No, not at the same stage in any way. But Chen is at least 100 years old, so she's hardly a child.

Her dialogue makes her seem more absent minded than childish, quite like cats usually are.

Chen being childish or retarded is entirely fanon bullshit.

She is at least a hundred years old, and she is still a beast youkai (look at her PCB portrait: the girl has mad claws/nails). Yes, that is young in youkai terms, but it doesn't mean she has to act like an eight year old, even if "hurp durrrrp it's equivalent to 8 years old for a human!"

I'm pulling numbers out of my ass, but you know what I'm trying to say.

We've already covered this one, Chen is likely sort of immature, not retarded immature (though this like everything in Touhou is subject to opinion) but more the kind of immaturity you get from not really having the social experience most humans get while growing up.

I mean, consider for a moment that Chen is basically a very mature cat, wise for a cat but ultimately the skills she mastered as a cat don't transfer too well to a human. She'll likely have a very good local knowledge of the wildlife around her old territories, a good command of the area and have pretty well honed hunting skills... she had to be a old cat before becoming a nekomata after all.

However, this doesn't mean she's used to people. She's got pretty limited social interaction so she's not had the time to grasp the complexities of human interaction... that's assuming she even cares for them. She'll likely have the basics taught to her by Ran and Yukari, but it takes humans most of our childhood to learn social skills. It's been noted that Chen can't really be trusted with shopping or any chores that involve people skills so she's still immature in that area.

Chances are she's sort of childish in a way simply because going from a cat like mentality to a human adult mentality isn't something that happens instantly. Chen can communicate fine though and she's pretty good at it, she's not stupid, it's more behavioural issues and actual experience with people she lacks.

read more doujins, granted, most of them have Chen as childish because it's a dynamic that works for stories best. That is, the eccentric whimsical Yukari, the serious yet motherly Ran and the childish Chen she dotes on.

Some doujins however play down the childish Chen stereotype and play up more to a loyal hard working Chen who will fight her own battles, but lets face it, she's not even a mid-tier youkai.

Fanon turns all characters into loyal canon-contradicting moe blobs unless they have no one to be loyal to. The less is known about a character and the weaker she is, the more likely she'll become a moeblob. Prime examples.
