Well, no, that’s not what it is. It’s young and young-looking characters, not “minor or prepubescent”.

Mind you, plenty lolicon stuff is extremely pedophilic, namely by sexualising prepubescent characters! But lots of it is adult women that just look young and are explicitly not children in any way.

It’s more complicated than “pedophilia”, though the overlap is… Let’s say… Conspicuous.

Often mocked with the “9000 year old vampire dragon who just happens to look like a young child”

  It sometimes gets even weirder, though. I am no expert in anime, but many of the “loli” characters I have encountered, have adult woman hips, but a child’s face, and sometimes also upper body. Something like Tatsumaki in One Punch man for example. So it is sexualizing the child-ish look, while also making it more adult like…? I have not understood what is the point.
