The one I saw said "oriental" I think. Which is even vaguer.

It's trying to communicate that Mikasa has - what WE know to be - Asian features and that the people around her do not. This is sort of a hard thing to do using only fantasy terminology. So even if it breaks immersion what else is he supposed to say to communicate this fact? The only other term I can think of is "mongoloid" and I don't know if that's even understandable (or uh, acceptable) to people.
