The kid hero is one of the most notoriously common hero archetypes. Depending on the game, they may be little boys or lolis. They have the power to defeat god while not being old enough to drive a car or even be in their puberty. Of course, because they're just little kids, they need a nakama to help them. But oftentimes, the nakama with these kids act as if they have no kids at all.

Because there are many archetypes that may apply to kid heroes, their personalities may vary but they are very notable for their immaturity.

Their ages range from 8-17, with the most common range being 12-14. In very rare cases they may also be younger than 8...

Spiky-haired protagonists and magical girls are usually kid heroes depending on the character, male and female respectively except in a few rare cases.

Examples

See the Spiky-haired protagonist and Magical girl pages for specific examples.
