"In the 19th edition of the Underwear White Paper, the percentage of
women's bust sizes of D cup or larger is presented based on annual
sales data, showing the changes in women's bust sizes over the 30
years of the Heisei era. In 1980, when the data collection began, A
cups accounted for 58.6%, more than half, and the percentage of D cups
or larger was 4.5%. Ten years later, in 1990, it was 17.6%, less than
20%, but in 2018, D cups or larger accounted for 53.1%, more than
half." (From Japanese to English by Google)

That is the reason, why the bodyform of the female manga and anime
characters have changed.


Triumph counts its solds. That may be the reason, why their numbers
about Africa are different from what a visitor would expect. :-)

Well still small-breasted women appear in manga and to some modest degree
are fetishized. For the rest of the changes we can point to improvements
in nutrition.

Well, the changes regarding body preferences are clearly visible in
anime such as "Sousou no Frieren" or "The Apothecary Diaries"
(Kusuriya no Hitorigoto).

For the rest of the changes we can point to improvements
in nutrition.

The increase in body weight is a consequence of the shift in diet from traditional Japanese food, to which their bodies were accustomed, to a
Western diet. However, the consequences were not as severe as, for
example, in American Samoa, where approximately 90% of the population
is considered overweight, with half of the population classified as
obese..

Furthermore, the Japanese government introduced a metabolic law that
limits waist circumference by suggestion in order to prevent morbid
obesity.
