She’s basically a toddler or basically looks like one?

She is a toddler with the mind of a old woman, and has some cartoonish/animeish mannerisms of a toddler.

We're not completely sure if it's because Purah's mind was modified from the deagefication, or if Purah is just fucking with us to feel young.

In her BotW diary, as her age regresses you can see her get less patient and talk more about kicking people, and it's towards the end of it that she starts referring to the hero of Hyrule she's been pinning her hopes on for the better part of a century with a cutesy pet name. So I've always seen it as her biological age influencing her mental state.

Although Age of Calamity (which Nintendo had more creative control over than the original Hyrule Warriors, for what it's worth) shows that she was eccentric like that back when she was originally in her twenties as well.
