yes! So this is just,,,, my mind’s eye of how I usually see these characters. It’s just the vibes they give off. the ones I really see that are older than they seem are Rinne, HiMERU, Tatsumi, and Madara (surprise surprise).

Rinne and HiMERU give off like 25-29 vibes even when they were first brought out and Madara has always been in his mid 30s in my mind’s eye lol. Madara especially I had a hard time seeing him as a teen during his launch, he just gives off tired mid 30s man staying hip with the kids (like arneb.)

I’m honestly so sad Tatsumi is not older bc his vibe just gives “older idol forced into group with kids” where he’s in his 40s trying to keep up with Aira and technology. Like he’s just tired at the end of the day from rehearsing, Aira’s constantly trying to give him skin care routines so that his wrinkles aren’t prominent, Hiiro’s always asking him advice as an older figure, etc.
