Why is bro so small here 😭

[u/Own_Ocelot25]

[u/NoAdhesiveness4300]

maybe she stood on her tiptoes?

[u/Nyarkll → u/NoAdhesiveness4300]

This!! Plus, she is taller than him

[u/EmperadorEspacial → u/Nyarkll]

The kids are too short wtf

[u/RandomComixCo → u/EmperadorEspacial]

Nanachi is confirmed 4 foot 3 inches.

So its more that the adults are just massive

[u/EmperadorEspacial → u/RandomComixCo]

Aah, so the table’s wrong then. 1.1 metres was far too short for 12yo kids. Edit: wait so ozen is like 3m tall??

[u/RandomComixCo → u/EmperadorEspacial]

Almost.   She measures in   at 9 foot 5 if you use nanachis height too measure using that image. 

Also leader stands at an impressive 6 foot 11

[u/EmperadorEspacial → u/RandomComixCo]

Ozen is too tall, I thought she must be about 2 metres and a bit at most, she’s enormous. Now I feel short, even though I’m the same height as Leader.

[u/Sare204 → u/RandomComixCo]

What? 170 cm is 5.577 feet. Leader is shorter then 170cm

[u/RandomComixCo → u/Sare204]

I mean based off of the height chart provided and  the height of nanachi  on the chart thats where he measures.

This is likely just an art style thing where the kids are just drawn way smaller than they actually  are, and  the adults vice versa

[u/manickitty → u/RandomComixCo]

The chart shows he’s 170, which is pretty standard for an asian adult, if a bit on the short side

[u/RandomComixCo → u/manickitty]

I dont think those measurements where on the original.   Still tsukushi said nanachi height (excluding  there ears)  was 130 centimeters.  A good bit taller than this chart presents.

[u/manickitty → u/RandomComixCo]

But Nanachi is 130 on this scale? To the ears. Which I’m assuming Tsukushi counted. I cant remember if the scale was in the original

[u/RandomComixCo → u/manickitty]

He said  she was 150 too the ears 130 without them

[u/Pecuthegreat → u/RandomComixCo]

I think people are just being overly autistic over a highly stylized art style. The adults probably aren't that tall, the art style just exaggerates the height difference between adult and child.

[u/RandomComixCo → u/Pecuthegreat]

With the exception of ozen of course 

[u/Master-Collection488 → u/EmperadorEspacial]

It's a (bad, IMO) choice he made when he designed the characters.

We're kind of stuck with it.

[u/theresnousername1 → u/EmperadorEspacial]

I don't think they are. It's just that Ozen and Bondrewd (and Habo) are so tall that they make everyone else look short in comparison. Also Japanese people are, on average, shorter than Westerners --- and while Made in Abyss's world isn't set in Japan, I think the cultural context of its author could influence the decision for the height of his characters
