There are a lot of characters who can change their shape. Some have fewer options than others, and a lot are limited to only a handful of forms. One common set includes an aged pair: the same general appearance, in a childlike and an adolescent or adult form. Often, one will be the natural form for the character, with the other being invoked by some external trigger. But most of the time, the child form will be used only to make the character look more innocuous or relatable. See also Older Alter Ego for a child who gets powers in adult form, and Sleep-Mode Size for a powerful adult Mode Locked into a child form. If the character just ages from childhood to adulthood by normal means, it's a Plot-Relevant Age-Up or Time Skip. If a child is forcibly transformed into an adult, it's Overnight Age-Up; the inverse is Fountain of Youth. Subtrope to Humanshifting. |

In UFO Princess Valkyrie, both Valkyrie and Hydra are adult women who get transformed into children, though by different means. Valkyrie gets de-aged due to giving Kazuto half of her soul, while Hydra gets her powers sealed by Akina. Valkyrie can temporarily turn back into her adult form after kissing Kazuto, while Akina can turn Hydra back into her adult form. Hydra also retains her adult mind while in child form, while Valkyrie does not. | |

Ranma ½: Miss Hinako has the default form of a girl of about eleven years, and turns into a curvaceous twenty-something by absorbing Life Energy, Battle Auras and Ki Attacks. Although it's never addressed in the source material, it seems likely that her adult form is her true age, and her child form is the result of slowed aging due to Happosai giving her Energy Absorption powers via altering her metabolism with Pressure Points to cure a childhood illness. Happosai's old friend Rakkyosai is cursed to change into a small child after falling into the Spring of Drowned Boy. The thing is, he's exactly the same (toddler-like) size in both forms, so he has no advantages or disadvantages from one body to the other, but his real body is more... wrinkly. A lot more. |

Feruchemists in Mistborn can store their age in the metal atium, allowing them to shift to be as young or old as they want- but since Feruchemy is based on Equivalent Exchange, they can't make themselves young without spending the same amount of time old, and vice versa, meaning this power is normally considered fairly worthless except for disguise purposes. The Lord Ruler, however, can do both Feruchemy and Allomancy, and by combining the two systems can get a lot more power from his Feruchemy, meaning that he essentially has eternal youth so long as he spends a few hours every few days as an old man. | |

Zeku, Guy's master who originally appeared as an NPC in Street Fighter Alpha 2, has gained this ability in Street Fighter V, being able to switch between his current self and his younger self at will. He plays differently depending on which mode he's in, with his old form being slower but with a greater damage output and attack range, and his younger self being faster and more combo oriented. | |

In Ah! My Goddess, Belldandy mentions that the three goddesses are each a representation of time. Belldandy represents the Present, so when she uses too much of her power, she just needs to sleep. However, when her sisters use too much power, Urd, representing the Past, reverts into a child form, while Skuld, representing the Future, grows up into a teenage form. | |

Power Rangers Turbo: Justin, who is a kid, appears adult-sized when transformed into the Blue Ranger. Sometimes averted, when he doesn't wear his helmet. Justified because of the series uses the footage of Carranger, where all the Rangers are adults. In Power Rangers S.P.D., there's Mora, a villain general who starts the series as a child, then partway through is transformed into an adult named Morgana as a punishment (this is actually her natural form, but she prefers to be a child), before being turned back into Mora near the end. |

In Dance in the Vampire Bund, Mina Tepes's true vampire form is that of a woman who is the spitting image of her mother. She does everything she can to hide this, because that form is theoretically capable of producing an heir, and the heads of the other three vampire clans are old men who she despises and would see nothing wrong in forcing her to produce that heir with one of them. Her child form allows her to claim that she isn't ready to reproduce, buying her time to find a way to neutralize them before they can force her into marriage. | |

In Tenchi Muyo!, Ryo-Ohki is a shapeshifter with four forms: a spaceship, a "cabbit" (cat rabbit creature), and child and teenage humanoid forms- the last of which is hard for Ryo-Ohki to control or maintain. note The manga explains that a large part of the reason it's hard to control is physics- she doesn't know how to walk with that much weight suddenly added up top, and once she's practiced dealing with the raised center of gravity, she can use that mode fine. Also Washuu, who can take any form she pleases, but spends most of her time as a little girl. |

Spider-Man: The Animated Series: Adrian Toomes, AKA the Vulture, designs a suit that lets him drain the life force from people, turning them old and making him young, though this is usually only temporary. When he absorbs Spider-Man's life force, he also sucks out Spidey's spider mutation. He goes to Doctor Conners for help and he agrees, but Conners double-crosses Vulture, giving Spider-Man his youth back, but leaving Vulture with the mutation. The next time we see him two season later, Toomes is trapped switching back and forth between his old self and his young self at random, with no explanation what happened to the spider mutation. | |

Motes in the Post-Self book Motes Played chooses to interact with the world as a child most of the time due to her obsession with play, though some days are dedicated to "Big Motes", where she appears as an adult. She leans hard into this, treating her cocladists A Finger Pointing and Beholden as her parents. | |

Dragon Ball GT does this with Goku: in the very first episode he's accidentally wished back to 11 years old from the start of the series. Later on he attains Super Saiyan 4, a form so powerful that it breaks the wish's spell, so he's in his adult body as long as he maintains it. As soon as he powers down, he's back to being a child. | |

Jewelry Bonney of One Piece has a Devil Fruit that lets her change her age, as well as that of others, which she's used to temporarily change from her young adult Shapeshifter Default Form to a child or elderly form. She and her crew even wear clothes that are elastic so they can fit in any form. | |

Beyond the Outer Gate Lies...: Serafall has a "beer-buying" appearance she shifts into when she needs to be treated like an adult in the human world. She also has a yet-unseen "adult mode" that is actually her real form. She keeps it hidden with Glamour because it's So Beautiful, It's a Curse. There's an In-Universe example in Miracle Levi-tan with the Wandering Wizard, whose Nice Hat is a magical item that makes him look older than he really is. |

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind: Prosciutto is a 20-something young man, but at one point in the series he appears as an old man. This is done using his Stand's power "Grateful Dead", which ages everyone within its radius, and he aged and later de-aged himself to set up an ambush where he disguises himself as one of Grateful Dead's victims. Doppio looks like a 17 year old boy, but he's actually the younger-looking Split Personality of Diavolo, The Don of Passione, who is 33 years old. |

Lambo whips it out anytime he throws a tantrum to become 15-year-old Lambo, a marginally more mature version of himself with admittedly improved fighting skills. Becomes a major plot point during the Future arc. | |

The titular Space Ace in the laserdisc video game is turned into a child as a result of the Big Bad Borf's "Infanto Ray". During certain parts of the game, the player has the chance to "energize" Ace and turn him back to his adult form for a short time; adult Ace sequences tended to be more about fighting villains while child Ace spent most of his time trying to avoid or escape enemy attack. | |

Pandora from El Goonish Shive appears in her child form when she reveals herself to mortals, and assumes her adult form when dealing with her son and during her later appearances in the ephemeral universe parallel to the physical plane of existence called the spiritual plane. These are not her only forms however; as a shapeshifter she can appear as anything between a monstrous "cloud" and a clone of any other character. Mr. Raven can alternate between a sixtyish form and a twentysomething one. |

Space Pirate Mito is an alien that looks like a third grader, despite being over ten thousand years old, but has a mail suit that she uses for combat that looks like an adult human. She has similar suits for just masquerading as a human adult, and a good deal of the conflict in the first half of the series comes from trying to get her half-human son to accept her actual, childlike, form, when for most of his life he's only seen her in mail-suit form. | |

Nezuko from Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. Though not really commented on in-universe, her physical age changes depending on how much she gives into her demonic nature, with her body maturing to that of a young woman when in her full demon form. This is first shown at the very start of the series when her body began growing as she tried to devour Tanjiro, before regaining her senses and maintaining her familiar young appearance. She is also capable of transforming into an infant-like state, as seen during the beginning of the Swordsmith Village arc. | |

In YuYu Hakusho, Koenma sometimes appears as a toddler and sometimes as a young man. There's also Genkai, who is, by default, an old lady who's also a martial arts master, but rejuvenates to a young adult when using her Reiha (because it's a technique that, by spreading out the user's spiritual energy, changes them to how they looked when they were at the peak of their powers). |
