Stop pretending to NOT be racist when you clearly are. It's ok to admit to it on an anonymous message board. Your secret will be safe with us ;)
>>
I love how threads like these. It's the perfect confluence of stereotypical nerdy bullshit, it's the average /v/ poster, relatively new to the site, who goes to all the big boards on the site and shits them all up equally with his narrow knowledge and experience with various artistic mediums. He knows mainstream video games, he knows mainstream anime, he knows mainstream cartoons (especially those from the 90s and early 00s), and he knows only the biggest comic book characters. And he feels marginalized by society because of how much of a shut in he is, so he'll have the most shallow /pol/ opinions and tastes. He'll prattle on endlessly about cucks and interracial porn, but he isn't informed or even cares about international political issues and happenings. It's just a slight veneer of racism and misogyny and the rejection of anything that could be considered "degenerate."

And the cross poster signals all of this to his other cross posters with the word "kino." It's like those hobo chalk signs. You slap it on a thread so other cross posters know it's safe to come out of the woodwork.

It's like a sociological study seeing these threads.

This is retarded on so many levels, primarily because it ruins the iconic look of L, as a pale, insomniac freak. It helps set L apart from the rest of the task force, and establish him as a outsider and odd ball.

This is the one thing they chose to keep from the adaptation?

When will people understand you can't adapt weird anime postures into real life. ,It's like internet humor, the moment you speak of it in words it loses all meaning, only cringe is left.

Frankly I'm happy with white/black washing anime characters because only about 5% of anime characters are actually asian (as in actually drawn to appear asian and not caucasian or westerner) but this shit riles me up.

Just for the sake of argument: Wouldn't you be pissed if they released something like "Luke Cage" with a white actor playing the title role? Why? The character doesn't HAVE to be black. He could be a white guy who lives in Harlem and wants to protect his friends & his neighborhood. That shouldn't be an issue either, right?

The intelligent black man is the NEET's arch-nemesis

His skin tone is a character trait, that has nothing to do with characterization. Him being a black dude doesn't mean he's now suddenly stupid and he can't do detective stuff. Stop grasping at straws already, bubba.

Exactly. The original L is supposed to be a weird, almost goblin like kind of man. He is a stark contrast to someone like Light, who looks normal in comparison, and has enough charisma to rope people into his horrifying plans.
>>
>>84646832
Light works better as someone who was ALWAYS a pompous asshole. The new series will make it out like he was a good person in the beginning which is overplayed at this point. The best aspect of death note has always been that you're not sure who you should be rooting for, and the Netflix series is going to fuck that up.

>>
>>84646926
L is supposed to look like an insomniac freak with very pale skin due to his shut-in nature.

The people who casted L basically made it much more difficult to define his character. Nothing wrong with that if the writers and actor can convey the character without the visual assistance, but that's easier said than done.

There's also the fact that it's obvious race baiting for the sake of controversy. There's very little chance the person they got was the best candidate, but he's black so it sells. It distracts from the actual show.

You're here doing the same thing except with the opposite opinion. I don't think making a character black is a front to the character, especially not one whose race has no significance to the character.

You're saying that an American born super-investigator shouldn't be black because you hate black people or because you care about the integrity of a japanese cartoon. If the latter is the case then I'm fucking dying considering how racists always cry about how "liberals" complain about white-washing foreign characters.

>I don't think making a character black is a front to the character, especially not one whose race has no significance to the character.
Yeah because you're black and you don't care about affirmative action being the priority over talent and honoring the story.

>considering how racists always cry about how "liberals" complain about white-washing foreign characters.
The only time I've ever seen this happen was when scarjo was casted for GitS, which was fine because the character of motoko is a japanese woman in a shell of a blue eyed white woman, and also when retarded black people think ancient egyptians should be black, otherwise I'd prefer they were the fucking race they originally were.

How does he dishonor the story? So you know the actor is terrible because he's black? Affirmative action is about correcting discrimination, so at least you're willing to admit that black actors are systematically discriminated against.

How is this similar to ancient Egyptians being black? You're comparing a civilization of people to a cartoon character. L's skin isn't a point of historical contention. It's insignificant except to people who are obsessed with race.

Are there no asians in america or something? Asians are severely underrepresented in television and film and a Japanese work should have asians portraying asian characters, racist.

Two things.
One, I never said it was irrelevant to me. I'm pretty passionate about this, both because I love the source material + I want the movie to be a good adaptation, and because I'm not racist.
Two, I haven't spent a lot of time defending it. I just hopped onto this thread, which means that there are several other people who agree that the L casting decision is the least of this film's problems and have been arguing against you.
I honestly am baffled why so many people on this site are so upset that L was cast with a black person. I guess when it comes down to it, it really does stem from the racist, bigoted roots many people on this site come from.
You won't get any more (You)s out of me. Just... try to think outside of yourself.

yet you don't care about it getting semi-accurate casting, huh.

L wasn't Asian, he was a quarter Japanese, a quarter English, a quarter Russian, and a quarter Irish. He was more white, if not simply "multirace". Because of that, and because this adaptation will take on the semographics of the Pacific Northwest, it makes perfect sense that L would be black.

Do your research, racist. If anything, Light should have been Asian, but even then because they're using American demographics white is a better fit.

Like I said, multirace, foreign, unlike the majority race in that setting. White in a Japanese setting, black in an American one. Pretty fucking obvious

>>84653964
What kind of fucking idiot logic is this? Why not hispanic or asian or native american then?

Because what difference does it make? You're essentially saying that any race works for the role, which isn't inaccurate. I would have been happy if he was hispanic, or Asian. Native American doesn't work as well due to the fact that they aren't necessarily seen as foreign and because they originate from the US itself. L is an international detective. This is why black or white or Asian or Hispanic works.

I'm not arguing that black was the best race decision. I'm arguing that it's a fair choice, and still works with the character. So far no one has disproved that except for racist and shallow remarks.
>"He's not pale though!"
Give me a break. With the way he acts and the bags under his eyes, visually he still represents L.

Lights race doesn't matter. He works better as a preppy, attractive, and charismatic person but what matters most is his God complex. As long as he's outwardly likable he works (which is argue the Netflix series fucked up, as their Light seems like a loser).

L's race matters because he's supposed to look like a shut-in, pale faced creep. Now these traits could be conveyed by a good writer or goof actor without the use of costume/makeup, but with the material they're working with I have my doubts. That's why I thinking casting L as black was a really bad decision.

It's also very obviously a diversity hire which to a normal viewer will probably be more of a distraction. Its probably very likely that they passed on a better actor of a different race just because he wasn't black.

Because if your awful argument is that he should be foreign, then he should be asian. African-American in America isn't foreign.
>>
>>84654135
Yet you can't disprove what I'm saying. Funny.
>>
>>84654160
There are Asian Americans.
>>
>>84654236
And? They are still seen as more foreign than fucking african americans.
>>
>>84650660

>that's because Japan doesn't give a fuck about race

Gee maybe because the population is 99% Japanese.
>>
>>84654236
So cast an actual Japanese actor?

>he's originally multiethnic asian-white and it's set in america and he should be seen as foreign
>so it's fine he's african-american
>>
>>84654268
That's totally subjective. The fact that even now, on this board, people are far more racist and unaccepting of black people over Asians is proof of the "outsider" outlook people have of black people. That suits L exceedingly well.
The underlying racism of the argument against L being black is what undermines the argument itself.

No, it's not.

Yeah, okay. This board, and the people on it, are racist. Any conversation about race is biased. You have a skewed outlook on casting, and therefore you are unable to have educated conversation about it. That's too bad. I'm done here.

Are they actively trying to ruin the franchise? What the fuck are they thinking? Aside from L being a nigger that completely ruins my suspension of disbelief since niggers aren't usually above 90 IQ, he doesn't even act like L at all. The only part that is somewhat similiar to L is the squatting, but that ironic because the squatting looks ridiculous in live action.

And Light... where do we go from here? His character seems to be even worse than L. He is ugly, uncharismatic, emotional (wtf?), romantic (??????????), bullied (what?). Light is quite literally none of these things. He is apathetic, highly confident, pretty much the perfect student, depressed, sociopathic (he doesn't care about anyone else but him.), beautiful, cunning and manipulative. None of these things are present in the movie version. He looks like a complete wimp

How Jewish can Netflix get?

It's almost like people don't get that translating the characters from the anime to live action would not work at all... Seriously, rewatch the fuckin series and imagine real life characters doing what the anime charters say / do. It would be complete trash and wouldn't be grounded in the slightest. Fucking weebs are even infecting normies these days.
The trailer was expertly made imo, Ill wait to see the movie before I have a strong opinion either way.

How much you want to bet L tries to save Light at the end, but Light dies in the process of trying to take someone hostage or something.
