I consider this one my "trainwreck of the year" considering how much I started liking it vs how little I liked it in the end. It reminded me of distracted sex. Like when you and her are both preoccupied with something and decide it's just a bad time and stop without finishing. It's still generally enjoyable but you're better off doing something else and giving it (in this case meaning the production staff) another try later.

1000x this. I wanna see what went on with them because it was apparently a lot.
As for loli ancestor incest whatever stuff, it didn't even cross my mind and I'm the guy using sex to describe the entire show so you can't say it's because I don't think naughty things.

When the average life expectancy was 35 or 40, people married almost as soon as they hit puberty, and 13 was considered an adult. So it's not really fair to judge Galileo by modern standards and label him a pedophile. Even today, 13 year old girls (14 for boys) in New Hampshire can be legally married with parental consent and a judicial waiver, and several states have similar allowances for 14 year olds. |
The problem is that the girl in this anime is a child, not 13 year old.

No, Hozuki is 13. She just looks like she's 10 (because anime), which I figured was one of the reasons he didn't make a move on her.

But the anime never mentioned she is 13 (and even if they would, it would be fake trick to avoid paedophilia charges, moving formal age of character to "Loli" age).

It was on the Wanted poster for the girls in episode 3.

Thanks; legally, they pass, though not the way it was depicted.
