Why does Karna look like this? Isn't he supposed to be an indian heroic spirit? Shouldn't he be brown, have bigger lips and thick black eyebrows and moustache?

>>736208656He’s ancient anon, closer to indo-european and Vedic periods, probably would look more middle eastern but not pale and not omega jeet
>>736208656Indians were whiter in the past, well, the ones from higher castes, which is why the caste system existed to begin with. They interbred though, making it so a modern Brahmani is no different from a Dalit, except for how much money he has.This is why Karna is white, he's from a better time, a more heroic time, a time when izzat didn't mean fighting a blood feud because someone complained about you shiting on their street.
>>736208656He's a demigod and the gods in myth all have random ass skin colors ranging from purple to baby blue
Most of Indian Heroic Spirits are brown, with the conspicuous exception of Karna and Rama. The reason Karna looks like that is because Nasu specifically requested that his design have visual kei element.Incidentally, the reason he called it "Fate/stay night" was because he wanted a title that sounded like a visual kei band. So Nasu just really likes visual kei.

>>736208656>”I believe Karna-san is designed as a man who is hot for the modern Japanese standards but wasn’t considered hot when he was alive. Just look at how he has no beard, is thin as a stick and has dead fish eyes. Although those are the elements that make him look so pretty in my drawings” - pako5/10 in India
