I swear, anime fans can't keep getting away with their soft-pedophilia.

Does Inuyasha promote bad relationships? 🤔

I mean, Inuyasha himself is constantly hung up on his dead ex-girlfriend, and his dead ex-girlfriend still hates Inuyasha for killing her, even though he didn't and she fucking knows it was actually Naraku.

Meanwhile his current maybe girlfriend is only like 16 and he at least a hundred years old.

I don't get it. Is the joke that most anime sexualizes underage characters and glorifies unhealthy relationships? Because that's decidedly not true. There are all kinds of anime shows, it's just a bias in what gets imported into western countries.

It’s been a while (think decades) since I watched any considerable amount of anime, but off the top of my head, Patlabor, Trigun (possibly problematic), Gundam Wing, Robotech, Solo Leveling.
Stretching the definition of anime: Gargoyles, Star Wars: Rebels and Castlevania (2017)
