Technically Kanna is like 15 years old right? So how realistic is that a minor would do those kind of modeling the series shows? It feels weird that someone so young wold be even legally allowed to do something like that, everyone in the manga acts like it's nothing but to me it's a bit much

Just google グラビアアオドル高校生。you’ll get lots of results of girls in high school doing that kind of modeling. They’re often on the cover of the other jump magazines intended for an older audience.

@Frankie3 I think i saw some of those magazine covers you mention, didn't realize they were highschoolers, that explains the nonchalant attitude of the characters with the topic, now i like japan a little less

Not everyone is a high schooler but they do have them sometimes. I don’t think it’s normal for them to be in high school but it’s not super rare either.

Just a different cultural norm.
@MysticLyre Not even that, it is not "uncommon" in many parts of the world either.

@PeripheralVision I didn't say it was uncommon. Just that it's a different cultural norm than where I live. And presumably different from where OP lives if their initial instinct was to wonder whether a girl that age would even be allowed. We could argue about what actually constitutes gravure modeling in different countries, but what about my original statement was actually incorrect?

@MysticLyre Teenage modeling is not restricted to Japan, and is pretty widespread throughout much of the Western world in fact. Anyone who has been to a mall should be well aware of this. Claiming it is a different cultural norm implies here the fact it is somehow unique to Japan, though to be fair these forums are so hyper politicized that it may have have been an unfair reading into your original post, now that I think about it.
