Japs don’t care about all that shit. They didn’t care about live action Gits having a white a woman lead. And live action Attack on Titans had Asian people playing Europoors.

Other way around. Whites (at least the American ones) see the Japanese as their racial and cultural superiors, which is why they spend so much time screeching online that the Japanese are obsessed with whites and worship them. They think about the Japanese far more than the Japanese think about them. Anime itself is a good example.

Japs in the 80s and 70s lent from so many western cultural things. Most proto female anime characters used western models as reference. Don't be a fuck because some kimono wearing naruto headband fucks exist.

Depends on the art style. There is no defining "anime style". In most it's just exaggeration of bodies types that actually exist.

Wide hips are a feature in humans. They're certainly not inspired by aliens.

Anime characters do not have genes.

A small minority of anime has realistic character design, and when people are claiming that anime characters look exactly like white people they're always talking about designs like this.

Some have Japanese characteristic (ie shinjis emaciated physique) and some have western characteristics (most of Leiji Mastumotos female characters) and some are a mix of both. The problem is they're mostly racially ambiguous.

There's a lots of design work that's taken from model catalogues/movie posters and shit that came about during animes developing years, no doubt.

It's actually somewhat unlikely.

More likely on Hibernia and Britain though, they're called "black irish".

Mostly designed by committee these day where as in the past they were small funded projects that had money thrown at them. The trend in the 2000s was to male all characters "more cuter" to attract female viewers. The result is that a lot of character was eroded from the design conventions.

In a nutshell females ruin everything.

Japs didn't complain about GITS and it's use of white characters as they looked like the characters of the show.
Only the US complained.

Not a fan of anime nor have I watched EVA and I can tell you that the MC is a lanky asian. Definitely not white

Either way he's right on one thing though. Most Japanese people really can't act for shit. So it would unironically be better off in the hands of a western studio with western actors at the helm, when it comes to acting and general emotional output/investment, at least.

The real problem is that that the Western studio would fuck over the subject material, big-time.

>Most Japanese people really can't act for shit.
This is a meme that's been pushed relentlessly on Yea Forums, where people definitely don't watch Japanese movies. Insofar as the claim is true, it's because of talent agencies forcing their idols on shows and movies whether or not they can act.

yeh he is just wearing contacts and bleached his skin and got leg extensions

It's amazing how many people still think that Japanese people look exactly as they did in World War II era propaganda posters.

Did you read the entire post?

>red head character
>played by a white person
Everything else was accurate

the draw asian people as asian in eva

the main cast is European

also anime copied disney which are caricatures of white people

its not really an argument

the whole died hair is the protagonist came a lot later around 2012 and is a huge cope

Shinji, Rei and Misato are European?

>also anime copied disney which are caricatures of white people
That was one guy, and if he had copied Disney then his characters would have looked exactly like Disney's, which they didn't. And do you not understand the absurdity of claiming that anime characters look white because one influential manga artist more than half a century ago was inspired by cartoon characters that were caricatures of white people and animals?

>its not really an argument

>Just because it's popular in America doesn't mean it must be equally popular in Japan.
The franchise is huge in Japan. It has been huge since GitS SAC.

I thought Johanssen was a good major as a fan of that show. She has that character down well considering the role would be weird to play (basically a more serious lara croft with an actual story that requires proper acting). Batou was well casted as well.
I don't get why race is even the issue here when both don't really look japanese in the original. That even adds thematically to the movie as you're dealing with the idea of what it means to be a human and how appearance affects the way we cultivate our idea of humanness.
It's fucking nonsense how that movie arguably failed due to race issues. I agree it had other structural issues, but not with regards to cast. I'd gladly watch a sequel with that cast.

redpill me to watch this. would someone who never watched anime not including something like poke or digimon like this?

As kids watching these shows we always asked "why are japanese people making shows with clearly white looking characters". It was weird and sort of clashed with what we were taught in schools about how skin colour, etc doesn't matter. Clearly some foreigners appreciated western features more than westerners. I found that odd but humbling.

It was more how dorky he looked and how it was a japanese show based in tokyo-3 which had japanese writing everywhere. The show made sure you knew it was in Japan and that Asuka was a foreigner. They emphasised that just as much as they emphasised Rei's alienness.

I really don't and you are a huge fucking weeb

If you showed anime charcters to people who don't know the ins and outs of japan they are going to think the character are european

If you showed them to an unconnected tribe and showed them picture of real people they are not going to pick japanese people unless you give them some back winded story

It seems to be a pretty common starter anime.

cope the post

>As kids watching these shows we always asked "why are japanese people making shows with clearly white looking characters".
It never occured to me that anime characters are supposedly white until I saw someone claim that on the internet. That's probably because I don't have a racial inferiority complex.

>I really don't and you are a huge fucking weeb
Provide a correct definition of weeb and prove that it applies to me.

>If you showed anime charcters to people who don't know the ins and outs of japan they are going to think the character are european
See above.

>If you showed them to an unconnected tribe and showed them picture of real people they are not going to pick japanese people unless you give them some back winded story
These arguments don't even mean anything, they're just what-ifs based on your inferiority complex.

There was no cope.

what ever you say pablo

The anime? Absolutely. Great entry to anime.

The live action? It would get more attention from anime fans. If it had a japanese shinji and tokyo 3, a germanic asuka and a "whiter than an a albino" Rei, it could get attention. The issue is the language though. What are they going to speak? Japanese? That's not gonna reach to a new audience that speaks English or even Chinese. GitS got away with that because the world was globalised significantly in that world. It's like some parts of Tokyo or Shanghai. Could even be NY in the future. I don't think Tokyo 3 could be done like that. There are clear ethnic states in that world exaggerated by the fact that the system of travel between states had largely collapsed. You would need to make a Japanese Tokyo with Japanese people speaking Japanese the entire film. It wouldn't reach beyond the current Eva fanbase much at least at first (maybe it could gather momentum by word of mouth or memes or something).

I'm white and have never set foot on the American continent.

neither have I

but Europe is fucking big

Good bait. They had light skin, fair hair and blue eyes many times.
Look at fucking DBZ. It's almost like it took the piss of the idea of Übermensch which probably seemed exotic to Japanese people. To white people it just looked like they turned into white people every time they powered up. Was really amusing to me as a kid cause it made no fucking sense at all.

Japanese people aren't literally yellow, and not all Europeans have pale skin. If hair and eye color make someone white then it must mean that a Japanese person could totally pass as white just by putting on a wig and contacts.

You're retarded. The Japs see those characters as Japanese.

no one else does

People see what they want to see.
In reality anime characters don't even look human much less white/black/asian/martian

The world doesn't revolve around your racial inferiority complex.

SAY.....whaaaaaaaaat

>a Japanese person could totally pass as white just by putting on a wig and contacts.

lmao

heres a (you)

>Japanese people aren't literally yellow
They're not that light skinned though and they definitely do not have round large eyes. That's only a westerner feature.
>If hair and eye color make someone white then it must mean that a Japanese person could totally pass as white just by putting on a wig and contacts.
Ignoring the fact that that would be a form of whiteface stereotyping of white people to be fair, there are more details to make it look like an accurate white person, but you're dealing with a cartoon here. You just see the basic details and associate things that are reknown for such features.


Strange thing was, so did I. It was odd, one minute they're asian, the next they're German looking. My parents thought it was the most whack shit they'd ever seen. Up until the 90's the only anime they ever really saw was astro boy.

I don't watch anime so this may sound dumb, but why don't they draw the characters more like this in the "modern" stuff? The more human looking faces are way more endearing than the giant saucer eyes and over exaggerated emotions in some of the other stuff I've "seen." Why do they do this?

Because the Japs like it.

However, Japs see characters in anime as Japanese, most of the time.

doubt it

They don't even look human. 3DPD a shit.

Imagine believing a Western adaptation must have an all-Japanese cast
Also, anime designers like to make their characters with different eye and hair colors and big eyes so visually Western actors are better to bring the characters to life. The only problem is when they open their mouths and start talking in cringey American English and using American humor.
There should be a doctrine in the West of training white actors to speak Japanese perfectly so that they can be hired for all the anime adaptations

yeh well know one else does

yeh they look like animals!

Because you're a retard.

I didn't say that. You said that.

>They're not that light skinned though and they definitely do not have round large eyes. That's only a westerner feature.
Westerners are also not necessarily as light as you seem to expect all of them to be, and Westerners do not have anime eyes.

>but you're dealing with a cartoon here
But at the same time unrealistically huge anime eyes are totally the same as caucasian eyes. Right.

>why don't they draw the characters more like this in the "modern" stuff?
They do.

I never said they look Asian.

No. A live action adaptation would still take place within a western nation and with a westernized cast, because that's the newfound, potential blue-ocean market it would cater to.

If Anno and Khara want to cater to Japan, then it continues being an anime, taking place in Japan, with a predominately Japanese cast. It's that simple.

Really? You actually think westerners have giant eyes that take up half their head?
With tiny pointed noses that you could open a can on?

They have bigger eyes than asians by necessity of the light conditions of central and western Europe.

Both of you fags know what I mean regardless.

>he says, in a conversation about whether anime characters are white

White people do not have anime eyes no matter how much you hallucinate or desperately wish that they do.

>Both of you fags know what I mean regardless.
No, I don't.

Well woe on me for thinking you were pretending to be retarded.
It's a generalised association. It's fucking literal, particular or real, just a general exaggerated association that most people make to things with common characteristics.

First of Asuka is German. Second of all the only people that care about this kind of shit are faggot westerners. Get a grip.

>tfw had a dream last night that Richard Hammond died in a car crash

I have no idea why because I haven't thought about him in quite a while.

>country makes characters that look like you
>wonder why
>omg only white people care

it weird bro

but you're right you probably don't wonder why if you are not a westerner

So if the majority of the cast gets westernized for a live action adaptation, then what would their revised names be, Yea Forums?

Asuka would probably get changed to Ashely and of course Rei's still pronounced the same with only some spelling changes involved, but what about the rest of the cast?

Like I cannot think that a single western name that starts with an S that wouldn't sound like a lame westernized replacement for Shinji.
Shawn? Sam? Sammy? Simon? Seth? Steven? They all sound lame as fuck.

I haven't wondered any such thing, because anime characters don't look white.

Nice reddit spacing.
Japs don't think anime characters look white.
And if the creators don't think they are, you are just seeing things.

i dont care what nips think

everyone thinks they look white

>everyone
Except the people the content was created for.

Everyone with a racial inferiority complex.

you keep saying that

they look fucking white, i don't fantasize or hope them to be

They don't look white.

>i don't fantasize or hope them to be
Yeah you really do.
No one actually says anime characters are white outside this website.
Normies say they look like cartoons.
Anime fans say WHO GIVES A SHIT.
And the people that drew it say "I drew a Japanese person."

Sorry bro Anno doesn't want to hurt the jap eva fans that there fav character isn't just like them poetic almost

they look like sharper disney characters

They do not.

no I really don't and people do wonder

So you agree with me. They do not look white.

>nuh uh
You sure showed me.

You can google it dummy

Last night I had a dream about me talking to a guy who was looking for anime girls in his phone,Asuka being one of them. Then I said she is the best one from her show and he agreed with me

This user thinks that any normal person would look at this character and say they look Asian.
You're living in dream world user driven by your hatred of white people,
They clearly design some character to look white, with defining European features like blonde hair and blue eyes, I do not believe you that the Japanese people look at this and would say the look Asian.
I would agree that most people don't give a fuck.

Why does an anime character have to look either white or Asian? And why always "Asian," never specifically Japanese?

i'm gonna need a source on that

shes quarter german.

her dad is 100% american, her mother is half german half jap

summer smartfags gtfo

They don't, they can look black like in Afro Samurai, or South American like Chad from bleach.
And, because I wasn't being specific, I didn't say German or English either, cuz I was generalizing about the features of the different races of our species.

Japan is inhabited almost exclusively by the Japanese people, who don't really care for any other Asians, so why would you talk about "Asians" instead of specifically the Japanese?

they are supposed to be white to more easily seep into the minds of white people. anime is a psychological weapon developed by samurai to destroy the west

Japs Self cucking Is nothing new

Anime characters don't look white and there is no conspiracy. You are delusional.

Whites are the biggest cucks on the planet.

They all look white, Japs are not tall they don't have long noses different colored hair or a masculine build anime Is literally shows diverse groups of white ppl

nice try samurai internet defence force

Why do you think all Japanese women like white men you bombard them with nothing but whiteness

They don't look white. You have a racial inferiority complex.

If people are allowed to attack Japan then why are they not allowed to defend Japan? Nobody on Yea Forums has ever been able to answer this.

Anime characters don't look white. You have a racial inferiority complex.

this person is a regular on r/asianmasculinity

What are you trying to say?

No just think that the Japs hate themselves that's all they want to look white dress black, everything that makes modern Japan JAPAN Is imported especially the media let's not forget anime is just a comic book rip-off

Asian masculinity is a joke I'm surprised no one's made a comedy on it

Whites hate themselves, and project that hatred onto the Japanese, just like they project all of their issues onto the Japanese.

>let's not forget anime is just a comic book rip-off
No it isn't.

Pretty much.

They aren't. Time to go take your pills, it looks you've missed a few doses.

>why is your suicide rate so high if you dont hate yourselves
You have to be a special kind of retard to think that there's Japanese people posting on Yea Forums and speaking perfect English.

Whites hate themselves and project that hatred onto others. Anti-white propaganda is everywhere in white countries now, whites are constantly groveling before non-whites and debasing themselves. Whites are wiping themselves out through mass immigration.

And the Japs are hanging themselves

And you are saying that's caused by self-hatred because you are projecting your own self-hatred onto them. There's a lot of reasons why people would kill themselves, and Japan is #30 or #16 in suicides depending on source.

Whites are wiping themselves out because of self-hatred, while Japan is still refusing mass immigration.

Yes. These people with Japanese names living in Japan speaking Japanese are clearly... European.

Western or Japanese. Anime characters are not real. They are cartoons. And that's a good thing. That means they are more iconically real than realistic art to our brains.

Japanese people see anime characters as Japanese. Americans see them as Americans. This is how cartoons work. We project ourselves into them. Maybe some of it is the old Meiji wanting to be western, but some of the popularity of eye surgury in Japan might be wanting to become living cartoons.

Attached: understanding-comics-ourselves.jpg (499x248, 133K)

Whites, especially Americans, hate themselves deeply. They project that hatred onto the Japanese, and fashion a narrative where the self-hating Japanese wish they were white and thus create characters that are Japanese yet look white. This in turn acts as a kind of approval for white identity and shows that whites are actually really cool, because look at these pathetic japs who desperately want to be white. Yet this approval can only come from the Japanese, which actually places the Japanese above whites. Whites require the Japanese to approve of their race.

This issue will resolve itself once whites have bred themselves out of existence through the mass immigration that they chose to inflict upon themselves.

I hate myself deeply, but I don't really identify as white.
