    Or they tell you to go make your own…like damn they have plenty of depictions of actual white people with blonde hair and blue eyes, but they can’t depict Black people properly??

      i’ll never get why they say this btw, it’s not as easy as you make it sound to come up with a good story, especially one that’ll be a smash hit too

      but they can’t depict Black people properly??

      nope, because somehow they never “interacted with a black person in their whole life” 🤡🤡🤡

        Good stories aren’t difficult to make if you have the creativity and the will to make something that doesn’t have to rely on harmful stereotypes for representation. Problem is, there isn’t much incentive to do so cause that’s not profitable, and in the end we all know that’s the reason why anime can be so toxic in a patriarchal and mostly homogeneous society.
