| Most anime characters are of average proportions by Japanese standards which in the US is considered "very skinny". 30% of Americans are obese while only 3% of Japanese people are obese. Overweight people are naturally considered "people with problems" as they can't manage their diet well. In American TV shows they don't tend to portray teenage girls who smoke or are pregnant as being "hot girls" or "good role models" because we see those as being bad things that can be prevented. Things like braces and acne are commonly seen in American TV shows and are rarely seen in anime, likely for similar reasons. In anime beards tend to only be worn by elderly men as younger men are expected to shave. Unlike in the US fat girls would not be considered to be "relatable characters" and are also not considered to be attractive so there's no reason to have them as protagonists. |

| The same reason why no anime characters have arm or leg hair. |
| Big Order (TV):great anime or greatest anime? |
| Becuz being fat is not "cute"(some of the meanings of this chinese word, you unnecessarily used, but I dont dare to do). |
| Smoke Weed Everyday |

If you're outside a certain range, they will require you to seek medical help. Though it only applies to the older age group, like 40+ if I recall correctly. |

There was a cute character in the second Little Witch Academia movie. I'm sure there's been plenty of argument already about diversity in previous threads, but Japan doesn't seem to like having protagonists be anything but light skinned and fairly slender. You look at a franchise as big as Precure and all 40+ girls have relatively the same skin color and body type. It starts to get kind of bothersome when they all seem like they're made from the exact same mold, just with different hair color/style. |
| Obesity doesn't exist on this planet. |
  |
| Because that'd be paradoxical per definition |
  |
| Kanako Mimura However fat is whack in anime, you can find chubby idols irl though. |
 |
You mean like this? Most Americans consider these girls to be underweight. |
|
A few of the girls are under 5'0" in which they would be considered chubby (you have to take height into consideration). |
|
| Why are there no obese sexy bishounen??? |
 |
I always bring up Real drive in these sorts of threads.  |

| i am Ahab and i have a fucking harpoon, beware! |
| Not all anime girls are skinny... A LOT of them are ''normal''. There is a REALLY good reason why there aren't much fat girls in anime as Japan has one of the lowest obesity percentage in the world. It's not like in the US or here in Canada where it's over 50 fucking %. In short, there aren't much fat people in Japan, i believe that's part of the reason why there aren't much fat anime characters ( But there are a couple ). There is a difference between normal and skinny, skinny people aren't any better than fat people tbh, it isn't good for your health to look like a skeleton. Most anime guys are way too skinny ( Probably even more so than anime girls ) yet all we hear is how the girls are skinny -_-. I understand most anime guys are supposed to be weak but for fucks sake Brook in One Piece has more fat than most of them. |

Japan actually has a really weird thing going on where they paint their faces black and they love adding token dark-skinned characters as well |

zombie_pegasus said: Wikipedia says that 74% of Americans are overweight or obese. 36% of Americans are obese. obesity is a weird concept many people are considered medically obese even if theyre not fat; it's a mix of height, age, and BMI that makes it so abstract and unimportant |

Sorry we asked for thick girls not cows. |
