>her name is Kasumi>she's not whiteThis is cannon
>>59116428>This is cannonWrong. THIS is cannon.
>>59116542No that's a brail Pokemon
Her name is Misty. You're not Japanese and this is an American website.
>>59116428>japs draw anime white person>claims they are not whitewhy are they like this?
>59116560>59116618malding niggers
>>59116560I'm not, but Kasumi is. Dubs aren't cannon.>>59116618She doesn't even look white though. Her skin tone is a normal Japanese skin tone and her hair is supposed to be that orange color that used to be popular in Japan at the time (Japanese girls used to die their hair a shade of brown that turned out looking orange, it was a trend for a long time). Nothing about her looks white.
>>59116542
>>59116630Explain her blue eyes then?
>>59116664s-she's japanese... I'm serious...!!!
>>59116630roundblueeyes
>>59116664Explain why Takeshi doesn't have any eyes. It's anime, characters have unnatural eye colors literally all the time and you never question it. When have you ever met someone with red, purple, or pink eyes? How about silver eyes? Yellow? When have you ever met someone with Z's on their cheeks like Satoshi has?>>59116683Her eyes aren't round though. They're highly stylized.
>>59116428Why is she a blue-eyed ginger?
>>59116734It's not ginger. She bleaches her hair and it comes out orange, it was the trend at the time in Japan. Go watch old videos of Morning Musume or something from that era.
>>59116734Pokeverse humanity has a rainbow of natural hair and eye colorsPinks, greens, blues. These are all natural. Being a blue eyed ginger means fuck all in the Pokeverse. She’s a Jap.
>>59116788By that logic she is not a Jap, she is whatever she in her world.
TPC must be held responsible for brainwashing generations of men into tomboy fetishism.
>>59116709>Explain why Takeshi doesn't have any eyesHe has slanted eyes because he's the only asian character
>>59116428Brock looks like some sort of Asian. Maybe SEA or maybe just tanned from being outdoors.Misty looks White, with blue round eyes, pale skin, red hair.
>>59116869Ash? I don't know, looks like some kind of mutt. Fitting for an annoying twerp.
>>59116837She's from Kanto, Kanto is in Japan. Her hometown is in Ibaraki prefecture.>>59116867Literally everyone in gens 1-4 is Japanese
>>59116428ALL gen 1-4 girls are white..maybe Dawn isnt, she is very japanese
>>59116428>Pokemon was made in Japan by Japanese people >she’s not white Wow you’re a fucking genius
>>59116888there is no "japan" in pokemon
>>59116867Holy shit imagine thinking all asian people have slanty eyes>>59116869His hometown is supposed to be the capital of Gunma prefecture, he's Japanese. Kasumi's hometown is in Ibaraki prefecture. They're both Japanese.>>59116873His name is Satoshi, he's from a town on the southern edge of the Izu peninsula, he's Japanese.
>>59116888Her parents are immigrants from Galar.
>>59116890Haruka is from Kansai (moved to Kyushu), Hikari is from Hokkaido. They're both Japanese. Literally everyone in gens 1-4 is Japanese.>>59116894The first 4 gens are literally set in real world locations in Japan but given different names. Even the landmarks are real locations, like the burned tower in Johto being Kinkakuji.
>>59116900No they aren't. Kys.
>>59116903lt. surge is definitely not japanese
>>59116903there is no "japan" in pokemon
>>59116904I don't have a sister.
Why do they make many anime characters look European.
>>59116907You're right and I always forget him when I say that. Surge is literally American, he's called the lightning American. Everyone except for him is Japanese.>>59116908Kanto, Johto, Hoen, and Sinnoh are all regions in Japan. Surge is literally called "the lightning American" and the journals in the Pokemon mansion say that they found Mew's DNA in the Amazon. Shut the fuck up.
>>59116915Kill yourself>>59116919They don't
>>59116920the word "japan" is never used in pokemon games
>>59116919>Why do they make many anime characters look European.euro white = highest possible beauty standard
>>59116943all of the characters have Japanese names, speak Japanese, and live in real life locations from Japan. Except for Surge, who speaks English/broken Japanese and literally says that he's from America and talks about the war he fought in.You really are retarded.Pic related is Kanto. This is literally Japan btw.
>>59116951>all of the characters have Japanese names, speak Japaneseonly in JP version, not in localizationsmany of them also dont look japanese/asian
>>59116967Localizations aren't canon and aren't the vision of the creators.They literally all look Japanese except for Surge.
>>59116967What do you think the word "localization" means? Fucking retard
>>59116974>They literally all look Japanesewrong
>>59116967All of them look Japanese. Few of them fit your stereotypical racist depiction of what you think Japanese people look like.
>>59116989What >>59116991 said
holy weeb cope ITT
>>59117001holy westaboo cope
>>59116428>>her name is Kasumi>>she's not whiteWhy would this matter? I'd fuck her day and night.
>>59117050White girls are ugly
>>59116772Bleaching hair would never turn it orange, retard. It would turn it blonde.
>>59116899>Holy shit imagine thinking all asian people have slanty eyesThey do. Unless you mean "south asian" which is clearly different and we're obviously talking about the east asian phenotype.
>>59117058Misty is white and pretty
Jap-tards fighting for their life in the comments lmao.The reality is that she’s Japanese but looks white (like a lot of anime characters do) because the Japanese are enamoured by white people’s beauty. I still follow one of the exchange students that came to my high school and every single picture on her profile is heavily edited to give her big round eyes. Japanese in general are also known to love hair dye and contact lenses, have skin whitening products and eye lid surgery. This is a widely observed phenomenon; Asians in general find that white people (the good looking ones anyway) represent the highest beauty standard and so try to match it. It’s quite funny too, given how many white women try to seem Asian these days, and how many white guys actually prefer Asian-looking asian women.
>>59117072its not just the japanese. if you want an infinite money glitch, be a good cosmetic surgeon in s. korea
>>59117059It literally turns it orange, my wife (Japanese) does it all the time.
>>59117089Post wife or you’re lying
>>59117072I live in Japan and I can tell you firsthand that they give zero fucks about white people. Japan is super insular and Japanese people think they're the greatest thing in the world. Those things have absolutely nothing to do with white people.
>>59117123but in anime they all look white and not asian
>>59117150No they don't. You only perceive them as white due to a psychological concept called The Default Person.
>>59117159>No they don'tlol
>>59116919>>59116921
>>59117123The entirety of modern Japan is modelled after the west. I wouldn’t expect them to be acutely aware of this because, as you say, they’re insular is their thinking. But whether these western influences (mainly aesthetic but that’s the topic of this thread) are apparent to them at any given moment is kind of irrelevant. I wouldn’t expect that it would be, just like how most Americans don’t know the first thing about European culture even if their society was heavily influenced by European values. It’s in the nature of people to be influenced by external factors but remain focused on themselves. Going all the way back to the Romans, even, they were heavily influenced by surrounding culture but your average Roman believed that their culture was wholly in-sourced and natural. It’s a tale as old as time. Hardly changes the facts. Or do you seriously mean to tell me that they dye their hair, whiten their skin, and get eyelid surgery just because they decided that would be neat one day? Don’t be dense.
>gen 1-4 japanese>I'm supposed to think there are asian girls that naturally look like Cynthia>or Lorelei>or Clair>or Karen>or Glacia>or Cheryl
>>59117123>>59117167Basically the Japanese, along with every other culture in history of humanity, is like picrel
>>59117062>>59117068>>59117072>>59117083>>59117150>>59117163>>59117165>>59117167Anime characters are colored with normal Japanese skin tone. Japanese people call this color "pale orange", it's literally just normal Japanese skin tone. If you look at pic related you will see that these two women have nearly the same skin tone, one is white and the other is Asian (not Japanese). I recommend you look into an art project called Hunanae, a photographer did portraits like these and compared skin tones of people from around the world across all races to illustrate that race is bs and that skin tones vary wildly within all racial groups. The features that we actually use to define race are usually other features and not the skin color.Anime hair and eye color is pure fantasy, hence characters with green hair, red eyes, etc. Also the characters are highly stylized, if anyone had eyes like that in real life they would literally look like a bug.You look at these characters and due to the skin tone and hair colors not fitting your stereotypical image of a Japanese person you subconsciously assume it's whatever fits your concept of a default person. In your case, that's white people. But the reality is that Japanese people are drawing Japanese characters who look Japanese and you're just unable to see it.
>>59117181Adding onto this: skin tone also varies quite wildly among Japanese people. There are no extremely pale people and there are extremely tan people, and that's without any kind of skin treatments (I don't think anyone even does that?). I'm a white guy living in Japan and I regularly meet Japanese people with skin that's lighter than mine, and I've also met people and seen athletes with skin so dark that they could pass for another race. And you see this skin tone variances within Pokemon also. The most obvious example being Takeshi who's extremely tan, Kasumi who has very pale skin, and Satoshi who's somewhere in between those two.
>>59117194(me)* there are extremely pale people. I didn't mean to type "no".
>>59117181>Also the characters are highly stylized,yeah, to look white and prettyLOL
>>59117190The facial structure is based on cats, not humans.>>59117198No, stylized to have the facial structure of cats. White people don't look like that either.
>>59116428Why would that mean she's not white?
>>59117204Because she's a Japanese girl from Ibaraki prefecture
>>59117208?And where does that fact come from?
>>59117212In the games she's from Hanada City which on the map appears in northeast Kanto between Saitama prefecture and Ibaraki prefecture.You could argue that she's from Saitama instead. A lot of fans argue that Hanada City is based on Kasukabe and it's a fair theory so I'm fine with either. But either way, that still makes her Japanese.
>>59117240>She lives somewhere>THAT MEANS SHE'S JAPANESEI lived in Japan for 10 years. I'm not Japanese.>b-b-but her namePeople who move places permanently often change their names to fit in better to their new home, especially in Asia. Doesn't mean a thing in regards to her race.
>>59117245There is literally nothing in the games to suggest that she came from elsewhere. That is the biggest, nastiest, stinkiest cope that you ever could have pulled out of your ass. Just take the L dude, you know I'm right.
>>59116894There is Japan, China, America, India, and Russia in Pokemon. These are all countries mentioned in game.
>>59117273>countries mentioned in game.post screenshots
>>59117245Misty was born and raised in Japan.
Anime characters if they actually looked japanese instead of white
>MUH MAKE BELIEVE VIDYA MUST PERFECTLY REPRESENT REAL LIFE LOCATIONS AND RACES
>>59117281>JapanEntire region is based on this>ChinaParas/Parasect dex entry>RussiaScientist is sylph co mentions working in a lan deep in Russia >IndiaRaichu dex entryAlso forgot>GuyanaMew is discovered here
>>59117291*Scientist in sylph co mentions working in a lab deep in RussiaFixing that clusterfucknb
>>59117289Correction: Anine characters if they had the facial proportions of humans instead of cats.
>>59117181Your pic is funny because anyone can realize anime characters look closer from the person on the lefft than the gook on the rightI have yet to see any anime characters with the bug eyes of the person on the right
>>591172914 regions, actually
>>59117123Japan has been culturally colonized by America since the end of WW2That's why they started worshipping white people and drawing them in their animeThey even go as far as using tons of English words
>>59117303The image is about skin tones, not facial proportions. Anime characters have the facial proportions of cats, not humans.
>>59117308Man, you know absolutely nothing about Japan lmao.
Realistic japanese characters look fucking grim...I understand why they're rather draw a white guy and call him Takeshi
>>59117202Cope harder
>>59117291you didnt post a single screenshot..
Every third guy in Japan under 40 has his hair dyed either blond, brown or some shit like green. Is it because they want to be white? No, its because they want to stand out in a mass of people where everyone has the same hair colour, around the same height and mostly similar characteristics. Same with Anime. Misty is pretty much 90s Japanese girl core.
>>59117343except Misty is not dyed, she is just like thatjaps just want to be white it seems
>>59117359Nobody respectable wants to be white. I'd rather kill myself than ever be white.
>>59117377>Nobody respectable wants to be whiteThat's because everybody respectable already is
>>59117333Continue being willfully retarded
>>59117378Satoshi Tajiri isn't while you are in a Pokemon board. Go watch Spongebob or something.
them chinks wish they was white
>>59117377I would rather kill myself than be brown
>>59117377>I'd rather kill myself than ever be white.go in front of a train, rakeesh
>>59117450The sun is already doing it for you, Pink.
>>59117487how has there never been a good anti-white "slur"? I figured with non-whites being 90% of the population of the planet y'all'd've figured something out by now.
>>59117545>slurYou are pink.
>>59117450>>59117470Pigskins fuming lmao. You guys had a good run 100 years ago. Its over for your cuck race, wait for Mohammeds and Rajeshs to take over Europe and breed you to extinction.
Imagine thinking anyone from Kanto (not counting Lt. Surge) was white
>>59116428lmao
>>59116428Her voice is cute in the japanese version.
>>59117308>They even go as far as using tons of English wordsEnglish barely has any original words, its an amalgamation of languages
>>59119069So is every language if you go back far enough.
weeb cope
