I'm not into Anime nor do I know the history behind it. A certain youthful age is prime fertility for a woman, and men are adapted by nature to be attracted to women that have an appearance matching their most fertile years.
The reproductive success of humans probably had a large dependency on youthful ignorance of what child rearing entails, and a proclivity to act without giving proper consideration. In other words, the species propagated due to youthful ignorance.
As we live in increasingly complex times, we're not having as many children. At some point in the future (100 years?) this will become a problem manifest in a dwindling population.
Don't construe this as an endorsement of pedophilia, but merely pointing out that there are biological factors at play. There's a good reason why I'm not attracted to 90 year old women, and it isn't because I'm "ageist".
