As far as I'm aware this is a trope in which you've got a "badass" Asian woman with a streak of colour in her hair like it IS definitely a thing
>>
>>80920308
Not all of those fit the "badass/spunky but still nice once you get to know her" personality trope like the ones in OP though.
>>
What character?
>>
You expect animators to make an Asian female character without making her fetish bait?
>>
>>80920308
It's funny, I can't think of any Japanese character from anime that has hair highlights, except for Jolyne Kujo but she's like 1/4 Japanese.

What's up with Asian characters in Western media and hair highlights?

>>implying Blink and Psylocke had any characterization whatsoever
>>implying Somni and Gogo are the same beyond what you literally see in that image
>>implying 6teen should be acknowledged

>>80920275
Its been a thing for a while now. They broke the word "literally" a few years ago.
>>
>>80920470
It's to distinguish them better from your other asian characters. Japan does it with entirely different colored hair instead of streaks is all.

Also denotees "spunkiness" which is basically what most people think makes a good female character.

It's the whitey version of "appeal to the male gaze."

Westerners use hair to visually differentiate people. Asians usually have similar blue-black fine straight hair, so they "all look the same." By colouring the hair, it's an easy/cheap way to be memorable (to whiteys).

This is literally the reason why anime characters have unnatural pastel-coloured hair: the head models are too similar when you're making cartoons in a sweatshop. But this cheap tactic has been around for over a generation, so people forget why it was done in the first place, and now it's "just how it's done" or "traditional" or even "post-modern ironic."

Jessie was Asian, right? She's modeled on the voice actor who played her, who was Asian...so that counts?
