Japanese society is probably set too firmly against street shitting.

Same reason why you can't find any azn character in Bollywood movies even though 5% of their population consists of azns.>>158485322

Honestly, I wonder why no japanese artist had made a manga about the Indian epic, Mahabharata?

Seems like it'd be a pretty damn neat story to illustrate... Although it'd take literally decades to finish it.

The representation of some other country or I don't know ethnicity in a foreign media depends on the diplomatic and cultural relations of the said country with the other. For this reason Americans and Germans enjoy far more representation in anime than the neighbours of Japan.
Now what relation does Japan has with India other than both hating China?
Even then Indians enjoy far more representation in anime than Japanese do in Indian media.
Indians have been main characters (Buddha, Ramayana, etc...), Important side characters(That gay fish anime, probably your source pic, code geass,etc...) and even romantic interests (Even though they are ugly, eg-Mobile Suit Gundam)
Indian media don't even represent their own Asian people in their media even proportional to their population. What makes you think Japanese have to represent Indians?
>>
Yeah I'd love to see it but indians aren't romanticized in the same way white cultures are in japan.
There should be more pretty/idealised indian guys/girls in series though.

We already see a disproportionate amount of indian characters though? There's a ridiculous number of them in anime, because nips have never seen actual indian people and are therefore capable of romanticizing them as beautiful and exotic.
>>
Just wait for berserk to get that far and we can see shit 3D Indians

So many poos on the internet Lord.
This what happens when you let 1 billion niggers into the internet.
At least Chinese were smart and didn't let 1 billion of their niggers into the internet.

Kushans aren't Indians. Kushans are originally Greek nomads from bacteria who then adopted Indian culture.
>>
I don't see how poos are any less represented than any other group. There are probably more poos than spics, honestly.

May as well ask why you don't see any other [insert thing] here in anime.

I said Indians are ugly yet they are romanticized in their depictions in anime.
>>
>>158485229
Indians aren't numerous enough in Japan to need any highlights. But fear not, they are present in culture. Buddhist culture is form India and Japanese anime represents them quite enough.

>>158485229
Wait for Fate/Apocrypha. Albino Karna is in it

Indians are fucking cancer and so are the entire middle eastern race. They have contributed to literally nothing in this world and has only given the rest of world grief with their terrorism and stinky odor.

We should just nuke the entire middle east. Nobody would miss them. Nobody.
>>
>>158486960
Indians are not a race.
So it's not racist.
>>
>>158485229
I think we see more than enough. When a Japanese author wants a brown skinned character for fetishistic reasons and it can't be a dark elf, the main options are a Japanese from Okinawa, an Indian or someone from an unspecified Pacific island. And they are drawn in very flattering styles as well.
>>
>>158487196
There is no such thing as majority in India to begin with.
It's an artificial nation formed by clubbing together many unrelated nationalities and ethnicities. Indians are Indian as some EU supporter calling himself a European first and his nationality second.

Why do Indians smell so bad?

Seriously the moment they enter a room, the room instantly start to smell rotten. Even my brother who showers once a week smells better than Indians.
Is it the curry?

America at least have a unifying language and culture.
India might enjoy a unifying culture(Hindu culture) but it doesn't have a unifying language and still rely in English as lingua franca.

As a proud eastern asian myself, I'm ashamed that those feral middle easterns are also considered "asians"
We need a new name for those monkeys.

>>158486967
Why did you quote two posts that are literally contradicting each other? >>158486914 is saying they're romanticized too much by nips who've never seen them and >>158486870 is saying they aren't romanticized enough

I am the first poster and I was saying that because Indians are hideous so I don't know why you'd accuse me of being one
>>
>>158487324
That explains alot.
>>
>>158485229
Because the Japanese dislike brown people too.
>>
>>158487101
So explain why there are so many manga series set in europe and/or with white characters?
>>158487420
I'm chinese and I like how indians are called asian in first world countries. I mean they ARE in asia and I feel like they've had a huge impact on our identity.

Actual non meme answer is they bathe themselves in scented oil for religious purposes. The smell is very different from what traditional perfumes smell like.

Haha racism is so cool amirite guys? XD

>>158488283
There is no name called pajeet in the Indian subcontinent. It's a made up 4ching name.
The closest word would be Paji which is Punjabi for big brother.
