My initial point was that you either can't tell her age or are lying about it. I still believe that to be true. Anyone being honest with themselves based on the entire character's appearance would think she is a teenager or an adult. Saying she's 9 ignores most of her appearance and is a warped viewpoint. So I don't agree with you at all. And it's pretty clear you'll never agree with me.

pls pull up images of real people and compare. Alternatively show to people around you who don't engage with anime stuff and ask them to estimate.

I get our standards are different bcs I don't care for the artstyle (I also don't know "the entire character's appearance", I see what's in front of me), but you have to realise mine is prolly the majority viewpoint outside terminally online spaces - you can test that, do it.
