Is she right? I mean it's almost 2016
she's right
I wonder if she actually cares or if shes just trying to sound politically correct
All Black Female casting when?
Why does she give a fuck? She's got slanty eyes but she's not Japanese. She should be celebrating Japs getting pushed out of their own works.
>>62743003
Thought the chinks made their own version
Nobody went on a rant against Edge of Tomorrow and that was japanese too
Why does this gets a free pass but everybody loses their shit over Death Note or Ghost in the shell?
who could they even hire if they wanted to do it with japanese actors
none of them speak english
What's the problem? It's a Western adaptation so of course it can change whatever they like. The Japs have already done their own film version.
Do they cast white people in asian adaptations of hollywood films?
Anyway, I don't like anime and stuff but I really enjoyed the live action death note movies.
>>62743052
none of these people actually care
>>62743060
Edge of tomorrow/All You Need is Kill isn't as popular or well known.
>>62743060
Because that series was never popular on /a/
>>62743003
literally no one in chinese cartoons are asian, or else their eyes wouldnt be as big and round as fucking grape fruits
Its funny, cause people will barerly care about that
Its either blacks or no one care
>>62743088
Boy /tv/ sure does talk about black people more than actual black people do.
Now hold on, the people in manga look nothing like asians. It's called mukokuseki, it literally means stateless, as in "nobody". They're supposed to look like people, but not like any certain racial group of people unless stated specifically so. Japanese people look nothing like in Death Note, you might as well cast anyone with pale skin.

kill yourself
>>62743003
I kinda agree. Especially in the upcoming Ghost in the Shell movie where Scarlett "piggu" Johansson is playing the Major.
Then again there's already a japanese live-action version of the Death Note manga and it's shit because Japanese idol culture prevents them from ever spawning decent actors, and us westerners will play an important roll in their replacement.
she's just angry she wasn't cast in it.
>>62743003
Upboated just cause hot asian chick. 99% of them are nneckbasements thinking they'll get sum puss.
Who should they cast as L?
I vote Andrew Garfield.
>>62743003
When do remakes of foreign movies ever keep the race or nationality of the original?
Never. Not when foreign countries remake American movies either.
You guys get outraged at the idea of Spider-man and James Bond being played by non-white actors, and you're going to get mad at this person for this criticism? Way to be consistent
>>62743085
>>62743094
the slants should stop drawing white characters then
>>62743101
Without Scarlett Johansson involved the film was never going to get made. Once she agree it got studio sign-off and funding confirmed.
So either ScarJo and film, or no film at all. Take your pick.

This is true, but doesn't Death Note take place in modern day Japan? Surely its a given that they're Japanese?
The real issue is that there aren't loads of Japanese actors to cast in such a film and using a hodgepodge of asian ethnicities isn't much better than white washing the whole film
No Change location + No Change race = Ok, It's literal translation
>Japanese characters in Japan
Change location + Change race = Ok, it's adapting the story to a new enviroment and the people who live there
>Japanese characters in Japan turned into American characters in America
No Change location + Change race = Wrong, they felt out of place
>American characters in Japan as local Japanese people
Change location + No Change race = Wrong, they felt out of place
>Japanese characters in Germany.
That's all, it's more racist for example the Attack of Titan live action movie with all japanese cast doing germanic roles than a possible Death Note, Ghost in the Shell or Akira movie adapted in New York with american adapted characters for example.
Seriously though, why is Hollywood so anti-Asian? They're pushing blacks pretty hard these days.
>>62743003
Considering how bad these movies usually are I think most Asian actors would be smart to stay away.
They already failed badly by not casting Zac Efron as Light.
If they don't want white people why do they draw them with wide eyes and perfect physiques?
>>62743188

If a majority black country adapted a movie for their majority black audience I really wouldn't give a fuck.I don't even give a fuck about Idris playing Bond. I think it's a decent casting.

It's an asian thing overall, don't be racist saying it's only for chinks and not for japs or yellow monkeys as I call them.
what does the origin of the stories conception have to do with anything.
I suppose an all white cast with japanese names would be strange but I really don't care as long as it's a good adaptation and stays true to the original beats of the manga/anime.

Not really comparable. Attack on Titan is a Japanese-language film. The pool of white people living in Japan who are fluent in Japanese who also happen to have a passable amount of acting talent and enough attractiveness to star in a movie is very, very, very small. You're pretty much asking for the impossible there. But the United States and Canada have a large Asian population to draw from. Just Hollywood's home state of California is 15% Asian, it shouldn't take much effort for them to find Asian actors for these roles.

The problem is Asians have their own independent film industries, they're very successful at it, so liberals feel no guilt whatsoever in westernizing Asian shit. It's basically the same thinking that allows liberals to deny admissions to certain universities to Asians: they're smart, creative, and don't need the white liberal's hand-feeding.
However blacks are like children, can't do anything in film and TV at all without hand-feeding from whites, They're creatively bankrupt and just CAN'T come up with their own sci-fi. fantasy, etc. and are totally dependent on whites to provide for them, so whites for the sake of "fairness" feel this mother-like need to provide for them while attacking anyone who disagrees as racist.
Which is where the difference comes from.
It sounds fucked up but that's the way it is.
>>62743529

Comparatively, asian peoples might have smaller eyes than western peoples, but they are still nothing when compared to anime eyes. There is nothing "white" about anime at all.
The fact that so many of you will vehemently defend this stance is weird, and just goes to show how truly racist some of you really are on the inside.
>>62743604
I agree with this.
The japs had their chance at a live action Deathnote.
>>62743532
Misa was a shit character. I wouldn't mind if they cut her completely.
>>62743060
Complaining about whitewashing in Ghost in the Shell is quite valid, because it's Hong Kong setting in inherently tied to the themes of the film.
Nobody complained about the All You Need is Kill adaption because it's an obscure series, whereas Death Note and Ghost in the Shell are massive internationally recognized franchises.
Also, why the fuck did Hollywood decide to use the name "Edge of Tomorrow?" That's such a lame change. The original title is great.

All anime stars white people. Death Note has blonde haired and brown haired characters. Some have light eyes. These are not Japanese traits.
Look at pic related; only one could arguably be called Japanese.
She's right.
I'm against arbitrary race swaps. I don't like it when they hamfistedly make Characters black and I don't like it when they make characters white
>>62743060
>Nobody went on a rant against Edge of Tomorrow and that was japanese too

also casting an aging Tom Cruise over a fresh recruit really took out the gut punch of dying over and over again

The only one of those girls you have any real argument for is Mugi, and judging by her eyebrows she very likely dyes her hair. Brown and black hair exist naturally in Japan.

Americans are this stupid.
Black leads for black people.
Asian leads for asian people.
White leads for everyone.
Casting people specifically because of their race is racist a fuck.
Also, most Americans know jack shit about Japanese culture. Why the hell would a director incorporate a culture that they don't even understand into an adaption aimed at western audiences? Hell, Japanese culture isn't even an integral part of Death Note.
As if fucking Japan hasn't adapted things and changed shit to fit to their customs. I mean, the other year, some Japanese director remade Unforgiven for fuck sake, and NO one white about them yellowing it up. And if they did, they'd be RACIST.
>>62743705

This is the result of yankee rape.
>Death Note and Ghost in the Shell are massive internationally recognized franchises
and Americans who don't watch anime still have no idea what either show is
Until there's a significantly larger pool of Asian actors recognizable in the US, Hollywood is going to whitewash any anime property they decide to adapt.
Shinigami (æ»ç¥ž?, "death god" or "death spirit") are gods or supernatural spirits that invite humans toward death, and can be seen to be present in certain aspects of Japanese religion and culture.
It's like Idris Elba playing a nordic god
>>62743838
Um, Japan isn't the only culture that has supposed beings like that retard. Ever heard of the Grim Reaper? All they gotta do is change the Shinigami to Grim Reapers. Problem solved.
>>62743827
Like I said, it's the only one you have any argument for. The other ones are asian and look asian to me, an asian. The way we see anime characters is completely out of our control, everyone is naturally racist towards seeing their own race.

The Human Torch, Felix Leiter, Ms. Moneypenny, Perry White, Jimmy Olsen, Heimdall, Aquaman, The entire cast of Annie, the entire cast of the Honeymooners, Dr. Loomis, The Equalizer, Nick Fury, Will Smith's character in I Am Legend, Deadshot, The Karate Kid, etc. etc.
In comics, they've changed Spider-Man, Captain America, and others from white to black.
Liberals completely overlook all of this, because they have mental problems.
Wasn't attack on titan piss-washed though?

The japanese version has all japanese actors. If they are going to make an American version then of course they are going to replace them with American actors.

Drawing a stick figure of a white person will be very simplistic with very little distinctive features as opposed to drawing an asian face which will most likely have slant eyes as this thread has evidently proven. In Japan it's different since they're the simplicity so they will see themselves as distinctive-less. White stereotypes in Japan are portrayed as having blue eyes, blonde hair, and distinctive noses.
This is how the Japanese draw Americans.

well there already IS an all Japanese version, plus its a little hypocritical to be be mad about race shifting when its non-white to white but its all good when a white character is being made non-white
>>62743604
Asains do that to our films too so idc
>>62743604
this desu

>In Japan it's different since they're the simplicity so they will see themselves as distinctive-less.
The reason you consider whites to have little distinctive features is because they are the norm in the west. There is nothing distinctive about the average.

Urasawa draws ethnically distinct characters in all his manga
>>62743003
But aren't anime characters drawn white? I get that they're Japanese, but artists prefer them to be white.

Peter Parker is alive and kicking, in an alternate universe Peter died and was succeeded by nigger-man who was added to the main universe a couple of weeks ago. Peter is still alive and the main spider-man. There's also already like 7 other different Spider-men running around, including an indian and british spider-man in the new Web Warriors ongoing (both from alternate universes)
Cap's super-soldier serum stopped working so he got old and he's now purely a leader/strategist, Falcon (his longest partner and best friend) took over, they fucking hate each other right now and even in the comics a lot of bystanders go "Not my cap".
>JUST BECAUSE IT'S ANIME MEANS ALL THE CHARACTERS ARE ASIAN!
Wrong. Why would anyone cast Asians in a work of fiction where you can have literally any race of people as characters?
And remake your own fucking movies, you chink cunt. Hollywood isn't going to cast Asians because they're ugly and box-office poison.
Hiroyuki Sanada is a notable exception. He's awesome as fuck.

I'm ok with this sterotype.
Only low iq /v/editors seem to think so
if they cast a Hollywood film with an all Asian cast it would bomb horribly, everyone would think it was some foreign film
sad, but true

How and why are people attributing this to liberals? It doesn't seem like something liberals are happy with? Why is /tv/ so fucking retarded?
>>62743302
Mello, Near and people involved with the investigation especially aftern L's death are European.
Light, the police investigation team, Misa and most minor characters are Japanese.
Don't even remember what L was supposed to be but put Ben Whishaw in the role and I can see it working. Don't know who is actually playing the part though.
The Japanese design all of their characters to look white, so no. They want this.
>>62747332
L was definitely Japanese, his looks and personality were taken from the woman who wrote Death Note.
>Korean
>Getting mad for Japanese people
Even Asians can't tell each other apart.
>>62743003
There's already the Japanese Deathnote movies. Now Hollywood needs it's own white version. Big surprise huh?
As an Asian-American male, I say this bitch needs to shut up.
>>62743350
They ARE stateless, because the same could been about a county in America or Britain or Russia.
Now, if the plot is intertwined with Japanese culture and beliefs, then it's shit to whitewash it
Why are people mad that most actors and actresses in America are white?
Most people in America are white. I'm betting most people on Nigerian TV are black. Is that raycis too?
>>62747363
Seriously though, what the fuck?
And there was already a Japanese movie anyways. Hollywood has nothing to do with Japan, hence the word "adaption".
The Japanese live action Death Note was atrocious.
I don't see how this will be better.
>>62743003
>western cinema has stolen japanese stories and remade the with white characters for ages
>only now is it considered wrong
>>62748142
If I remember correctly "A Fistful of Dollars" was a pretty big deal back in the day.
>>62743003
Well, maybe if they didn't design their anime/manga characters with round eyes and brown/blonde/red hair, people wouldn't get so confused.
Really, fuck you. The characters are white. Same with the last airbender.
>>62743094
someone post the image of the asianized Death Note character drawings
>>62748365
Well, except for the water tribe, which even then had completley Caucasian features aside from the tan skin
The japs didnt cast any german for their shit live movie of Attack on Titan
>>62743562
Wat
>>62743040
I agree but the main demographic in the west is white people, so it makes sense. It's not like they're saying "asians aren't good enough for the role", it's that they're saying "white people will be able to self insert or become more invested if the main cast is the same race as them"
>>62743052
she cares. if there's anything social media like twitter and youtube have proven it's that asian women fucking hate white men. look at the woman who founded kickstartr or the bitch who got canned from leddit.
>>62743204
anyone who complains about best adaptation are plebeians of the highest magnitude.
>>62743542
it's called Liberal Fascism.
>>62743003
NO Japan already made at least two death note movies.

Big difference between re-making 7 Samurai with white samurai....in Japan, vs. taking the concept and turning them into guns for hire in the old west of the U.S., starring whites and hispanics.
The same thing applies with Death Note.
I can see them re-writing the story to have a similar concept with whites in the U.S., but to basically re-make the Japanese films that have already been made, IN Japan, using whites, is just fucking stupid.
I don't want to watch white "samurai", or black "knights in armor", or Japanese "Romans", because it looks stupid, out of place, and is clearly designed to force a political agenda at the expense of intelligent casting and writing.
Death Note is a Japanese story, set in Japan, and should be cast with Japanese / Asian actors. Period.
>>62748707
Do you think that's not true?
What a dumb ass.
If the original for asians already has asians in it, I dont see why the white version shouldnt have whites in it. Its about the target audience. People seem to be getting more and more stupid.
>>62743003
She's right but I'm more likely to go see a movie in English with a bunch of whites people than a Japanese chink movie.
>>62748792
Didn't mean to upset you, buddy, you keep on believing whatever you want.
>Japan makes movies featuring Japanese people
>Africans make movies featuring blacks
>Indians make movies featuring Indians
Where's the outrage?
>>62743003
Japanese are honerary White, its not racist to replace White people with different White people
Why do people want Death Note/Evangelion/Akira live action films? There is a 0% chance of them being good.

Why is it a point bitching about? Not only are there three movies already in Japan but there's also a television show coming out about it soon if it's not out already. This is bullshit.
If the film takes place in america like old boy, is it still racist. There is already a japanese death note film
>>62743003
is an adaptation like the Japanese Spider-Man (who is better by the way)
fuck this cry babies

There are many Jews in US. They breed to look white, but their Jewish face is noticeable underneath.
