sorry, but i cant stop but thinking.

in a faraway future, people from all the countries gather for a space mission. they even have this blondie-italian guy commanding the "europe and africa" unit or wtvr, and the only SLIGHTLY TANNED charaters are the roaches. they look like clay-figures of old african warriors!

it's like an arian invasion against an african kingdom or smthg.

i know this is just some mindless action-scifi chinese cartoon costly made for our sole enjoyment, but wtf.
it really bugs me.

Not being able to see tasteless and pointless gratuitous violence is worse than racism.

Nice.

There is some blatant nationlism later on in the series but Cockroaches=black people never crossed my mind. I did not think the roaches were a portrayal of black people

Wu-Tang Clan ain't nothin' to fuck wit!

But no it isn't really racist, but blacks definitely get no love in the manga. But don't worry the manga is mediocre at best, so even if it offends people it's shit anyway.

You're obviously misinformed. All the shows on this website are Chinese cartoons.

That's only because it's the black peo- I mean the cockroaches being killed. If any humans are being killed, I'm sure that censorship would be back in a flash.

Japanese hate blacks? you don't say.

Maybe if the USA followed Japans example, Detroit and many other places in the USA would still have value.

There's a black guy in the manga who doesn't look anything at all like the roaches.

Spoilers, I guess.

I thought Japan loves black people, they'll all gather around and take pictures of them if one is visiting.

Like most modern forms of casual racism, the intent probably isn't to be outright racist, but certain derogatory attitudes and stereotypes of non-Japanese minorities subconsciously come out in this work.

Any excuse to play the racism card huh.

"Racism" is perfectly natural anyway.

He's in the anime too. No need for spoilers.

The roaches look like they do, because they are meant to look like Homo Erectus to highlight their primitive yet evolving status.
