Would Friren count? Romance of the two teens are age appropriate for them. And two dudes that are enamoured with older women, but I think that’s it.

I'm waiting for the canonical reason why the female elves look like children while the one male elf we've met is drawn like a grown man. And I really hope it's not that their brain outpaces their body because then we're in the "5000 year old witch in a child's body" trope.

If this is addressed in the manga, no spoilers plz beyond a simple "Yes, it is."

I’d assume it’s because the only male elf is older? Idk this feels like looking for inappropriate intentions because you want there to be one.

Serie looks like a child too and he is not older than serie tho.

I mean, we have a sample size of 3 (in the anime anyway), and don’t actually know for certain how old any of them are. The only thing we really know is that Frieren is likely the youngest.
