Being an anime fan, skin-color is irrelevant. Welcome to our niche' community. (Instructions for the special greeting handshake will appear in your inbox within 5-10 business days) |
 You're never too old to watch anime. If I ever stop watching anime, check my pulse I'm likely dead. I wake up with coffee & anime, I go to sleep with coffee & anime. Sorry if my sarcasm is bad, it's not my first language. |
| what you mean lol? haven't we always liked anime? know so many other niggas black guys who love anime lol and whats hip hop got to do with anime? some anime have hip hop in their soundtracks, but thats about it as far as i can tell |
 |
| why do you even need to inserting the race? |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| Well....it's not like anime is made for white or black people... It's made for Japanese people. We (non-Japanese people) are simply piggybacking. Just like American cartoons are made for Americans....if Non-Americans want to also enjoy it, that's cool too. |
| Anime if for everyone, that's about it bro, not much of a Hip-Hop guy (Metal dude) but it's cool to know you dudes enjoy this medium |
  Ascended Taste I only came back to this site for the forum sets and to promote my RYM list... Anilist ftw still :dab: |
DevonConners said: Kuma said: why do you even need to inserting the race? my post was more towards tho growing trend of the hip hop community openly discussing their love for anime and its stigma lessening in the west...less antagonistic than it might have came off pretty sure every pop culture nerd does... i don't see any different in it.. |

They aren't always drawn as dark-skinned characters either. So it's a little more than just soundtracks. |

Can we have MORE dark skinned female characters?   ^Sooooooo Good! |
You're doing the lords work I second the motion |
| Well you see a lot of anime fans among professional athletes and actors nowadays as well, hell even former president Obama acknowledged and thanked Japan for anime and manga. Truth be told the medium is becoming more and more excepted. Its certainly not mainstream, but no doubt its slowly heading into that direction. |

| Wtf does this have to do with hip hop. |
| black people in the west have always been real into asian culture. They always were into kung fu movies for instance (just look at the wu-tang clan) , and now theyre into anime and jrpgs and all that good stuff its probably partly a reaction to being surrounded by only white people in the mainstream media. |

With the internet, random nerd culture is getting exchanged about. Hell, it's really shocking how e-sports is advertising anime because some of the players watch it and talk on Twitch about it or stream jRPGs. As long as people don't be rioting whenever cultural appropriation or whatever gross issue appears in anime arise, we're cool. There's so much anime and manga out there that it's offended everyone at one point or another. It's much appreciated if one doesn't act like a special snowflake when it happens. |
| Strangely enough, I just started watching Tokyo Tribe 2, and I'm loving it. Anyways, I enjoy seeing how global anime has become, where anime starts taking parts of different cultures and reinterpret their styles through anime. Flipping that around, it's cool to see how anime can find itself in other cultures and sub-cultures around the world, where people don't necessarily have to be anime fans to enjoy anime. Rather, they may just enjoy a good show, to where anime becomes less of a form of Japanese-derived entertainment and more of another means to get a kick out of certain genres of storytelling, which just so happens to be a Japanese product. If it can make every culture involved more diverse, which in this case is anime and hip hop, then I'm all for it. |
