15. [SPOILERS for Shingeki No Kyojin / Attack On Titan]

This so much, so hard and so many times.

Marry me OP.

[kaijinscendre]

Nope. They are Japanese. They look white to you because you are very Eurocentric. However, to Japanese people they look Japanese. This pops up all the time with Eurocentric people who don't understand how other cultures may view their own art.

Edit: Article explaining http://kotaku.com/5627268/why-do-japanese-characters-look-white

[(Anonymous)]

Isn't Mikasa the only one who's actually from an Asian country, though?

[(Anonymous)]

No, they're white. Look at those white first and last names! Eren is German, Levi and Jean are French, Armin is Norwegian or something, etc. Only Mikasa is Japanese.

[(Anonymous)]

as a non-white person sometimes it makes me cringe how much sjws miss the point

[ill_omened]

Mikasa is white



Edit: I am illiterate, disregard

[(Anonymous)]

Are the characters confirmed European?

With anime, it's wise to assume Japanese until proven otherwise.

[(Anonymous)]

If genderswapping is generally considered ok in fanart I don't see why race-swapping would be any worse. Just let them imagine, who gives a shit

[(Anonymous)]

I think it's one thing to see official art of a character and interpret them to be a difference race, just going off of their physical features/skin tone/name/whatever. Harmless enough. But if you're doing it just for the sake of being "inclusive" it's kind of silly and weak.

[(Anonymous)]

"sometimes white dominated societies exist for a reason".

What are you even saying there? I'm legitly asking, BTW.

[dethtoll]

Never quite understood why people complain about white folk in Japanese media.

[(Anonymous)]

Some people can take it too far and act like their view is the only right one, but sometimes they "give characters brown skin" just because they like the aesthetics, just for fun. Is that really so bad?

[(Anonymous)]

I don't care if people raceswap for their own amusement or peace of mind or whatever. People can do what they want, and I can understand just sitting down one day and imagining what if so-and-so had been Asian. It's harmless.

It's when people start feeling superior about this and claiming that their interpretations are better than canon that I start to rolling my eyes. It's kind of insulting to the author.

[(Anonymous)]

At first I was going to get mad, but I think you deserve a fist bump instead, OP. Why in the fuck people need to do this is beyond me.

[naoto_fuyumine]

I personally don't mind the race swaps, even if not all of them look good to me. Others, though are pretty cool. I really Eren with darker skin for example. I guess it's not even that off given that his name is Turkish.

[(Anonymous)]

Go fuck yourself.

[(Anonymous)]

I really don't see the point in raceswapping/genderswapping/what have you. It's not like it's giving you any actual representation because it's not changing anything about the canon itself. If what you're looking for is representation, then... what's the point?

[world_eater]

Look, I don't give a cow's ass about the diversity of the cast, but I really don't see why you're so fucking angry about people drawing the characters how they like. Why does it have to solve a problem? Can't it just look pretty and make people happy that like that stuff?

[(Anonymous)]

OP should have clarified that many artists get anon hate on tumblr if they dare to make Eren, Marco, Berthold and several others white.

inb4 Eren is a Turkish name HAVE YOU PEOPLE EVER BEEN TO TURKEY, THEY ARE FROM PALE TO MILDLY TAN

[(Anonymous)]

White people are horrible, no doubt.

[(Anonymous)]

Confused as to what the spoiler is.

[(Anonymous)]

When people draw Mikasa darker~

Oh, I guess that makes her more Asian somehow... rme

[firstmoonie]

Eren isn't white, he's at least half Turkish

[(Anonymous)]

I think it's funny how you can declare someone 'pathetic' just because they might draw something differently even though it might look really fucking cool anyway. But, isn't race supposed to not matter..or does it because you're racist? Welp, I think I know the ones who is pathetic here, LOL.
