Black coded because they're cool and vaguely mysterious?
>>
>>735070478
What, is Piccolo black-coded now just because he doesn't have a father?
>>
>>735070478
They aren't black.
>>
>>735070478
Knuckles does have a lot of black or vaguely African themes especially in Adventure but there's nothing even vaguely black about Piccolo outside of the dub voice. Which is a white guy doing a black sounding voice anyway.

if telltale walking dead came out today you faggots would call it pandering

>>735070478
You ever consider that it might not actually be the race, and it's how they're handled? You know we can tell when niggers are put into a game to lecture us for sanctimonious reasons, right? You think anyone likes being talked down to, especially in their downtime?
>>
>>735070478
Knuckles is black because he's low IQ? Or because he constantly fucks up his job? It maybe because violence is the only thing he understands? Or is it the dread locks?
>>

This is why everyone liked CJ and others in san andreas.
Genuine niggas but that makes them good.

It's so easy to notice disingenuous characters made to deliver some agendas.

>>735070478
>Character is cool
>he must be black

Being black is decidedly uncool.

Black coded just means racial stereotypes. Is Medabee black coded because he goes nuts over watermelons?

Just say nigger no ones gonna flip the opposite you will be praised for it

This image is funny but they don't translate the joke so it's pointless for the American audience

A character is "black-coded" if he's clearly meant to represent a black dude while not being one. The Redguard in Elder Scrolls would be an obvious example. Darwin in The Amazing World Of Gumbal is a cartoon fish, but he's clearly meant to "represent" a black kid since they only let him be voiced by black kids and have the occasional joke where he does black kid shit.

The concept also comes from gay coded characters, which meant those characters who were meant to stealth-represent a gay guy back when doing so was illegal or looked down on. It's the progenitor of why fags try to "claim" every single character in fiction they like even though now it's perfectly allowed and encouraged to have their kind in fiction.

Knuckles should be considered latino-coded more than black coded since his race is blatantly based on the Indios, but he has dreads so he a nigga.
Piccolo I have no fucking idea why they think he's black coded, I guess different race + "he act tuff" = he also a nigga.

tl;dr: a concept to discuss the intent of fantasy characters that gets abused by stupid retards on social media

Is it not just listing the characters and their actual race?

Are they? I thought they were a mix of old Arabic culture and Japanese Samurai.

So you mean just characters that are loud and aggressive?
>>
>>735071164
If a character being voiced by a black person was enough to make them “black coded” than Samurai Jack and Kratos would be put on Black History Month posters. By that same logic Carl from Simpsons would be whatever the fuck Hank Azaria is. Sonic should be black coded too since Steve Urkel is his first voice-actor.

Knuckles is south american / mayan themed

Why the fuck do blacks not even know what their own heritage looks like
>>
Special Beam Cannon!
>>
Does Knuckles have the Pass and more importantly did he give his friends it
>>
>>735070478
How do you code blacks in assembly?
