      They do this shit every time and it’s exhausting. It’s to the point I don’t even look at anime post anymore because I know these snow apes will have a conniption in the comments

      As a hardcore Black gamer, I can attest to having to deal with this type of thing any time a Black character isn’t a throwaway/background character. These people are willing to play as any sort of alien/blob/gremlin/orc and they’re totally fine with it. But the moment a developer makes the main character Black, they lose their minds!

      Like, take Echoes of The End. It’s a game that came out roughly 2 months ago from a freshman Icelandic dev team. It’s based on Icelandic folklore and is made by Icelandic people. But… BUT… The main character is voiced and motion captured by a Black (mixed) Icelandic woman. Needless to say, the clowns are screaming “woke” and imploring their compatriots to boycott the game because it’s Icelandic, but has a Black woman as the main.

      Oddly, enough. It’s mostly Americans who are doing this griping and the Icelanders are pushing back and telling them that the main character IS Icelandic. But, to Americans, there’s no way a Black person can exist outside of the spaces they permit us to exist. Anyway, more proof that crying “woke” has nothing to do with politics and everything to do with race!

      People argued about One piece even after the author himself clarified the origins of people.

      >Usopp is probably “African” because he uses exotic plants in his attacks and Oda thought Africa was a country, as a lot of people do. Nothing to do with skin color.

      Lol

      I remember before Crunchyroll got rid of comments under episodes, there was a whole ass war about Ogun from Fire Force being Black and how it wasn’t racist when they referred to him as a gorilla.

      I just wanna say that I, too, have my best monologues about society while I’m pooping on the can. Thank you to the OOP for helping me feel seen. To the rest of you, I guess just be happy I don’t use TikTok.

      In Saiki K. his love interest is black with a blonde weave, but apparently I was mistaken. She’s just deeply tan and wears fake nails and speaks with a California accent.
