(Same anon because I forgot: there was discussion even back in the days about Barrett being a racist stereotype so I feel like maybe they have been actively avoiding racial matters entirely so as to not inadvertently offend any players. Which seems valid, if sad that this is the current state of the world.)

The whiteness of some of the characters could be argued to be mukokuseki, but that argument might be splitting hairs honestly. So I get what you’re saying. And I agree.

As an aside, I do understand the people that consider Barrett a racist stereotype, but I always liked him as a character anyways. There was also Sazh from FF XIII off the top of my head, so at least SquareEnix didn’t completely avoid having any black characters or a multiracial cast after the reception to Barrett. Sazh deserved to be in better games than the XIII games though.

AYRT - Ohh, so there is a name for that thing they do in anime! Yes, that's what I meant. Thanks for teaching me!

Hmm, no experience with FFXIII here, but I have always loved Barrett. He is a hardworking and nice person, and his whole relationship with Marlene arc is particularly endearing, if heartwrenching. Although I can see where the complaints come from, because he is quite stereotypical in (physical) presentation I feel like his actual personality subverts prejudiced stereotypes rather than endorses them. It's a pity his outward presentation is deserving of the criticism because otherwise I think he is good representation.

No problem!

Couldn’t agree more about Barrett! He’s an amazing character!
