*** SPOILER ***

I always thought Tatsumaki suffered from one of those kind of medical conditions that stunts your growth in early age. However, with part of her backstory being recently revealed in the webcomic, I started thinking if something different had actually happened. I noticed how ONE marks her and Fubuki’s age maybe too many times if he just wanted to give us the impression those kind of events happened some random time back in their childhood; he tells us that Tatsumaki was 7 when her adoptive parents sold her off as a lab rat and that 3 other years more had passed before she eventually managed to escape from the facility that was holding her captive. Though it seems to me in this time span we see her growing rather normally, I find suspicious how this process potentially stopped at the exact same age she had at the end of those flashbacks.

Could it be her child-like appearance is due to something happened at that time? Maybe related to the Mysterious Being she faced at the head or those held in the facility? What are your thoughts about this matter?
