An American feminist in Japan started this shit. The controversy over this character literally started not because of the show itself, or even the manga, but because
some feminist expat working in Japan saw this character on a
fucking poster, and she got extremely pissed about how big the titties were. "This is sexist" and all the typical feminist arguments. The
Japanese of course didn't give a flying fuck about what she thought, because they saw her for what she was: A woman butthurt about women with bigger titties than her.
This is the original blog by the feminist, who started the shit storm

Note she says "over sexualized" even though this character isn't actually sexualized, she just has huge knockers. This feminist is literally objectifying her. Women like her are the reason that REAL women with large breasts feel overly sexualized--they have to hear shitty arguments like this that body shame naturally large breasts.
This was originally about the breast size only (lol). Feminists obviously also don't
read manga or
watch anime, they just read blogs, Twitter, facebook, watch youtube and tiktok, etc. This is mostly an American social media shitstorm that has nothing to do with Japanese culture. Also, this was several months ago, people have since then mutated the "titties too big" argument into "she's literally a child and this is literal pedo rape!!1" even thought the art style is in thousands of styles of Japanese cartoon art AKA anime.
