Is Zelda white? Why is it that Japan likes to blur racial lines so hard? Some characters like the new FF7 Tifa is undeniably asian but in the past it was more ambiguous (hence all the threads about her) To me most Zelda characters are white but Hyrule Warriors Link and Skyward Sword Link are weirdly kind of asian looking. Why the fuck do they do this?

The Japanese people worship Native Europeans. That's why they very often make their characters Native European looking, and the reason why in Dragonball for exmple, even though we're dealing with black haired monkeys (Saiyajins), when they get stronger they get blonde hair.

they're Hylian
They are based off of human beings

No? Even highly stylized characters can have racial markers, and Japan fascinates me because they get as close as they can to overt racial features without actually getting there. At least most of the time (more standard manga styles). However Zelda characters scream European but I still see people argue that they aren't sometimes.

It's just their style. Jill Valentine in RE is supposed to be hapa.
You're just faceblind. Pretty much all Japanese characters (like Tifa) have always been Asian, not white. You're just retarded
