This is because “JRPG storytelling” usually includes 9000 year old little girls in lingerie and a part where you get betrayed by a guy who looks like a Hot Topic mannequin that came to life who is named “Betrayicus” or something
I had a moral crisis deciding whether to marry off Nowi to one of the younger seeming men because she looks young or one of the older looking men because she’s a howeverever old dragon lol.

This exact comic came to my mind as well
Acktshully, Trails of Cold Steel 3 did it (a hundred-years old witch loli, but still), and it’s a bona fide JRPG 🤓
