DM: here's a hugely detailed world with tons of different humanoid species, races, groups and cultures all of which dont exist in reality, none of which are modern japan and are complex and complicated in their own, different, unexpected, fantasy ways

OP: conventional real world japanese beauty standards and race relations in 2024 tho. what about those? gotcha

DM: um

Yeaaah... of all the series to try to impose real world modern culture stuff onto fantasy with, Dungeon Meshi is the wrong one.

Aside from the one that is very clearly based on feudal Japan, but ok.

I was going to say. Yes, most of it is pure fantasy, but the Eastern Archipelago is very, very obviously meant to be a fantasy version of feudal Japan.

Pretty sure we don't have the average feudal Japanese man's opinion of fat white ladies, though.

So what's OP's claim based on?

He can't be into her because she doesn't have the traditional white face / red lips / pitch black teeth like a real feudal Japanese beauty would?

Well in that case it’s hard to believe he’d be into any white woman, so you should reject canon as well.

Massively late to this party but, as with many pre-modern societies, feudal Japanese aesthetics were inclined to robust figures. Literature from that era straight up waxes poetic about beautiful court ladies' double chins.
