Have you ever had someone who didn't like your comment on ONE manga, stalk your profile and dislike all your previous comments? I kid you not, someone took their time and energy to go through all 39 pages of my comments, and dislike them. I literally have like 10+ likes on my comments and that one dislike. Which cracks me up cause like...why? No matter how much I hate someone, I am not spending my time to dislike all their posts.
Am I the only one who's a bit offended by all the mangas that portray darker skinned people as savage or animalistic while their pale counterparts are usually more human and capable of rational thought. I don't know, I just feel like it's becoming a pattern. Whether or not they are the dominant party in a relationship, they always have more wild personality traits and and seem less educated.
No u aren’t the only one lol. Manga artist are just racists and take inspiration from racist American shows and cartoons who portray dark skinned people that way. Instead of doing their own research.
I never noticed .. maybe there s nothing much into it.. what i noticed is that the darker skinned characters are usually from some village or island places and it s reasonable because it seems that people there spend more time outside and get tinned
You right. Plus I think most of these authors are asian and...well, Asians seem to hate darker skin cause they're toxic and racist. I read that this is because tanned people were often peasants in the past and being pale meant you were likely rich but in this day and age it's still pretty obvious how it's become racist. Nobody tanner than a black person. And the constant ads for face whitening cremes, and their treatment of tanned or darker skinned people as dirty. I think this is low-key manifested in their work. Either that or as usual, people who aren't pale af are seen eXotic.
Literally the only one I've read like that is Mother's Spirit, which I'll excuse somewhat. But every other manga with darker skinned characters that I've read has the character living the same lifestyle as a pale af character yet they are portrayed different. Still animalistic, and the longer canines for no reason.
