Brown with light hair are no more meant to represent an ethnicity than blue haired characters.
It's just appealing to a color inversion aesthetic like gyaru and similar fashion trends from the past did.

It depends. Most of the time, anime facial features doesn't fits any races so it's up to the context of the story.

Can I get a clear explanation regarding Asians and how they represent race/ethnicity in media? One on hand you got anime like Ghost in the Shell where its pretty straight forward. Then you have the slop where they get offended if you assume the blue eyed blond is European. Best explanation I have received is that they are just drawing Asian cat girls without the cat parts unless stated otherwise, which seems like cope.

I've never once seen that happen but OK. Generally they just don't really give a fuck unless an ethnicity is stated or they have obvious features that sometimes border on caricature. The obsession with ethnicity is more of a western thing.

they're often just tanned. Have you ever seen a Japanese surfer? Japanese people are capable of going very very deep brown with enough sun exposure.

I'm Japanese and I'm normally very pale because I never go outside, but as a kid in summers I would spend all day every day swimming for months, and by the end of summer I'd be legit chocolate coloured

So are you implying that the people who got offended over that are western weebs? I saw a brain rot video where they were asking Japanese and Korean people to identify the ethnicity of some characters and I noticed they identified most of them to their own ethnicities, even the ones that dont make sense to me. I also remember China dabbing on South Korea that no matter how much plastic surgery they get, they will never be White. When it comes to beauty standards, have Europeans had any influence on "friendly" Eastern nations?

It's sort of like drawing a stickman. You simply and stylize the facial features. It has mostly become its own things, divorced from irl racial feature. Of course sometime you find racial feature thrown in anyways but the average anime characters is not very racial. This isnt unique to anime either look at pic related

Because of racial elements like the hair color and shape. But the eyes and nose are complete fantasy that are done purely for style reasons.

Look at the black guy here, his racial feature are really exaggerated but his massive eyes are purely cartoonish. Anime features are (mostly) made up so asians and white just assume they're like them.

>apanese and Korean people to identify the ethnicity of some characters and I noticed they identified most of them to their own ethnicities, even the ones that dont make sense to me
Assuming we are still talking about anime, why would this be weird? Hair/eye color isn't really an identifier, those come in the wildest combinations. Most characters are just drawn in a way that doesn't tell you anything about their ethnicity unless the artists deliberately want to add some identifiable features. It's not weird to assume that they'd just think that those characters belong to their own tribe, especially if they've been created by them.

But then you have the nips who will get """western consultants""" for their character designs, and you end up with shit like SF6's Kimberly, where you get an """inclusive""" character with clear racial features that goes so overboard that you could just stick a bone through her nose and put her in a early 20th century cartoon about tribal niggers.

I am hung up on the idea of an artist being able to truly separate themselves from the real life concepts they understand and identify with. I have seen works where the design was obviously influenced and executed to be a certain ethnicity and then I have seen works where they are suppose to be just colorful anime girls, where it blatantly looks like its it influenced by ethnicity. I view the characters from K-On! as Japanese or whatever, even the blue eyed blonds. But then you have sailor moon where it is much more difficult to deny. Guess I am trying to say that their is some unconscious cultural appropriation where they deny there is cultural appropriation, since all cultures influence each other over time. Regardless I demand gibs and every blue eyed blood character on screen to have an US flag tattooed to their foreheads :^) I am curious if the go to character stylization in the East has been influenced by Disney in anyway.

One of the best things about the game is getting to focus on certain characters more than if this were linear. Unfortunate that despite all the routes a lot of writers let a lot of the same characters still just be in the background and thatโ€™s how we ended up with no Kako or Moko route. And Takemaru gets to just be around except for 1 route he gets focus in a bad way.

There's kind of a Moko route when she's doing all the relationship counselling/dating game show host duties, but Kako does get shafted completely. There keeps being teases that it's going to be her time to shine, and then it just goes flying off into a wildly different direction and focus

Thing is Takemaru has a lot of agency in plenty of the routes and is a big instigator for the plot, Kako and Ima are mostly passive and just along for the ride without really affecting much of anything.

Hey now at least Miu was hot and actually submissive. It was always a turn on seeing that if you just push back on her a little bit sheโ€™d crumble and be willing to do whatever you want

Itโ€™s surprising Uchikoshi didnโ€™t even touch Eito despite him being such a major antsgonist. Bit of a let down

The writing quality difference is pretty obvious in Box of [x], one path is copy/pasting the entire route except for major CG moments, the other path has everyone acting noticeably different.
Gaku gets a bit of spotlight in this path which is cool, but it still feels weird with everyone else acting just slightly differently than expected.

At least with Box of Calamity thereโ€™s crazy things going on that have the characters react in different ways. Hiruko making the dumbest decision ever does stand out though, but stuff like Gaku leaning into the spiritual stuff didnโ€™t feel too out of character and then Nozomi and Shouma have certain other reasons for acting certain ways. Only route we get to see another Ima freak out which was interesting and definitely not ooc. Lot of crazy shit happening in that one

BoC was pretty good imo even if some characters are very ooc.
BoB on the other hand is a fucking travesty and the worst route in the entire game bar none.

This extends to a bunch of things IMO
>DR but a path where Mukuro sides with everyone or where Kirigiri and Togami die so Makoto is forced to hard-carry
>DR2 with a path where you work with Imposter the whole way
>V3 where Amami is more than a corpse

I'd think a country where that is described as "very deep brown" would be a good thing. If that's some of the brownest skin they see then Japan must truly be a paradise.

Just reminded me that that couldโ€™ve been Hiruko if this was just the first route. Wow.

V3 100% should have had a NG+. Chapter 1 had a very blatant moment where a Yes or No choice could have come up in the storage locker which would change the path of the entire game.
