Yes.  Only America makes a stink.  Japanese anime characters are diverse.  Even those with Japanese names who speak Japanese are different skin, hair and eye colors.  And, depending on the story, could be native Japanese, or people living in Japan.

Most people could care less how a character is colored   Its fantasy, its anime.  They enjoy the character as a person in the story or game 

Exactly! Why are people hung up on skin color? Its anime! It doesnt matter.

OH just screw off with this. I hate the SJW outrage internet. Go to any surfing/watersports town in Japan and you’ll notice Japanese tan too. The colour difference here could literally be the different between summer and winter for some people. Anyone who takes anime character design this seriously is just absurd. How…

Both of those pictures are easily within the range of Japanese skin tones.  People need to go find themselves a real issue to be outraged about.

Fixed your headline:

The ones crying whitewashing are the only racists here. Racism requires malicious intent and it seems like everyone forgets this. The only malicious thing I see here are a bunch of people pushing their blind ideals onto a culture that they know little to nothing about.

So tired of your racist woke takes. Yes, she appears less tan in one image than the other. Could be different lighting. Could be different studios using different pallets. Could even be one pic from summer and one from winter. My wife is egyptian, she goes from dark brown in summer to full-on caucasian white in…

Yeah definitely kinda reaching here. It’s clearly just the animation style and the fact that you don’t see her next to any other human people in the images. Maybe take the time to compare side-by-side images of her vs any of the “white” characters in the anime and you’ll see that she is clearly darker.

Also for the…

She’s white in both.

3, especially.

H Christ.

I can not find it in me to be outraged on this topic. Most anime characters look white anyway. Not to mention that the difference between caucasian and asian skin tones is at times nonexistent.

Good Lord yes compared to say Americans.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA SHUT THE HELL UP WITH THIS CRAP

So is it black washing when they make a white character African? Is it yellow washing when they make a white character Asian? Is it brown washing when they make a white character Muslim? Is it white out when they recast a white character with another white person?

Seriously, if you can take white out of the sentence…

how do you white wash an Asian?

I don’t see a difference

Idiocy of the highest order.

Time to get angry and tweet on social media. Rage on! FIGHT!
