shit i liked it on accident while i was tryna dislike
After reading through all this I figured I’d explain some of the things it seems you could be struggling to grasp. To start you state that the drawing them ugly is due to them being the villain in this arc, but the issue is then that it seems almost every mixed or foreign person was drawn in a very unattractive way. So unless almost every character that’s foreign or mixed in this chapter was the villain which from what I can tell from this one chapter is not the case that argument doesn’t work. I can also tell just from this chapter alone from the way the teacher is drawn more attractive that they wanted us to side with him, not to say you did but I just thought about that in relation. Also as some have already pointed out saying ‘blacks’ can be dehumanizing even in just a subconscious way bc I’m sure you didn’t intend it that way. Saying black people would work just fine. And finally to comment on the issue of the apology, it is them throwing out nice words to cover the complete negligence and lack of research for such a sensitive topic. They claimed they wanted to bring light to the issue of racism but managed to do it in a way that would only enhance Korean hate on foreigners. The more Korean a character was in this chapter the more oppressed they were compared to the foreign characters. And it also concerns me that for lack of research they could still give accurate specific research like higher Asian hate in Harlem. If they could figure out that much they likely could have easily learned how horrible most of the contents of this chapter are.
and @Icespicelover84....I see!!! Thanks for clearing it for me, I'll look into Jim Crow south and caricature art of black people and I apologize for using that term.
You know I still think it's overreaction on drawing part, the issue with slur fine I get it, people couldve protested to remove just this one chapter also all the villians were ugly not just this one, everyone is just being sensitive on the drawing part as if they expect it to be throwing stars and flowers.....
Rest of the things you said, till now was the best answer I was looking for my questions and well the teacher is potrayed as an important character so I guess are the reason for his shiny looks, it's just their way of drawing......
To be honest people are overreacting...the way it was drawn wasn't at all that bad also he's portraying as a villian, which till now all of them have been ugly(looks and personality)!!........what I agree is the use of the slurs was unnecessary, first half of this chapter was alright, they messed up in the latter parts of the chapter also I don't really know if blacks really discriminate against asians so I can't comment on that........the creators are getting too much hate infact I don't think their apology was some bs at least they accepted, I bet even they wouldn't have imagined that drawing a black person would cause them so much trouble....
