I don’t know, I haven’t seen the scene or heard the vocal delivery, I’m not sure what kind of anime it is, or what kind of tone it’s trying to strike. If the mood is “she has discovered a dark secret and is scared” then yeah, “I didn’t realize you were a pedophile” would work great.
But if instead she’s found some porn that isn’t necessarily naked children, and it’s played off as deadpan funny or awkward or misunderstanding, then I think “I didn’t realize you were a pedophile” might not come across light heartedly in the way “I didn’t realize you were a creep” or something similar would. Even if it’s an accurate “word for word” translation, it might not sound right in the scene or match the character’s delivery.
But I don’t know this anime or what it’s about, so I don’t know what the tone should be. It just sounds like there’s disagreement with the line as chosen.
