My friend and I had this conversation about anime and telling people ages of characters. Do I need to know that the MC is 27 and nearly a spinster? Not really, it doesn't make a lick of difference.
What makes it real weird is when they go out of the way to point out characters are teenagers in a clearly non-teenaged novel.
