(also being 'small' isnt what makes a character a loli, in anime ppl of certain ages have certain facial and body proportions, and many of the 'adult' characters have these child proportions, i was going off the definition of loli being smth thats not a child resembling a child, which many of the characters objectively do)

the reason i personally think theyre cattering is bc by making characters that look and kinda act like kids but claiming their adults you allow people to actively sexualize (bassically) young girls:P

i get alot of ppl disagree with that thought process but based of the fandoms reaction thats how i see it personally.
like i said, i was just tryna answer your question:)

hot take.
i think most freakybait designs just. are people? look t zenless for example. cissia's design is so cool i wish more people saw that. all her snake details. shes so cutey. it even mskes sense for her to have less clothig because shes a snake thiren. snake thirens can get way to hot quicky. coothing can trap heat.
jane doe is also just. a rat. i like her she literally does the arm pose.
most of all though: ramielle dan. i love her desig. its simple while shes a complex character. i hope she becomes playable

you forget genshin impact twin

• Aria
• Zhao
• Dialyn
• Seed (not her appearance, her voice and behavior)
• Sunna
• Alice
• Ju Fufu (thats literally just a child with a chest TvT)
• Qingyi
• Nekomata (thats a child )
• Koleda (straight up child)
• Lucy (straight up child)
• Piper (straight up child)

all of these characters listed (as far as i know) are supposedly canonically not not minors, yet designed to not just look young, which is totally ok, but look (and sometimes act) like actual CHILDREN (which is the actual definition of loli btw)

Piper, who looks the most like a child has the proportions of one, is especially sexualized by the fandom, and by not giving the characters exact ages or just claiming their all adults, the game encourages lolicon behavior and tropes, so either way it's weird.

We looked up "Ju FuFu zzz" and all the first vids to show up (on tiktok) were all INCREDIBLY suggestive (straight up shots of her buns) the second was someone joking abt "gooning" to her.... (AND it was racist)

In conclusion, zenless definitely has loli, and caters to the lolicon fandom, even if it doesn't actively engage in lolicon in the game.

(which they usually are lol)

also if her design doesnt fit her character or role its annoying bc its just bad character design that prioritizes fan service over the characters lore or background (once again, kinda just objectifying her TvT]
