Unintentionally (or intentionally) racist SJW art

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
Does anyone remember, there was a Japanese video game character whose design was obviously based on the (incredibly handsome) Toshiro Mifune, then some tumblrite declared it "too western looking", racist, and redesigned him as a sallow-skinned, squint-eyed caricature straight out of some WW2 propaganda?
Do you mean the Tsubaki redesign pic?

I see it a lot with race bending in general, a lot of times the more aggressive character is given darker skin (Vegeta, Shadow the Hedgehog, Buttercup from the Powerpuff Girls, Ryuko from Kill la Kill, etc)
... Isn't Shadow the Hedgehog already black though?
