white people don't have small noses, giant eyes or candy coloured hair anon. their cartoons, their not meant to look like real life.

>Not trying to start /pol/shit

But at least the pictures ironic right? You don't seriously believe Asians have foreheads that small do you?

They look like aliens

Although I do like it when characters look passably Asian, like Initial D and Psycho Pass.

Japanese artists study off drawing Japanese people for the most part, so if they look western, they're sure taking the long route. But really, they're neither, and people who cherrypick images to compare them are idiots.

You're projecting.
Japanese people see Goku as an asian dude.
Anime characters tend to be drawn ambiguous enough that you can project any ethnicity on them with just a slight change in skin tone.

Naruto the character, despite the name, resembles a white person. So does Chitoge.
>white skin
>blond hair
>blue eyes
>taller than average
They resemble Western people more
>>
One thing I don't understand to this day is why anime/manga artists hate noses so much. Even if it's noticeable, it's of protuberant shape and almost never a droopy asian one(which is present in ancient japanese art nonetheless). Yeah there's some rare mangaka that go for semi-realistic depiction of asians like Punpun guy, but most of them clearly have some complex about their own nose shape.

but naruto looked shi8 m8. Sasuke, regardless of his character, was pretty cool looking. sasuke looked asian by your logic.

>>146495157
Hair and eye color aren't supposed to resemble a specific race in anime or cartoons. They are simply a means of artistic expression.
Marge Simpson is obviously still a white person although she is depicted with blue hair and yellow skin.
How is this so hard to understand for most people?
>>
>>146495316
I agree, Sasuke looks Asian.
>>
>>146494640
Facts can't be racist.

Naruto is extremely Japanese.
Zelda Skyward Sword they had tons of asian facial features.
Akira is another where the characters are extremely Asian in terms of facial features.

Then again, most anime characters are drawn almost without features. Meaning their facial structure is a gigantic wildcard.
>>
>>146495157
>white skin?

Naruto has a rounded face and spiked up hair similar to a lot of japanese fashion, even if your going on height, western cartoon characters tend to look shorter than most anime characters. Kishimoto's mentioned he gave Naruto blonde hair and blue eyes because he thought they look cool. Yeah it's a western feature, he does look white but most of these characters have features that could come from any race under the sun. thats just how 2d works

How is a discussion about the way anime characters look not related to anime?
>>
>>146494640
Those images are made by Koreans, they are like jews of Asia.
>>
>>146495884
It's a b8 topic made by an obviously newfag OP
The thread deserves to get shat on.
Yes art style is related to anime, but someone who doesn't even watch anime, comes to /a/, and makes it about race is not welcome.

>>146493091

I hope you don't actually think like that.

Go take a degree in media studies. The answers is probably in the first one or two modules. Its to do with the simulcra thing.
>>
>>146496008
>D-don't mention race because its a social construct and people might find it offensive
>muh safe space

An anime discussion related to race is still an anime discussion. You wouldn't complain about people talking about cars in an Initial D thread
>>
Nice projection. But you seriously need to fuck off back to lelddit or wherever you came from when mentioning the word "race" in the OP offends you this badly m80.
>>
>>146493091

They're cartoon characters. They generally don't look like real people.

Does this look white to you?

protip: she's korean
