Well, the main roster of Regular Show consists of a bird, a raccoon, a sentient lollipop, a yeti, and a gumball machine so. Gumball's character roster is a series of animals and animated objects so...
Do appearances really matter? They are white.

Plus, amazing world of gumball turned white when they became realistic.

Animals are just white people too.

In Gumball, the main character’s family got turned into humans and they white people in one episode, so...

Well everyone except for Darwin.

Willfully ignorant? By me not agreeing with your idea that most of the Bleach characters aren't Japanese? Ok. Whatever.

And no, I don't think he does. I think he looks like a cartoon character who's supposed represent a Japanese person in Kubo's style.
Let’s move away from Bleach then, does either Kaneki Ken (Tokyo ghoul) or Chichi (Dragonball series) look Asian?

Again, they look like cartoon characters to me. They don't look like real people, but based off of the style of the artist and context of the story, I understand that they're meant to be Asian.

Obviously they’re cartoons/drawings but let’s not act as though drawings can’t convey ethnicity or race. Anyway, Bulma looks Asian too, huh?

Not saying they can't, but most anime lacks the features necessary to portray it. The anime that you listed doesn't.

And considering you're saying that Ichigo is a white male instead of a Japanese, it further supports the idea that manga drawings aren't known for clearly portraying an ethnicity.

They definitely can but like I said earlier, those choose not to because they hate themselves.

Ichigo, Kaneki, Bulma, Android 13, Dr. Gero, etc. are all white characters.

General Tao and maybe grandpa Gohan are the only Asian looking DB characters that I can think of.

If you can find me a quote where Kubo states that Ichigo is white instead of Japanse, then I'll believe you. Otherwise, you're just projecting your own interpretation as the author's.

I'm not saying you can't have your own interpretation, but don't pretend like it's accurate, especially when all indicators point to Ichigo being Japanese.

Anways, I really don't care. I don't even know why I spent so much time on this topic.

-I don’t care to look for a quote and regardless of what he says, those characters that look white are in fact white. Ichigo is just as white as Minato and Naruto.

-You spent so much time on this topic because you willingly refused to understand.

Well I understand that you're trolling. So have a goodnight.

Chi Chi is literally dressed in Asian garb and her features aren't distinctive to any existing race IRL.
Lmfao Asian garb, as if that matters. In regards to her features, I agree...which is why I’d asked LightBringer about her features. And as expected, he still said that she looked Asian despite her not really looking Asian.

No he didn't. He said the exact same thing you are: She has no physical features to her body that is reflective of any real ethnicity. However, unlike you, he has the common sense to see the context surrounding her that connects her to being Japanese. Her name, her style of dress; even down to the architecture of her and Goku's house are all Asian/Japanese. She, like other DBZ characters like her, are meant to convey Asian culture.

Let’s stop the bullshit, very rarely do anime/manga artists draw their characters with Japanese facial features. They believe that white people are more attractive, and therefore they should honestly cast white people. If they don’t love themselves enough to depict it on paper then they can’t go bitching about Asians not being represented. That’s my opinion though.
They don't even have white people facial features, white people suck at Anime cosplay. Some of their likeness is closer to white people but overall it's far from every race for you to be this retarded.

First, you’re the idiot that lacks the common sense to realize that Chichi isn’t Japanese, considering that Japan doesn’t exist in DB. Your idiocy is further evident considering your failure to realize that wearing garb and living in an Asian type of home doesn’t make a character’s ethnicity or race Japanese. I know you’re illiterate but don’t act as if I didn’t say the following:

Ichigo’s dad is a white man and his mother’s white also. And so are both of his sisters. Sure he’s Asian by citizenship but visually he’s white.

Ichigo, a white character, has the soul Reapers garb which is Asian inspired but he’s still a white character living in Japan. Grimjow also wears Asian clothing and bears a katana, is he Asian to you? What about Kaneki ken? @bold: So is Hercule Asian too, Trunks wears a gi so he’s supposed to be Asian too? Lmfao you’re literally an idiot.

What makes them white? Their nose, lips, eyes, hair? None of those reflect that. A lot of Asians have skin colors that are pale too.

Like I said earlier, General Tao and Grandpa Gohan are the only Asians in the series. Asians don’t have blue/green eyes and wide eyes. Black people are also pale but they aren’t typically depicted as such in anime and mangas.

@Bold, What?

Those eyes are all way wider than the average white person's and most of the characters have dark brown eyes that are close to black which isn't extremely common in white people.

@bold: I meant that black people come in literally every skin color on the planet but that isn’t always conveyed in anime.

It’s an anime art style so that’s going happen so the exaggerated wideness is irrelevant. Their eyes aren’t slanted like General Tao’s which means that they aren’t Asian. The closest characters to sort-of resembling his eye type are Androids 17, 18 And Cabba. But Toriyama also gave them blue eyes and blonde hair, so more self hate. And then they recently added Cabba, whose eyes also turn green. But everyone else is definitely white, and don’t lie tons of whites have dark brown eyes. And early Tien and Yamcha, before their eyes widened.

The exaggeration isn't irrelevant. We're talking about features that indicate their race. Their eyes don't. Also, why is it self-hate?

>Don't lie.

Not, most have different colored eyes than black looking. Usually light brown.
