Adorably Precocious Child | comment |
This kid may not have even hit puberty yet, but acts as if always preoccupied with responsibility. They work hard at whatever they do and treat things seriously, but every once in a while they do indeed act like a kid (and hate the subsequent teasing). Usually not taken too seriously by anyone and hate being treated like a kid by adults, even if they secretly like the attention. Often their family situation is problematic. They might be a lonely only child, although they could also have a big sister or brother they respect and admire. The Adorably Precocious Child can attach to the closest adult who lets them, creating an Intergenerational Friendship, and often finding a Parental Substitute. This is especially common if they're also a Bratty Half-Pint. Sometimes this works in reverse, and the adult character may have to defend themselves against unwholesome comments by other characters by insisting they're Like Brother and Sister, or, more often, explain that the child is Like a Son to Me, or even a Replacement Goldfish for a dead relative. Compare with Cheerful Child, Innocent Prodigy or Wise Beyond Their Years; contrast Troubling Unchildlike Behavior. Sometimes also a Token Mini-Moe. See also Kids Raiding the Wine Cabinet and Entertainment Above Their Age. |

There's also Emizel in Disgaea 4, although extremely young (for a demon), he's attempting to fill the role of Grim Reaper for his father. People don't take him seriously at all, but that's more because he's terrible at his job than his age. He's also clearly being played for cute, thanks to his bow tie and shorts. | |

The Autobiography of Jane Eyre: Adele Rochester works all the time for her futile homework assignment (though she's fond of learning), knows all about art forms of the twentieth century, speaks French, uses Latin in her tweets, has ballet/fencing/opera lessons, plays puzzles competitively, frequents Advanced Marine Zoology courses, went to an Applied Physics boot camp and is a Scout girl. She's very responsible, knows what she wants, and Jane says she kind of tutors herself. As is typical for precocious children, her family situation is complicated, to put it mildly. She surely knows a lot, but sometimes she has troubles to contextualize it and can come off as a weird kid. She's very nice to Jane, who is concerned about her being lonely and neglected by her father. | |

Disgaea: Taro of Disgaea 2 is a fairly straight example, though a bit of a Cloud Cuckoolander. He's sweet and more mature than one would expect and is absolutely adorable. He's not taken very seriously by anyone, though. There's also Emizel in Disgaea 4, although extremely young (for a demon), he's attempting to fill the role of Grim Reaper for his father. People don't take him seriously at all, but that's more because he's terrible at his job than his age. He's also clearly being played for cute, thanks to his bow tie and shorts. |

Hitsugaya Toshirou of Bleach also seems to suffer from this, except that a lot of people in the story do treat him seriously, because he's in a position of authority. Although he's Really 700 Years Old, he still suffers from this because the rest of the characters he works with are even older. | |

Boo from Now and Then, Here and There is adorable, loyal, protective, loving, responsible, mature, kind, innocent (but not for long), and realistic. He's also a child soldier, forced to fight in a mad king's army. The responsibility on his shoulders is staggering. Doesn't have a Cool Big Sis, but latches onto the series' Ensemble Dark Horse, even taking a bullet for him. | |

Fire Emblem: Rolf from Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance certainly qualifies often putting a tough front despite being very sensitive and sweet. Sothe qualifies once we learn his backstory: he's been looking after and protecting Micaiah for years despite being younger than her. Both genders of Kana qualify for this in Fire Emblem Fates, though the Male qualifies for this slightly more. Due to growing up in the Deeprealms, they hate being seen as a child and work to contribute to the army in the best way they can... while simultaneously still being a Daddy's Girl / Momma's Boy at the end of the day, with a major need for affection and huge imagination like other children. Fire Emblem: Three Houses introduces Lysithea von Ordelia. The youngest student in the academy? Check. Incredible magic skill? Check. A hardworking, responsible personality? Check. Putting on a mask of maturity and outward sternness? Check. Occasionally indulging in kid-like antics such as stuffing herself with sweets? Check. Dislike of being called a child? Check. |

An oddly disturbing example is found in the titular protagonist of The Saga of Tanya the Evil, who is a ruthless self-serving Blood Knight and a very Creepy Child... and is also an adorable 10-year-old girl with blonde hair, azure eyes, and porcelain skin, who so happens to be a natural leader and powerful mage. Tanya sometimes uses this to her advantage, to get rival commanders to underestimate her, among any other uses she may need to act cute for, even if she loathes every second of it. On one memorable occasion, she wanted to attack an enemy munitions factory, but ethical guidelines required her to first announce on an international channel her intention of attacking the factory so civilian workers would have time to evacuate... but she broadcast her warning in the cutest voice she could muster, so everyone would think it was some kind of prank, and nobody evacuated, and she went ahead and blew up the factory with everyone still inside. | |

Yukio from Blue Exorcist has forced himself into this to protect his brother. Though he is now a teen, he still qualifies as he is way more mature than the other characters of his age and in a higher position. Recent revelations has turned this into a Subverted Trope as Yukio is in no way actually mature or, to say the least, cute either. | |

Agatha, the NPC on the fifth-floor quest. She's based on Sakura Matou as a child and Kirito hands her over to Zolgen, who's based on Zouken. "Ellis Bell" brings her along when he gives Shirou a quest to move them to the 25th floor. |

Flip Chan in The Amazing Chan and the Chan Clan. He acts responsible for Mimi, Nancy and Scooter when they're out on the case, and is quite a cute kid. Mimi and Scooter are no slouches in the cute department, either. Mimi usually pushes her authority on Scooter, who wants to launch head on into the episode's unsolved crime. |

13-year-old Wataru from Hayate the Combat Butler fits both the acting hard-working and responsible (he does pretty much run the head branch of his family's video rental franchise) and Mouthy Kid aspects of the trope. He doesn't have a big sister, although his maid Saki does fill the role. If Hayate wasn't just a bit too old to qualify, he would probably be the poster-child of this trope. The levels of Moe that boy radiates are staggering. |

Golden Sun: Another adorable and confusing nerd is Rief from Golden Sun: Dark Dawn. While his age is ambiguous, his appearance, voice squeaks, and behavior all suggest that he is on the young side of Golden Sun's traditional Kid Heroes. Though she didn't get much screentime or character development, Himi probably also qualifies due to her precognitive powers giving her a wealth of knowledge to draw from, and she's expressly described as "not much older" than the little kids playing in her hometown. Thirty years prior to them in Golden Sun: The Lost Age, Eoleo was a dorky-looking toddler too young to talk, but not too young to fake crying to throw off attention, experiment with his new Psynergy powers, break his father out of prison, and reason that Felix can solve the traps in Treasure Island that had the pirates stumped. And when addressed telepathically through Mind Read, he had a perplexing case of Little Professor Dialogue. |

Eoin Colfer's book The Supernaturalist involved a 'kid' called Ditto who was Really 700 Years Old — okay, in his early twenties — but as he was a naturally-immature adult he occasionally cracked. | |

Sheldon Cooper in The Big Bang Theory was certainly a precocious child, skipping middle and high school practically altogether and going straight to university aged about twelve. From the recollections of his mother and others, adorable was, however, debatable and a matter of opinion. He would appear, in context, to have had a lot in common with Ruth Lawrence. (see Real Life, below.) The spin-off series Young Sheldon expands on this and gives us a picture of the life and family of Sheldon Cooper, aged nine. | |

While not part of one of the three main stories, Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi has Hiyori from the spin-off novel "Yokozawa Takafumi no Baai". Multiple characters, but especially Yokozawa himself point out several times that she is pretty mature for a ten year old. Justified since her dad is busy with work and a total clutz at home, so she is mostly responsible for the household. She has instances where she is a normal kid though (even though she greatly dislikes when people point it out). | |

Ken Amada from Persona 3 seems like a typical one of these at first. He acts unusually mature and serious, and isn't taken all that seriously by the older party members. However, it's later revealed that he joined SEES so he could exact revenge on his mother's killer. After which point, he becomes a retroactive Deconstruction, as all his earlier attempt to appear mature can be viewed as unhealthy coping mechanisms, and even by Persona 4: Arena Ultimax, where he's in his early teens, Ken laments that his trauma prevented him from having a real childhood. | |

Black Butler: Ciel Phantomhive is a more dark take on the trope. The reason he acts serious and mature is the trauma he endured through losing his parents, and being kidnapped and tortured by cultists. He's now a driven, if jaded, Earl and owner of his own toy and candy company while he searches for the culprits in said torture. | |

Usso Evin in Mobile Suit Victory Gundam , who is the second youngest Gundam protagonist at the tender age of 13 but also lived mostly alone and takes care of/is friends with the even younger 11 year old shakti. He hijacks a mobile suit mid-air singlehandedly for himself, and has to be blackmailed (in a way) to pilot the titular Gundam. In a aversion of this trope, people only make fun of him when he's being childish since whenever he's being serious... well, it's not funny. | |

Chiyo Mihama from Azumanga Daioh. She's always in a good mood, very childish and cute as a button...yet also always knows the answers, helps her (high school) classmates, and is more mature than many of them. She definitely fits the "precocious" part, since she's a Child Prodigy who was smart enough to skip several grades and start high school at 10 years old. | |

Dragon Quest V: During the first act, the main character is a cute but serious, committed and responsible kid who has been travelling with his father all over the world to find his disappeared mother. His son Parry is only an eight-year-old kid, but he has to deal with the responsibilities of being a prince, looking for his disappeared parents, and being the Chosen One. Parry's twin sister Madchen tends to take her role as a princess even more seriously. | |

Both genders of Kana qualify for this in Fire Emblem Fates, though the Male qualifies for this slightly more. Due to growing up in the Deeprealms, they hate being seen as a child and work to contribute to the army in the best way they can... while simultaneously still being a Daddy's Girl / Momma's Boy at the end of the day, with a major need for affection and huge imagination like other children. | |

One-Punch Man: Child Emperor is one of the world's top superheroes, and for a good reason: not only is he extremely intelligent, capable of creating all sorts of mechs, but he's also really skilled in hand-to-hand combat when it comes down to it. He's also a master strategist and, ironically, one of the most mature members of the association, despite being one of the youngest. All said, he still has his childish side: hates being treated like a child, can get cocky about his status, gets grumpy whenever he has to get out of school to do hero work, and he's constantly snacking on a lollipop, even in battle. | |

The Legend of Zelda: Link definitely qualifies. None of his reincarnations are older than 16, some as young as 12, but he has no trouble taking the whole "fate of the world" thing in stride. Same goes for the younger Zeldas, who are always preoccupied with the protection of Hyrule even if they're not old enough to rule it yet. Pamela in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask is an adorable little girl with Youthful Freckles who locks her father in the closet during his Slow Transformation into a Gibdo and refuses to open the door for anyone to prevent the Gibdos outside from taking him away. After Link returns him to normal, she says she'll try to convince him to leave the dangerous Ikana Canyon go back to Clock Town. Riju from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Losing her mother and taking her place as Chief of the Gerudo at such a young age forced her to grow up fast, yet she does a remarkably good job of it, and she also displays a knowledge of the Lost Technology of the Sheikah almost as good as that of the Sheikah themselves. She still plays with stuffed animals, though, something she'll be embarrassed about if you catch her doing it. |

Markl from the movie of Howl's Moving Castle. He's generally more mature than his mentor, Howl, and yet still young enough to freak when a girl threatens to clean his room. Better yet, Howl's child disguise in the new sequel, House of Many Ways, fits this trope to a tee, as not only does he speak with an exaggerated lisp, but also is described to be ultimately cherubic with golden curls, adorable puppy-fat, and a lot of lace. It's even more ridiculous when his reasoning for adopting a jailbait disguise is simply because he had a horrid childhood (or so he says, Sophie immediately denounces him as a liar) and he has every right to relive being six years old... only prettier. But because it is only a ruse, he manages to surprise the main character, Charmain, into speechlessness when he drops all pretenses and acts very adult and down-to-business. |

Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide: Claire, or, as she always introduces herself, "Claire Sawyer, Future Lawyer," is a middle school student who, as her name indicates, already has serious plans to become an attorney. She wears a pencil skirt and blazer (or, occasionally, a power suit) to school every day, carries a briefcase, and has business cards, which she passes out as she represents her classmates in "cases" against each other or the faculty. Claire very much falls into The Comically Serious, with her maturity and stoicism being both weird and endearing. | |

Hanaukyō Maid Team. Taro is only 14 years old but tries his best to act in a responsible manner as head of the Hanaukyo family, including looking after the maids' welfare. Although the maids technically are under his orders, they at least influence what he does most of the time and sometimes (as in head Security maid Konoe Tsurugi's case) try to order him around. | |

Ebisu's reincarnation in Noragami is this to a tee, having a strong understanding of Japan's economy and be empathetic to the needs of humanity while still being incredibly innocent and naive. Being a God of Fortune (specifically merchants) and have his Shinkis at his disposal, this shouldn't be hard for him. | |

This Side of Paradise: As a child, Amory Blaine has a taste for fashion and was quite insightful as seen when he completely understands his mother when she was stressed and recognize her flaws unlike most children and once talked in reminiscent detail about famous musicians such as Mozart and Beethoven. His mother would end up bragging about how sophisticated, charming, and delicate he is to a room full of women who were in awe of it. | |

She operates from home base partly because she's needed there and team leader Larry says she's too young to join the others. Not that it's stopped her from doing so. | |

Jr. from the Xenosaga series plays with this trope. He's certainly set up to be a typical precocious child, acting far more mature than his tender years would suggest. However, he's generally taken seriously by everyone he meets, and we later learn he's actually pretty immature for his age, seeing as how he's chronologically in his thirties. | |

Syaoran Li from Cardcaptor Sakura, the 10/11-year-old rival-turned-love-interest who tries so hard to be serious and no-nonsense and mature (and for the most part does passably, keeping pace with Sakura in the capturing of Clow Cards in the earlier seasons and even living on his own in the manga continuity), but is still too small and cute for this to be truly effective, especially since he breaks out in a bright blush the second he's complimented or shown affection. | |

Amberley of The Dreamstone has shades of this at times. She's noticeably more intelligent than Rufus and unlike him, seems to hold down her job rather competently. Most episodes have her act as a leader or strategist of the two. At times however, her bratty temper flares and she proves rather rambunctious. | |

Revolutionary Girl Utena's Mitsuru Tsuwabuki, who is constantly bending to Nanami's every whim and taking care of her business, takes the desire to be treated like an adult to extremes — his rants during the Mikage Seminar and his duel with Utena border on the Ax-Crazy. "I want to become an adult and wreck the whole world! Wreck it!" "You become an adult by destroying other adults!" Or something to that effect. | |

Then again she is a child of Tony Stark, one of the smartest people in the Marvel universe so it was going to be a given. | |

Sonic the Hedgehog: Silver the Hedgehog, despite being 14 years old, can be considered this too, as he's a young boy who is naive and cute-looking, but repeatedly tries to stop a Bad Future. Miles "Tails" Prower from Team Sonic, Cream the Rabbit from Team Rose, and Charmy Bee from Team Chaotix, where in the manuals of Sonic Heroes list their ages to be younger than 10 years old. They however remain cheerful and idealistic in their adventures to stop Dr. Eggman, befitting their age. |

Invader Zim has Dib. Only eleven years old but is one of the smartest humans in the show. With feats like hacking government and alien networks with ease, being able to spell while still just a baby... list goes on. He's also one of the few heroic characters on the show and his natural fascination with space is adorable. | |

Robin from Young Justice (2010), though he's thirteen and technically juuust outside of the proper age range. But since he's the youngest and the most experienced crime fighter of the six main characters, the effect is pretty much the same. See also: Billy Batson. | |

Hamilton: Peggy Schuyler in "The Schuyler Sisters" who manages to bring up that the upcoming war isn't going to be a bed of roses; that strife will come to American shores and their father may end up in danger by wanting to join the fight. Angelica and Eliza override her with optimism about how the revolution means new ideas and excitement, but Peggy makes quite a good point. Philip Hamilton as well; he concocts a rather cute rhyme for his ninth birthday and is studying French and musical scales with his mother. |

Most of the male KND Operatives in Codename: Kids Next Door ironically do quite a few things you'd expect adults to do (usually when non-villain adults aren't around to notice) and yet the show still maintains the fact they're kids, given the KND is a military organization consisting entirely of children (with some areas in science, politics, etc.) so that would in ways make sense. Oh, and the boy KND Operatives are really adorable, just ask their fangirls. | |

And then she turns around and gushes about making a costume for her pet wolverine both to protect his identity and because it's adorable. She also does her hair in barrettes, and wears big, chunky pink tennis shoes. | |

The Ace Attorney character Pearl — despite being eight — speaks in a formal, verbose manner, and rarely takes anything lightly. This comes of spending her whole life in the archaic Fey compound, isolated from everyone but her (much older) family members-one of whom was deliberately grooming Pearl to be the next Fey leader. Still, she has a child's changeable emotions, naivete, and tendency to Squee. | |

Negi Springfield of Negima! Magister Negi Magi was the basic polite version earlier on in the manga, while Kotaro Inugami is more of a Mouthy Kid. Both of them, however, are extremely capable on their own. Due to Genre Shift and liberal use of magical age-up pills, Negi has this trope more or less beaten out of him by various physical and emotional trauma by the midpoint of the story, although he hasn't been broken of the habit entirely. | |

Sailor Moon: Shingo Tsukino is like this (when he's not slipping into Annoying Younger Sibling mode). He's highly intelligent, much more mature than his sister, and manages to charm quite a few ladies over the course of the series (both older and younger than him). Chibiusa (Rini) is a sad version of this (when she's not acting like a Bratty Half-Pint); due to circumstances in her future, she has to grow up fast and act mature for her age. |

At twelve, he's the Only Sane Man, already fancies himself a paranormal investigator and is repeatedly trying to befriend the cool older kids, particularly his crush, Wendy.
