From Japanese to English and back again

[Vipershark]

I never said it wasn't.
I'm simply saying that the art style was an artistic choice by the author intended for comedic effect (as the show regularly makes fun of the fact that konata and a couple of other characters look younger than they actually are) and not fanservice, although that's become an obvious side-effect.

Konata and her cousin aside, all of them look to be 14 at the very LEAST possible age.
