I don't know danbooru, but on another nsfw japanese comic site, 11500 of the 61973 english translated works are tagged as lolicon. Majority of the remaining are teenagers at best (because most anime are in a high school setting).

So you're not crazy. These are really young looking. It is probably just representative of the dataset. The dataset itself wasn't chosen for any malicious reason, the people who like this stuff just happen to be very prolific artists so there's a machine learning scale amount of it.

Danbooru requires one to have a 'gold' account to see pictures tagged as lolicon or shotacon. That's a $20 one-time purchase. It's not clear to me that they are using such an account.

They used an open dataset (danbooru2018) which was scraped with a gold account.

Worth noting that according to the stats listed, neither lolicon nor shotacon make it into the top 19 tags.
