I'm unsure what this means... is that official artwork? 'Cause they look white to me. But I know America (possibly other countries?) have different ideas than my country.

Late reply is late, but...

Actually it's all due to animation history and some basic human principles.

When you look at anime, most styles can be traced back to Astroboy. Astroboy imitated Western animation, particularly Betty Boop. Therefore we can really say that a lot of the anime visual style can be traced back to an American cartoon of a white woman.

The more general principle is that anime (and cartoon faces in general) are very non-specific. When a face is non-specific, we tend to project ourselves and our own culture onto it. This is why heros/heroines in animated movies tend to have very bland generic faces (so we can project onto them more easily) whereas the villains have a lot more caricature to them.
