Why aren’t anime character MCs tall

[Deleted member 51358]

They’re usually like 5’9 to 6ft tall

That is tall for Japan

Their measurements are short/avg, but they're drawn very tall

they have proportions of 7 footers

It also helps the author/artist create a dynamic between the MCs and villains

A lot of shonen animes use the David vs Goliath trope

 

[Notcel]

They like making the mc jestermax and that wouldn’t make sense if the Mc was attractive so they make funny frames
