Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

Saw a white Blade this weekend. Not cool.

Did they do black face? If not, don't care.

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

Don't do black face or brown face or any other type of gross racial charicatures. Other than that I don't really care? Most white anime cosplayers are cosplaying poc.

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

You can only get away with black or brownface if you are a kigurumi cosplayer.

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

aren't kigurumis just those cutsey oversized hooded onesies? Why would that involve blackface ever?

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

Nah, there is the full face mask character version too.

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

wait I am confused

The only kigurumis I usually see are like... animal based. When I google image search it that seems to be the same result. Is there another meaning of the term I am not familiar with? How does this connect with black face?

Oooh the weird creepy anime suit people

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

Yawn.

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

Not cool. Hot.

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

So, wait, are white people not allowed to cosplay anime characters, most of whom are Japanese? Where's the line of "not cool"?

Not that I give a shit either way. They can do them, whatever floats their boat. I have no right to police that or any other cosplay--and neither do you.

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

Japanese characters are usually made as white as Japanesely possibly to make sure they don't get mistaken for Ainu or Okinawan.

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

Oh no time for this wank bait again

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

So? That doesn't answer the question as to where the line is. Is it "cultural appropriation" or not?

IMO, there shouldn't be a damn line. Let people cosplay who they want to cosplay and stop griefing them for the characters they love.

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

anime characters don't look Japanese. Of course I've never seen any white people who look like that either.

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

Sounds cool.

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

Uh... but wasn'the the original blade white? He popped up once in a spiderman tv series and I was pretty surprised he wasn't black bUT apparently it's just the casting for the live action movies.

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

Massive fuckin shrug on my end. No one is ever going to look exactly like the character they're cosplaying, and cosplay is for fun/admiration of the character you like so much. Anyone can cosplay anyone. Period. This means white Blade, black Sailor Moon, fat Wonder Woman, skinny Ursula, etc., etc. are all fine. Everyone should just have fun!

Re: Thoughts on whites completing PoCs?

[(Anonymous)]

Don't care so long as they can act. I feel the same in reverse too.
