Of course, I say this as a diaspora Asian of sorts.
Noizumi is half-Japanese, and she found herself thinking, “Why am I so excited that my daughter has blue eyes? What’s the big deal about that? And why am I so excited that I have a baby who looks more white?”
This is the kind of statement that would get a white celebrity cancelled for saying it, but apparently it's just a fun tidbit for Netflix.
In their early creative conversations that would eventually span 15 years, they started spinning a tale about how “back in the Edo period starting in 17th-century Japan, it would’ve been illegal to be white.
Wtf based Edo period.
CW: Rape
According to some of the promotional materials, the main character is a product of rape of a Japanese woman by a white man, which is a terrible and insensitive if they play it straight and a weeb fantasy if they redeem the dad at the end.
Idk if the series is as good as they say, but how the fuck did they think that publishing any of this was a good idea?
More like White worship was a mistake. Lots of non-white people talk like this and it's gross. These types will pass up gorgeous poc for some mediocre or ugly white person just so they can have kids with lighter skin and colored eyes. The kids usually grow up with a number of mental health issues too.
Yeah, the title is mostly a joke. I don't really care if someone is gonna date some mid-looking person of another race, but this kind of white worship is so fucked up for the kids and it's just not fair.
I actually do mind if they date someone mid-looking after trashing people of their own race as being ugly for having darker skin. It shows they view their partner as nothing more than a breeding mule for their white looking children. I have people like this in my family and I've lost any patience for this kind of bullshit.
Apparently, this is her husband: https://ik.imagekit.io/870xgzp1i/hocmarketing-org/11/04/og--behind-the-scenes-with-blue-eye-samurai-drawing-inspiration-from-clint-eastwood-infusing-live-action-vibes-into-animation?tr=w-600,h-400
mid ass white boy
By all means dunk on the guy for being a weirdo nerd but can we not body shame people as if that has anything to do with their shitty behavior?
From the picture, they seem to be at around the same level of attractiveness and even seem to have matching brainworms so a good match altogether.
damn imagine marrying the a.o smith guy
What is the intended implication of this statement? Are you trying to imply that dating someone because of the colour of their skin (instead of going for someone more fitting, regardless of their skin colour) leads to dysfunctional relationships which have negative impact on their children?
