Splatoon has young girls running around in booty shorts, Pokémon has designs like Marnie, hell even BotW has a quest where an adult man dates what looks like a Zora child. But these things are never sexually charged, so they have plausible deniability.
A recent example of the opposite is Lily in Street Fighter 6. I’m pretty sure she’s 18+, but a lot of people think she’s underage, so the gratuitous ass shots and potential upshirts make them uncomfortable.
