I don't really get tagging anime fics with 'POC' either. I tend to work on the assumption that people who are looking for fics about characters of color are aware that anime exists and that much of it involves Japanese characters living in Japan, so why not just look in the anime section instead of the 'character of color' tag? And if you don't watch anime, then it seems odd to be looking at fics for it. I know people sometimes read stuff for fandoms they aren't in, but even then I'd think someone wanting to read about characters of color would probably have something different in mind than 'stars native Japanese characters living in Japan.' And if they were looking for a new fandom to get into that has characters of color, and knowing, again, that anime often involves Japanese characters in Japan, wouldn't it make more sense to ask for recs somewhere so you can find a series that might fit your tastes?

It gets even sillier and more reaching than that... like this Ranma 1/2 fic I found that was tagged "Disabled Character of Color". Because the protagonist has that ludicrous fear of cats. I'm sure people earnestly searching for stories about disabled POCs would be so pleased with tat particular find.
