| There are none so far I have seen in anime However, a neighboring country is referenced in Sabage bu!'s madmax survival game episode |
| I recently watched Sonny Boy, and it had an Indian character named 'Rajdhani'. What's funny is that Rajdhani means 'capital' in Hindi (as in capital of a country or state) and no one in their right mind would name their kids that. India was referenced a few times in Code Geass and Neon Genesis Evangelion as a producer of mechs and stuff. Chitanda's uncle from Hyouka was reported to be missing in India. |

| As far as I remember, only 2 anime/manga come to my mind. 1. Record of Ragnarok has a major supporting character called Shiva who's an Indian god of destruction and happens to be 5th contender representing the gods in Ragnarok. 2. Shakunetsu Kabaddi. Well, there aren't any characters, in particular, the sport itself originates from South Asia, particularly a southern state in India. Also, I've heard that Jojo's has some Indian characters. |

| even tho OP asked for anime or manga, I'll reply with a game cuz I'm retarded  |
 |
| References of India in Code Geass. Rakshata was from India |
| In JoJo Part 1, Zepelli talked about learning about "improving his breathing" and ultimately about hamon from a doctor when he was in India Also, in Part 3, the Stardust crusaders are shown at the Howrah bridge, which is in the region of Bengal in India. And in Hyouka, iirc, the main character's sister, in the first episode, sends him a letter from Benaras, India. |

| Akage no Anne (Anne of green gables) they even made a prequel anime Before Green Gables. Japan loves redheads.. Besides that I don't remember Canada being in too many anime except the odd character like Maya Walker from Puraore! (hockey anime is mandatory watching for Canadians) |
 |
And the saddest ep too, if my memory's right. |
| Italy and they're just too much *mandatory JoJo reference* |
| I haven’t seen many references of Mexico in anime, however one that I have seen as of late is in the second season of Let's Make a Mug Too where the main characters meet a girl named Ximena from Mexico |
 |
| Quite rare, I've only seen my country get mentioned in anime once or twice. |
 |
| From the anime I've watched so far, 90% of the scenes that take place in the USA are either: - New York City - the southwest, such as Arizona or Nevada. New York is such an iconic city that of course it's going to show up in anime now and then. As for the southwest, I think the reason for that is that it's the region most unlike anywhere in Japan. Most of the rest of the USA has climate, terrain, and vegetation that is at least somewhat similar to somewhere in Japan, whereas the wide open deserts of Arizona with cactus and rock formations are unlike any part of Japan, making them a more attractive setting for creators of Japanese media. |
A møøse once bit my sister... |
| Oh and I wasn't expecting to see my city in any manga, but in https://myanimelist.net/manga/93181/Chitei_Ryokou they made a stopover in Kiel. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| There are tons of references to the US in anime. Maybe the most famous/obvious is the character Funny Valentine from JoJo Part 7, who is the President of the United States. |

Shicl said: Selamat pagi - Nichijou Tempe - Shokugeki no Souma Komodo - BTOOM Nasi goreng - Jormungand and others... Yea, a lot, but most of them just a short mention. |
| Nagano from Real (manga) played wheelchair basketball at New South Wales University and goes around calling people 'mate.' Probably doesn't count but TOUGA BOXING A KANGAROO in Revolutionary Girl Utena was wild. |
| Oreki’s sister (Hyouka) visits India and In kaguya sama manga, there is a chapter set in India |
| If you are from South East Asia, then I request you, when you will start an anime, you search if it is available on Muse Asia and Ani-one Asia, before looking through piracy websites |
rz21c97 said: In Charlotte, when the protagonist went to a suburb. Also in K-on. And a cat named viracocha in Sansha Sanyou. based examples about Peru being mentioned in anime. A shame the K-ONs travelled to London instead of Matzu pichu |
