats not how society sees it, especially in Japan where 17 is basically that adult age
This labeling only makes sense in english, in my language 18 and above are called adults and never a teenagerEighTEEN and nineTEEN year olds are still TEENagers, my friend.
Why do you think there's so much porn labeled "Teens"? It's not because it stars underage people (I mean, at least it shouldn't!), it's because it's porn starring 18 and 19 year olds.
Japanese RPGs with anime aesthetic is two more descriptors than just "japanese games" in the title.You'd be hard pressed to name a JRPG with an anime aesthetic with a main playable protagonist that's over 20.
Again more places exist in the universe that aren't the USTell that to the thousands of porn sites who repeatedly categorize porn with 18 and 19 year old actors under the category of "Teens".
I mean you can't even drink a beer at 18 in the US!
Yes. That's why I said those because it may not be very hard to name a Japanese game starring (and by that i mean the main playable protagonist) an adult but once you go into anime rpg territory shit gets suddenly super hard.Japanese RPGs with anime aesthetic is two superlatives more than just "japanese games" in the title.
Good post.One of my favorite things about Xenoblade X was how the vast majority of the cast were adults and how the topics of conversation fit that higher average age range.
For the core cast, you have:
Elma 29
Lao 31
Doug 30
Irina 27
Gwin 24
And of the recruitable characters you have:
Alexa 21
Boze 54
Frye 30
Phog 24
Hope 24
HB 28
Murderess 26
Nagi 57
Yelv 22
The only characters younger than 20 are:
Mia 19
Celica 18
Lin 13
Was kind of refreshing seeing JRPG characters chat about basic co-worker small talk topics like kids, alcohol, cars, sports, etc. I don't know about well-functioning since there's a lot of alcoholism and depression going on in there but uh... Those are pretty adult problems to have at least?
Stocke from Radiant Historian is a seasoned military man who is above 18 and consistently makes rational down to earth decisions instead of relying on "lol mAh bodY moVEd oN it's Own. pOWer Of FRiENDship yaLl
Dante lives in a dump, has a ton of unpaid bills, eats pizza every day... you know what yeah you're right.
I was gonna say Suikoden 3 with Chris and Geddoe. Hugo though is younger.

Dude is pretty much an absentee single father
If you consider that cast well adjusted I can't stop you but I wouldn't be quick to call Yukino or Baofu as having it all together.It's funny because all playable adult characters from P2 are well adjusted (Katsuya the most)... except Ulala. She is a mess, and she know it, but still try hard to find passion and direction in her life.
Yukino is probably the most mature and stable character in the series. Unless you meant someone else.If you consider that cast well adjusted I can't stop you but I wouldn't be quick to call Yukino or Baofu as having it all together.
Katsuya has his fair share of issues too from what I remember.
I may be getting my plots mixed up as it's been awhile since I watched a play through of EP. I remember something happening with her but I may have crossed her up with Ulala in my head or something.Yukino is probably the most mature and stable character in the series. Unless you meant someone else.
It's been a while for me too but she always seemed like the only one who didn't have much to worry about. She's very much the dependable "older sister" that Maya tries to be. I completely forgot what her encounter with her shadow was like though!I may be getting my plots mixed up as it's been awhile since I watched a play through of EP.

EighTEEN and nineTEEN year olds are still TEENagers, my friend.

I said "star". Supporting cast are not the stars. I'm talking about leads. Of course there's been black characters in JRPGs, just never in a main playable protagonist role.
