@@BradLad56 Well I think the intended audiences for each anime/manga are probably based more on age and gender rather than ethnicity. People of all colors love anime.

@@franksterjv They don't have to sprinkle in anything because there's nothing wrong with it lacking skin tone variety since it's primarily made for the Japanese,, not black people, not white people, not latinos etc. If they put other ethnicities in their works, that's up to them but don't expect it just because you want it dude.

Issac from Castlevania is a great example of how great black representation is done, Powerful, has great lines is part of the bigger story and not just some side character and All people(Black,White,Men/Women,Asian etc) can resonate with his views on life and his growth as a person.
What about Killer B, A, and Darui from Naruto. Mirko and Rock Lock from MHA. And Ogun Montgomery from Fire Force. Also I'm Happy seeing Good Black Characters in Anime. I wish we could also get to see Hispanic Characters in Anime too. I'm Hispanic BTW and the only cool Hispanic characters I seen in Anime are David Martinez from Cyberpunk: Edgerunner and Chad from Bleach
When talking about this topic, people tend to forget about a certain black protagonist in a 2003 short anime from the Matrix universe, who can run so fast until his leg muscles explodes while also beating his own RECORD. Afro Samurai came out in 2007.
@@JetTheProphetAcnologia should make your next list. He's one of the strongest black characters in all of anime. Search up Charon and Ogun (both from Fire Force same maker as Soul Reaper).
I just randomly came across the vid for background noise and completely got got blind sided by just over looking Dutch and the actual racism he experienced in a episode that you showed clips from
I dont rlly mind animes not putting black characters in animes, but when they do and we're represented well i appreciate it so muchh🥲🥲💗 Another one of my favs that isnt mentioned here is carole from carole and tuesday
I noticed that you like Eden Zero so just wanted to add that the author of Eden Zero has made a new manga called Dead Rock starring a black lead called Yakuto.
Other day friend told me yoruichi isn’t black and it really made me think who in anime even is black and it’s making me realise we really don’t get a lot of representation ofc they’re japanese people and they don’t need to but now I’m gonna definitely try to support the mangaka that do research on our culture and give us character as cool as afro samurai also mirko isn’t black either wow 😔
I’ve heard Shinichiro Watanabe has black characters in the anime he makes. Most of his series are original projects. It is intentional for him. Anime like Bebop, Michiko to Hatchin, and one of his more recents from 2019 is Carole & Tuesday. Afro Samurai as well. Black Lagoon has a lot of international characters so that one looks seems intentional as well.
Japanese artists need to take advantage. We black people love anime alot, they would make so much more money and add new fans. As long as they do it right they can rake my money 💵✊🏿
So there's actually a trope in anime where characters with purple hair and dark skin are Indian. One of the most famous examples is Soma from black butler
Please produce more content like this! I would love to see more takes on this subject because I've been searching lately for references and your work has inspired me for the longest time to include more African and African American characters into my stories :D) However, I wasn't able to find too many references on TH-cam for character building and design for these specific characters. 😞 I would love to see you cover some examples of design for black characters that you enjoy; hair, features, clothing (for female and male characters alike! I mostly do female characters, but an even spread would be lovely as well ^^); as well as examples of your favorite storylines for black characters! (Or things that motivate them, their ambitions, their personality, etc.) It would truly be wonderful and an honor if you could go in depth about these! This would mean a lot to me, as it would help me write a part of my storyline and write better characters :D) Spoiler warning is ok too! I don't have too much time to watch to anime, so I would love to see your in-depth breakdown and analysis, it would help me with my work a lot! Thank you if you read this, I truly appreciate what you do and I enjoy how you explain and break down characters, as well as your reverence for works with examples of good characters.

Bro forgot Acnologia ,Briar of Avatar from Fairy Tail, Sibir from Edens Zero and Mr PoPo from Dragon ball Z😶Also there are bad ass black female in Radiant👀
I would say that Orga from Ironblood Orphan is my favorite black character ever! I am not really a fan of Samurai. But.... Although small roles.... The black characters from Sword Art Online and towards the end of Psycho Pass were really good. And of course, Canary from Hunter Hunter can hold her own.
I'm not even black, but as a brown South Asian guy I love good black/dark skinned characters in anime media Out of the ones here Yoruichi and Nessa are my fave girls ❤
So we no going to talk about the main character from kiba. Who is clear the first black main character we all have ever seen. Although we thought it was a cartoon, back in the day. But it is an anime. 90s kids would know. Came Cartoon Network . Back when toonami was on in the daytime. Zed was his name
Over time, Japanese cartoons are getting better about their portrayal of not just Black characters, but also Chinese characters. I'm half Japanese. If you're Japanese, Korean, or Chinese-American, you probably spent a lot of time cringing at how each of those nations portray people from the other two nations in popular media, and I really hated a lot of the "magic negro" stuff anime did with the portrayal of Chinese characters. Thankfully, in recent decades, anime has been getting better about the portrayal of Chinese characters as well as Black characters. Little by little, right?
no point in arguing yoruichi isn't black like whats the point. She was born in a fictional place so technically she has no worldly ethnicity. Some people argue that we see a black woman in bleach with jackie that proves that yoruichi isn't but mila-rose is also black. Black people don't all got one set of facial features. And the names don't mean shit cause shunsui is supposed be italian or something no japanese person looks like that. The only alternatives she could be are like iranian or egyptian you know middle eastern or south asian like indian and those are close enough to africa. A small part of egypt is even geographically considered to be in Africa its a transcontinental country. We'll never know for sure where in the world she would be from if she wasn't born in the afterlife so its a dumb point to argue. What kinda tan looks like that. Anyway Chad's speech during the fullbring arc about having pride in his skin is kubo's graduation album for me. No matter how many black guys transform into bugs or pumpkins or chickens no way can he be racist after that one. Am i the only one that noticed the big new series doing less and less with ethnic diversity? Demon slayer, chainsawman, AoT sorta, JJK. We used to have naruto, bleach, fullmetal alchemist. One piece did some bad stuff with race but still got guys like king. Why have they gotten worse? And like nobody is bringing this up. All the most popular shit nowadays has the usual white people pretending to be asian as the whole cast. Afro was so cool can't believe they got samuel to voice him. Yasuke was such a let down following him up.
I remember watching tiger & bunny on Netflix there is a black character named Flame and when I look at that character he represents those that are part of the rainbow community you see all the characters that are masculine except for this one flame he is a feminine character he does not represent the average black man it's a shame that the character was represented as black and feminine like queer character dress in pink His name is fire emblem now I remember it is such a shame this black character how is a polling represented as a black character with feminine energy and he's dressed all in pink I just remember his name is #tigerandBunnyfireemblem
India had all the races known to humanity 😅 Like himalyan and north east indians are tibeto burmese 5 to 7% of india Muslims and general hindu clans like brahmins rajputs look more middle eastern 25% to 40% Dravidians and tribal population look black because they are austroasiatic or melanesian 40 to 50 % And the you have many other small clans like parsis who came from persia.
I dont understand why western people are obsessed with race. Race is extremely meaningless thing. Like Nikki haley and kamala harris both are indian by ethicity but one is considered white and other as black 😂😂
Afro Samurai it is the greatest anime of all time's I still believe they needs to be some progress what it's about representation because they're not always going to be inclusive when you go to see some black anime characters there are never always the main characters because I feel like sometimes black characters in anime there are only design just to please black people to feel this inclusion and then you don't see them in certain scenes in Japanese anime yes there are never the main characters by the way it's very rare Anime in English it means cartoon so there isn't that difference between anime in Japan and including Western anime Western anime it's considered anime because it's doubtful cartoon I think they should be a black anime Studio to represent black people that will be very cool if they do a black Anime Studio and a black platform that represents black people
@@JetTheProphether voice actor is Afro Latina. At the time they wanted a VA to represent her so consider that I guess. Besides that we must remember lots of Latinos identify as black or of the diaspora.
@@JetTheProphet 2 to 3. Yoruichi (most mistaken for Black in anime history lol) is South Asian, tan.

The same can apply to a black or african character in anime. they dont need to have any black phenotypical features to be black and if that is the requirement for black people in anime, that is if only black people in anime must have their facial phenotypes depicted to be considered black instead of more obvious things like chocolate skin tone or maybe even curly hair then white and asian/japanese anime characters should display their races respective phenotypes as well. It's always strange when people have weird agendas when their agendas can be disproven easily.
Please keep in mind that most characters with black skin in Japanese anime are not Black people and do not aspire to be Black. It may not be well understood by Westerners, but Japanese people can have their skin darken or turn brown when they tan. There are even places in Japan specifically for tanning. However, Japanese people do not wish to become Black."
