''Well, Rin and Len are 14, and in their normal form look like 11-12 while in their append form look like 16-17. And, if Len is Shota, then that would mean Rin is Loli.''

Before you say that, look up "lolicon", Lolicon isn't the gender opposite of Shota, or at least not a perfect match. Its actually a lot more serious then what Shota is too, as a lolicon girl can have the appearance of a 8 year old (or even be one) and be highly sexualised, more so then Shota's normally are. To the point where lolicon is actually a high cause for concern and people have been trying to fight the genre in recent times.

All in all while Len can be accepted as "shota", even in the original KEI artwork, as "Shota" art has a wider grit, a simple comparison of Rin's original artwork and Lolicon style pretty much confirms she doesn't fit the Lolicon boots. This is why Yuki has received more fuss for being closer to the Lolicon genre Or opening the doors for lolicon fanart from that genre, and Rin practically get naught. :-/
