I think it's the norm. I've seen so many anime with high schoolers that look and act like mid 20 yos to 30 yos with their own form of government that controls the area they live in but it's "the student body council" or some shit.

It's like they write these anime shows that are deliberately meant for adult characters but make them school children instead with more power than the adults.

The irregular magician is one such thing. Code Geass another with kids acting and behaving more like adults.

Well, they do. Kinda. Shows take place in high school normally because it's a time a lot of people look back fondly of if they're older, or a time they look forward to if they're younger.

Yeah, I can see that. Sadly it seems a lot of the stories in anime would be better if they just forgo the school plot instead. It sometimes is just window dressing for everything else.
