Overwatch Fans Confused by Kiriko's Young Age Compared to Older Shimada Clan Lore

Blizzard revealed hero ages, causing confusion about Kiriko's history with older Shimada clan members.
Players point out Kiriko's age doesn't align with her extensive backstory with 37 and 40-year-old Genji and Hanzo.
Fans suggest Blizzard fix this by increasing Kiriko's age, rather than ignoring her characterization.
Some think Overwatch writing quality has declined, focusing on "cutesy" tone over continuity.
Players await Blizzard's response, hoping they address concerns about lore inconsistencies.
