Why are there so few black women in anime? I can't think of any besides this one.

Because niggers are gross, and don't exist in Japan.

But usually when there's an anime in America they show at least one nigger or two. Why no hot chocolate?

because there arent that many blacks in japan, and its not an important issue to portray blacks in anime. in america, its different. its a larger population, and a good portion of critics and community request it.

its really not that hard to come to that conclusion

Looks more Indian to me. Not just because lack of typical black features, but that particular shade of brown skin makes me think Indian.

One of anime's best features is the ability to make anything perfect. It makes a cramped shithole like Japan look like a magical paradise, makes getting in fights look so cool and badass that it warrants dedicating your entire life to training for something as pointlessly idiotic as beating other people up, and turns the entire female gender into something so impossibly majestic and desirable that those who've seen the light could never settle for even the best that 3D has to offer. If you honestly don't believe anime has the power to turn even niggers into angelic perfection then you've got another thing coming.

I think you're mistaken. I'm surprised that there's as much dark skinned representation as there is, considering about 1%of the Japanese population is black. Have to remember the huge cultural age gap in Japan though. Anime mainly portrays to the younger generation which aren't particularly xenophobic or racist at all. Makes sense anime shows a little more diversity.

Most of it is in Europe but when they are in New York Joseph saves and befriends a black kid.
In Steel Ball Run (also in America) one of the main racers is a lazy nigger and ends up winning the race.

Japanese people get extremely dark if they spend time out in the sun. Like Arab/Indian/North African skintones. It isn't as if they aren't used to it.

Dark skin doesn't always = black.

>>140351968
Also the main antagonist of part 6 (also set in America) Pucci is black.
OP is retarded and a faggot

In the same way that anime girls in general aren't filthy 3DPD hags, they are still black/African/whatever you want to call them, but technically aren't niggers because they are now glorious 2D. Anime has the power to do that.
>>
>>140352003
Never said it did. But if were taking nationality into account in anime how many characters even look Japanese? Anime is an art style which shows a multitude of different character types, regardless if they live in Japan or not. And if we want to get super technical here, although this is 4chan, there are a lot of different types of black people out there. A black can act just like anybody else, it depends on how they were brought up. Dark skin is really the only defining characteristic blacks and brown skinned people have in common. Unless a mangaka or producer wanted to get super technical they could add racial stereotypes to each character, but its fucking anime, none of it is supposed to be an accurate representation of society.

There aren't many non-Japanese in Japan period. That doesn't stop the plethora of white and hafu characters. Plus it's not 1866, Nips are not isolated from the world.

But forget that, why are there so few Koreans in anime?
>>
brown does not equal black
>>
>>140355333
White skin is admired in most cultures. Dark skin on the other hand...
>>
>>140355333
Well think about it, Anime is a huge industry in Japan right, that's shipped all over the world. What countries import anime the most do you think, America, Britain, Germany, maybe Mexico? How many African countries import anime? If your audience is mainly Asian and white, it makes sense to have more white and Asian characters. Same with media in any country you're going to have more characters. that look like your audience than those that don't.
About Koreans that's a good question.
>>
>>140355476
Not white skin you faggot.
Untanned skin and even then that shit is eroding and thank God for that.
