> I must say the creepy anime young girl in the readme is somewhat off putting.

This statement is simply a variation of an ad hominem attack. It chastises the creator based on appearances that do not align with the niceties that the commenter deems appropriate.

Indeed. In my company Slack, our primary professional communications tool, I can count a few people with anime avatars. Not very many, but it counts.
