Re: "Mentally whitewashing" anime?

I do sometimes forget that some characters in the text are very Japanese and not just like my own family, but that may be kind of the point of a lot of manga art.

That said, I'm not a racial realist. I can identify with characters of a variety of backgrounds without having to remember that I am on one side of an imaginary line and they on the other.

It must be hell for some people, reading books set in Africa and having to remember that everybody is a "savage Negro," or watching movies set in Latin America and being unable to tell all the Hispanics apart because their sheer Latinness is so overwhelming.
