You both are wrong.

Dorothea Ernst is European. Specifically Greece. Her name is literally Greek in origin.

At least try to do some research next time.
>>
>>23543320
She could be a black woman from greece. Pretty sure native greeks aren't that dark.
>>
>>23543332
She could also be a space alien wearing human skin. But the reality is that she's Greek, and many Greeks get very tanned if they spend a lot of time outside.
>>
>>23543337
Do you just think there are no black people in greece or something?
>>
>>23543346
In the fantasy world of Code Geass? Probably not. Brittania had strict immigration control, and tend to use a harsh caste system on anyone who isn't part of the Empire.
>>
>>23543366
Being that Britannia is largely based out of north america, I find it entirely believable that blacks aren't uncommon in it's territories. Given that history starts to diverge notably around the american revolutionary war it's not unreasonable to believe that the future britanian empire would have a fair portion of people who descended from slaves, as those were already a thing prior.
>>
>>23543346
Code Geass is not real life. Legal immigration is tightly controlled in the world of Code Geass.

>>23543374
If the American civil war never happened in Code Geass, then Blacks would remain slaves. Not high ranking members of Brittanian society. In all likelihood, they would be suppressed even harder. Perhaps even forced into designated "Black areas" and forced to do menial work.

Dorothea Ernst is clearly a Royalist and supports the Brittanian Royal family. So her family background is most likely of noble heritage. Perhaps one of the noble European families with Greek descent like other anon said. She's definitely not a black slave from America. Also, Dorothea wouldn't be able to ascend the military ranks either if she wasn't some level nobility and didn't had some sort of political backing. The nobles of Britannia would never accept it.

The end of slavery in Britain can be argued to have begun as early as 1772, predating the American Revolution.

Tomino has said that Japanese sponsors directly objected to having a blacks main cast member. No blacks allowed. The most Tomino was allowed to do was to create a brown person with European, middle Eastern, or Indian facial features. But absolutely no blacks. Japanese sponsors did not want black people or allow it. So nope. Sorry. Marbet isn't black. She's amniguously brown. Accept it and move on. Japan has spoken.

Ryu JOSE is Mexican/Spanish/Latin. Tomino in interviews said he wasn't allowed to have black people.

>didn't seem like an issue in Turn A
All those Turn A Characters are drawn with European facial features and colored ambiguously brown. It's left vague enough by design to where they could be any number of tanned ethnicities like Spanish, Southern Italian, Mediterranean, etc.

If you want Black anime characters, then you shouldn't be look at pre-2000s anime. Hell, you shouldn't be looking at Japanese anime at all. Look to Western countries and their cartoons with people of color. Don't rely on another foreign country to fulfill you inner desire.
>>
>>23543532
>No that's called "mixed" race.
Yeah, i don't understand why you insist on contradicting her origin. She's black. She's Japanese. She's mixed. Happy now. This is stupid.

Mixed race is not a new concept, neither is it a "2025 standard". Not sure where you're coming from on that.

That's not how race functions. Africans to europeans to asia contain similar phenotypes that don't fit into any typical racial stereo typing done by outdated racist pseudoscience. There are plenty of black people with facial features that could be considered "european" or "asian" and that includes small lips. Also add some context next time.

Cowboy Bebop was considered a failure in Japan. Tomino was under much more pressure from the sponsors to obey their wishes.

The sponsors didn't want Blacks in Gundam. This is well documented. They wanted Japanese kids to self insert into the anime and buy the Gundam toys. That's much easier with someone who looks like them. Not a black guy.

That's simply the truth. Sponsors didn't want Blacks in Gundam. Rage all you want.

Your information is outdated. There's no 1 drop rule anymore. Governments and companies now call it mixed race. You are given the option on forms to select mixed. Some forms ask how many races you identify with and give you the option to bubble in how many ethnicities you are apart of.

Someone can be 25% French, 25% Korean, 25% Mexican, and 25% Native American Indian. We've moved beyond just saying "he looks Indian so just mark him as Indian". So get with the times.

i didn't disagree especially since i just fucking posted tomino's interview quoting what you didn't even have to explain in spacing. My issue is your previous post wording being dishonest because pre 2000's anime still had a good number of so called black characters.

Most of you need to realize that many Japanense artists didn't want to add blacks to anime out of some sense of "racial equality" or representation. They wanted to add Blacks to anime because they wanted to draw and get practice with different paint colors. Blacks were simply another tool for drawing practice. Several Japanese artists have talked about this. Although I guess it's growing increasingly taboo to talk about this since social media makes Westerners so racially sensitive and whiny.

Why are you so obsessed with Blacks in Japanese anime? You are trying to claim characters that are so incredibly vague in their ethnicity that's it's honestly pathetic to read.

Instead of having an honest discussion on what ethnicity most likely the anime evidence points to, he just wants them to black.

Uh...no it didn't. The original broadcast was canceled. It only aired 12 episodes before being replaced. It was also a commercial failure. The sponsors were actually very disappointed in it's merchandise sales. Cowboy Bebop didn't sell much merch in Japan either.
>>
>>23546912
Yeah and I think they moved Cowboy Bebop to satellite channels to finish it's run because the original run on TV did so bad in the TV ratings. Apparently the the Western themes (Film Noir, Western, guns , etc) used in the show didn't resonate with Japanese audiences. So Sunrise dismissed the show as a failure and moved on to other things.

The only reason we got a Cowboy Bebop movie was because it was crazy popular in the West. Even before it aired on Adult Swim, Western fans were buying up and importing Cowboy Bebop VHS tapes, Laser discs, and DVDs. Sunrise became awate of Cowboy Bebop's impressive grey market sales. Even without subtitles, fans were buying the Japanese releases and subbing it themselves. So Sunrise bet on the idea that Vowboy Bebop would do well in the West. When Sunrise made the Bebop movie, it didn't do well in theaters in Japan. But it did VERY well (by 2000s standards) in Western Theaters. So you can thank America for saving Cowboy Bebop because Japan rejected it.

Karma bit him in the ass too. Tomino paid for his daughter's private college education in Europe on the condition she only marry a Japanese man when she decides to get married. She agreed. But when college was done, the daughter came home with a White European boyfriend (I think he was German?).
Apparently Tomino was pissed because he wanted his daughters to carry on the Japanese culture with a pure Japanese family. It led to HUGE falling out with his eldest daughter. They made up later on life...but lmao.

So ironic. Tomino tries to secretly push blacks, Browns, and other races in his anime for diversity and showing the audience about other cultures. But Tomino got pissed when his daughter brought home a non-Japanese boyfriend. The universe certainly has a sense of humor and trolled Tomino.
>>

>Prove me wrong
Prove yourself right. You made the claim that Sub-Sarahan African blacks can look European. Show us your proof.
>>
>>23546989
To be fair, it would be a shock to anyone, judging how Tomino claimed the guy is not that fluent in Japanese and he doesn't seem to be an actual immigrant either. Imagine unable to communicate with your son in law, your grandchildren will live in Germany and doesn't inherit any of the properties you leave behind. He might have soften to his daughter's new family, but i bet deep down, he is still cursing it.

It doesn't matter because unless pointed out or has obvious traits, then this place will argue on what is considered Black or brown from [insert race/nationality here].

And it's not just limited to /m/, without looking it up, tell me what race Dudley from Street Fighter is.
And guess how many will get it wrong by saying he's Indiana.
