She’s a child too, right? Like 12 or something?
In the Japanese films, Sadako was an adult already when she fell down the well and survived 30 years in it. So she's at least in her forties, according to Wikipedia. In the American version I think they changed her to a child but also changed her name
Maybe in the lore but certainly not this depiction
Not even in the lore
Copium
Jesse what the fuck are you talking about
Saying it's not a child is high level 'anime' copium.
It's the same character. It's a child.
Boy.... Uh you really haven't paid attention to Disneys animations for the past several decades have you...? Since the source material featured incredibly underaged characters for some stories, Disneys version made them adults. So are they "bad" and still children as well...?
Look ....I definitely do not defend when they have viably looking minors in anime and try to say "oh they're actually a dragon" or "they're 1,000 years old" but this argument for this situation is kinda moot if the depiction is clearly not of a 12 year old
This is such a random ass 'argument'. A remake / Disney version is not truly the same character. In this case it literally is. It's just merch.
But keep you doing you I guess. Enjoy the copium.
No way, Jose.
