Am I the only one bothered by the fact that the creators gave the Samurai YELLOW SKIN, being an Asian? That's kind of racist, and then even more racist to suddenly whitewash him in the newest season. Why didn't they give him a model respectful to Asian culture and physiognomy instead of based through the lenses of caucasian animators...

Colorblind much?

>>90717058
he became whiter in s5 because he lived in the future for the past 50 years, you can see it in the very EP he has the yellow skin
>>
nice bait
>>
>>90717288
I mean in his flashback where he lost his sword
>>
>>90717288
Wow so the authors are saying that Asians can evolve into white people if given enough time? That's even more racist!
>>
>>90717058
Jack's right arm is SO fucked up in that drawing, it's hilarious
>>
>Am I the only one bothered

Hopefully. You can fuck off back to Tumblr now.

>>90717058
Sod off lad, I'm purebreed chinaman and I ain't bothered.

>>90717392
They also suggest bugs and gays will evolve into robots.

>>90717058
Post a picture of a color which in your opinion would fit this particular Asian character best so we can judge it or shut up.

His skin color was never consistent in the original series. It changed based on the other colors used in the episode.

Here's another one from the same episode. Since most of this scene is gold, his skin is more yellow to compliment it.
>>
>>90717516
I can see how it happens, though. They're used to the robe hiding things so they can pose the hand/sword to create a certain line of action rather than to create a natural anatomy. Then they tear up his shit and forget to rethink their poses.

As you can see in this shot, they're doing the same thing by making his skin look a similar color to the ground near his feet. He's also overall paler in general to contrast with his dark outfit. (and probably to make him look drained)

>Am I the only one bothered by the fact that the creators gave the Samurai YELLOW SKIN
Probably.
>>
>>90717058

Never thought about it until you mentioned it, and now that I know it still doesn't bother me
>>
>>90717288
It probably has more to do with the fact that he's mostly covered in armor from head to toe all the time + he's paler from all the stress and trauma

Normally I don't give a damn about the whole cis-white-waahwahh-argument crap but this is one thing I'm really tired of. White folks acting offended for asians.

Growing up in a Japanese household, NOBODY BUT YOU GIVES A DAMN. It is not on the same damn level as blackface racism.

it's bait

I know you're trolling, but please explain?
>>
>>90717058

I wonder what japans opinion on samurai jack? Maybe someone could hop over to 2ch and ask?
>>
>>90720520
I'm pretty sure you can't post on 2ch unless you have a Japanese IP, so we'd need a /co/mrade who's currently in Japan.
>>
>>90720520
>>90720595
I have an idea! Let's ask TMS shill!
>>
>>90720595

There are weeb anons posting there and some westaboo nips posting here.
>>
>>90717392
wow fuck off and stop baiting
>>
I'm an accredited chinaman and I'm not bothered. Unlike blacks and browns that are ashamed of their skin color and whine about it all the time, we yellows don't actually give a fuck.
>>
>>90717392
>>90717058
who said japanese people look yellowish? they more white then ever
>>
UGGHHHHH... This show is SO problematic...

Stop using this word this way, it's fucking retarded.

Eh, usually it's whites whining about skin color.
