How can you tell if anime characters are Japanese?

Bump

If she is from EU she would have a name like: Patriciaswell Von Mussolini DeMarquis Cirquedusoleil XXIII.
If she is Japanese she would be named something like: Yunyun, Momo, Nana, Peepee or whatever...

Names = race

Is Izumi from FMA white or Japanese?

Is michiko Japanese or black?

Names correlate with race, yes. Not 100% but it's the best way of guessing considering we don't have their DNA records.

If they have a jap name then it's best to assume they're mixed or hafu or whatever.

True Blondes, unless stated otherwise, have EU blood.
Other anime characters in general, unless stated otherwise, are Japanese.
See Anya, from Idolmaster. Juliet, from Boarding School Juliet.

I think one's just supposed to not care and wonder about how Japanese classrooms are oftentimes suspiciously full of blond, blue eyed students with Japanese names.

They're sometimes doing it on purpose: in Kodomo no Zikan it was very obvious that some of the characters were meant to look Nordic and others were meant to look Oriental; not just the hair - and eye color but the facial features as well. Reizi and Sirai were clearly meant to look Oriental and Aki and Houin were clearly meant to look Nordic — I would assume this artistic liberty is so popular to be able to keep the characters apart more easily because apparently if you ask the Japanese they also agree that the Japanese just look more alike than Europeans do with all having the same hair.

Without watching anime that features that particular character it is an impossible task. Sometimes even after watching the anime you still have doubts about character's ethnicity

>Kodomo no Zikan
Just finished watching it and, honestly, somehow I did not even have time to think if characters are Japanese or not while watching that. It was such an intense show.

On their accent

Peepee?

>Their names usually
atsuko is Japanese?

What an absolutely retarded thread.

true nipponese women have these kinds of shaved eyebrows

seiba
exisu calibaaaa

Reminder that yellow hair ≠ blonde hair.

It’s not retard.

Naruto uzumaki is a Japanese name but he looks white

Cultural appropriation

not when he has his eyes closed

Western characters in anime are marked by their big nose and shifty behavior.

I always thought that Naruro and Sakura are white and Sasuke and Hinata are asian.
They all have Japanese names because the ninja aesthetic.

The color of his hair is blonde and his eyes are blue, but facial structure is all asian.
Whites are the least neoteny race, and all anime characters have neoteny design.

Japanese

Most "white" characters in anime are just candy colored asians.
Most "black" characters in anime are just tanned asians.

Based foreigner.
Flip a SAM sideways to fire horizontally.

What about Edward and Eren? They are 100% white but look pretty soft.

>White colored Japanese shouting Soviet praises
I will never see Muv Luv in another light ever again.

Kunrei-shiki is not ancient unlike Hepburn.

>blonde hair
>blue eyes
>asian
Kek. You bug people are fucking hilarious. You will never match pure Aryan beauty.

Shogun Arthur, and the samurais of the round kotatsu, are staples of the japanese culture.

lmao

Then what race are people with green hair and pink eyes?

Naruto has no nose. They are a land of snake people.

Yet still じ does not sound even remotely similar "zi"

>similar
* similar to

>Says japanese characters are western because their nose isn't wide
>Ignores that they aren't long and don't have pronounced tips either, which is common in western facial structure.
>Focus on eye color, not eye stricture
>Unironically presents Asian lips as more pronounced than western lips.

>usually
>not always
If they have a foreign name attached to their Japanese name, they be hafu.

After spending 4 fucking years around asia, 2 of which were in japan, i can't believe shit like this is still going around.

nips come in few main variations, mainly the "chinese", the "korean" and the "northern nip" (ainu mix)
prominent lips and a wide nose are what you're likely to see on about 20% of the population, no more, and almost exclusively on the "northern" kind.
"korean" have narrow noses, and they're by far the largest group in the population.

If anime characters were white, weebs would be into white women

When one of them lives in space Murica it's not too hard to figure out

he's from leaf village
it's not that hard OP holy shit you're such a fag

Neither does tu sound like tsu, however the Japanese government can dictate what romanization system they use. The Hepburn system is used internationally, while the Kunrei-siki is used locally.

>may be*

what about Levi and Mikasa?

Levi is 100% white, speedreader. And Mikasa is a hapa.

jap naruto looks cute

White

You a faggot

Racist

Latina

like 99% of anime characters don't have japanese eyes (their most defining trait) but instead big eyes so they can't be japanese

Naruto is not Japanese?

no he doesn't have Japanese eyes

Then how is sailor moon Japanese?

I work in the anime industry too, you are right

>If she is from EU she would have a name like: Patriciaswell Von Mussolini DeMarquis Cirquedusoleil XXIII.
Why does she have a Canadian name in their if she's from Europe?

That's just how Japs portray all charactets because it was easier to convey emotion with bigger eyes.
