CATDOLL: The heroine of "Sweets Wars" is over 30 years old? Age is not a problem, just be cute

The new January show "Gamushi Wars", adapted from a popular manga, continues to attract hot sales of the original single volume and related gamushi. Professional fans will also carefully check whether the release time and packaging changes of the gamushi in the show are consistent. Among them, the age of the heroine, Hotaru Edadare, has become the focus of fans' research. According to netizens' inference, although she looks very young, she may actually be over 30 years old? !

As early as 2014, when the comic "Da Gammon Wars" began serialization, the age of the heroine Edadare Hotaru sparked heated discussions among readers. The most common way to speculate her age was with a da Gammon called "Kozakura Mochi". "Kozakura Mochi" is a da Gammon sold in Japan since 1960. In addition to the main cherry flavor, there are also green apple, soda, etc. The actual packaging looks like this:

Everyone must have had the experience of a snack that suddenly became smaller, and this "Kozakura Mochi" is no exception. Due to cost issues, manufacturers have reduced the portion size many times over the past few decades. In the manga "Da Gammon Wars", the author complained through the mouth of the edada hotaru: "In elementary school, there were 18, in junior high school, there were 15, a while ago it became 12, and now it's only 10!"

Netizens speculated the age of Edadare Hotaru from the change in the number of snacks. According to an interview with the manufacturer of "Kozakura Mochi" in 2000, the official said that "the current packaging was adopted about 5 years ago." The snacks mentioned in the interview were 18 per package, and the interview was conducted in 2000. If we go back 5 years, that is, in 1995, "Kozakura Mochi" adopted the packaging of 18.

Comparing with the above text where Hotaru Edadare said that she was "18 when she was in elementary school", assuming that she was in elementary school in 1995, and based on the age range of elementary school students being 6 to 12 years old, she would have been between 25 and 31 years old in 2014 when the work began serialization!

That being said, as long as they are cute, age is not a problem...
