I think I will continue
watching this twilight world
as long as time flows.
Welcome would you like the hunched over handwringing or the pacing handwringing?

Sometimes media we like has gross things in and it's important that we distinguish between the parts of a thing we find gross and not ignore them just because they're tied to a thing we find resonant or good

And sometimes we're lucky and we get spinoff manga that focuses more specifically on the parts we like, yay Kanna

I read the manga and I feel people overstate how terrible Iruru is. I was expecting truly worse things.

Also Asians are really loving short people, please don't size-shame.

There's a difference between being short and being 3 foot tall with tits that make up 50% of your total body mass.

If you don't coddle Nazis flat Earthers then you're literally as bad as them.
Iruru's design is bad but it isn't uniquely bad. Seriously, she's not that short. Cool doesn't seem to care much about consistent heights and perspective but she seems to be a few inches taller than Kanna. That would make Iruru about 4 foot 10, assuming Kanna is about average height for a 10 year old, which is short but not abnormally so. As for her breasts, she's no worse than Lucoa in that regard so as I said, bad but not uniquely so.

The artists for the spinoffs invariably moderate Iruru's design so she's taller and less ridiculous.

It is bad, but it's not really so bad that I'd tell someone that enjoyed Maid Dragon TV to not read the manga.

There's scenes in the anime too that put off some people as it is.

Like the Kanna/Saikawa scenes.

From the dude's pixiv:

Dude's just lazy when drawing the manga, when he does standalone artworks and bothers to stick to model she looks much more normal.

Also her default outfit is horribly unflattering.

I don't really care for Kyoushinja's actual art, tbh. The Kanna spinoff is clearly trying to ape the look of the show and I wind up liking it much better for it. Iruru's brief appearance has her look/act much more like Kobayashi's dropout friend who crashes on the couch occasionally as opposed to what I remember of the manga having her look like an evil mutant Kanna.

That's just following the manga though. She's even working a part-time job at a candy store for extra school dropout vibes.
