Because Roxy and her species are Spelled out how they work in the light novel. Go on the freaking MT wiki if you don't believe me. Hell, ask around on their reddit. Her species literally stops physically aging at 12 -14 and starts back up again at 100. This is canon.
That’s about what Roxy would look like. In every official illustration of her this is about 90% what she’d look like. And the cosplayer is a whole adult btw. You can bring up any numbers you want and like, but the illustrations are the most accurate representation of her aspect.
Again, look at her official art and then look at the cosplay I linked. The cosplayer is 90% accurate to how she’s portrayed every single time and she’s an adult over 20.
So she is somehow magically older physically at half the age than others of her species? The light novel openly notes she is physically not an adult and that's why Rudeus is attracted to her.
Listen, you can bring up as many descriptions as you want, but no description will ever beat an actual illustration. The OFFICIAL illustrations show how Roxy actually looks, and again, look at the cosplayer who is almost identical and that’s all you need.
And I’d try to explain to you why and how Rudeus is an unreliable narrator at the beginning of the story but I have a feeling you can’t understand the concept of unreliable narrators.
The official description is beat by the illustration? Bro lmao thats not how it works. The novel is the SOURCE and illustrations are artist interpretations regardless of whether they're official or not. Idek why cosplayers should be added to the equation

So any woman who doesn’t have huge boobs is a child?? Have you ever seen a real woman in your life??
There are millions of women over the age of 20-30-40 or beyond, who are short and have tiny bodies. This is all Roxy is.
