| She got a reversed Casca's white washing case, lol. |

| And Casca is white. People change, deal with it |
| It's a reboot so it's not a big deal Rose in FMA and FMA:Brotherhood lightened up a couple of skin tones but it was no big deal because reboot if you want to make a thread about this you could make one about how Casca is now magically white in the new Berserk though |

Nothing wrong with a black character, but knowing america as it presents itself nowadays, they're probably doing this to be politically correct after all the stupidity about the academy awards not being black enough. I just don't see the point of changing stuff that doesn't have to be changed Same goes for hermione and her daughter in the Harry Potter play. |
It's okay to smirk |

Having more diversity is not a bad thing until it doesn't damage the show.Nothing wrong with a black character, but knowing america as it presents itself nowadays, they're probably doing this to be politically correct after all the stupidity about the academy awards not being black enough.

I stopped caring abut harrypotte after the 7th book, I didn't even watch the films after the 5th one. |

Zelkiiro said: Awful lotta white supremacists in this thread... Just to make sure I'm not being misunderstood, which happens often when you're on the web, I don't care much about the race or gender of the actors themselves. For all I care, Allura could be changed to Indian Albino. Same goes for the cast of the HP play. For all I care, Ron could be played by an asian, Hermione by a black woman and their daughter by a Hispanic transgender with autism, as long as they nail their roles. My problem is that needlessly changing the ethnicity of a character for the sake of diversity is just placing them on a pedestal for even more racism |

potatoeman said: Redesigns happen all the time with reboots and I think this is an experiment to see if this kind of localization works, in Japan most characters are white because so is most of the population but Europe and USA are more mixed so the show might be appealing for a larger target thanks to the new princess. Of course, you can't just change a character's race out of nowhere, besides what's the fucking point? If this was a continuation I would agree with you but it seems like a reboot so I don't see the issue of a redesign. I understand fans not liking it because everytime a character has a redesign fans will complain how it was better before even the few times it is not true but I don't understand making out of it a bigger issue than just a complete redesign. |

My bad, i didn't know it was a reboot, i agree with you. It still seems kind of pointless to me but it makes more sense. |

| I think blue eyes speak against the changed ethnicity theory. She merely got a nice tan, one you got after the vacations in Caribbean. |

| Guys. Allura is an alien. A shape shifting alien no less. She literally turned herself purple and grew a full ft to disguise herself on a Galra ship. Alteans don't give a damn about the Earth concept of race, she looks that way because she wants to. Besides, what's wrong with a more diverse cast? Next thing you know everyone starts flipping their shit because new Pidge is a girl. |

Next thing you know everyone starts flipping their shit because new Pidge is a girl. That's a very good point that most of the guys here didn't think of. Plus she's way more beautiful in the new version, brown skin looks hot on her. |

And she looks good in it too. It doesn't speak against changed ethnicity. She's brown in the new one, that's it. She's not a tanned white person, also she's an alien, so her color really doesn't matter. But there are real life black people with blue or green eyes, there are some black actors and actresses like that as well. For example Michael Ealy http://unapix.com/uploads/pages/biographies/Michael%20Ealy.jpg Vanessa Williams: http://i.huffpost.com/gen/994679/images/o-VANESSA-WILLIAMS-ANCESTRY-facebook.jpg Denise Vasi http://www.hawtcelebs.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/denise-vasi-at-2014-roc-nation-pre-grammy-brunch-in-beverly-hills_4.jpg Jesse Williams: http://thesource.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Jesse-Williams-Thesource.jpg Gary Dourdan: http://assets.nydailynews.com/polopoly_fs/1.284209.1314353849!/img/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/article_970/amd-garydourdan-jpg.jpg etc. More black actors/actresses/artists with blue/green/hazel eyes here: http://blackeyesincolor.blogspot.ro/2012/07/famous-people.html In conclusion, even if it's rare for a black person to have light or even blue eyes, it's possible, it happens in reality. |
