  Wishes to be Asian
  Post picture of anime girl, an art style that is highly stylized but somewhat generic in terms of ethnic identity markers

  • fluffykittycat@slrpnk.net ⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    You’re right. Anime characters don’t really look too much Like any specific ethnicity most of the time. I wonder if that’s part of the appeal

    • ragebutt@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨4⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      I think it’s just a byproduct of animation. The simpsons don’t necessarily look like any specific ethnicity either

      There are some animes which have very clear and distinct racial markers. Perfect blue or Akira for example.

      It 100% is. Like one of the best aspects of non descript stylization is self insertation!

  That’s Kuroko, one of my favourite characters from scientific railgun.

    Is she the one with the superpower to make things slightly warm? Like heating up a cup of tea?

    • jellyfishhunter@lemmy.world ⁨8⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      No, you’re thinking of Uiharu. Kuroko was the one who can teleport.

  And then there were all the kids wishing they were in America rather than their boring first-world suburb/provincial town. They didn’t get any more specific, and I imagine they were probably thinking of New York/LA/somewhere glamorous, and would have been bitterly disappointed if the maliciously-helpful wishing genie had whisked them away to a rustbelt town in Ohio or some unincorporated community in Alabama or wherever.

    Just about anywhere in America is an improvement on the Philippines. My wife’s from there and all her friends married white American guys. They have all told me the same thing; The poverty is staggering.

    My wife doesn’t say anything about it, but I gather she grew up solidly middle class. I don’t think she has a clue how the poors live.

  Even just a standard family in South Korea sounds pretty horrible. Very stressful, very little free time. Japan is better, but still not great. Now imagine what happens if the country turns full authoritarian again from that starting point, as is the general tendency in most countries nowadays.

  • UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world ⁨7⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Everything boils down to your economic cohort. Being upper class in Korea and Japan is fantastic. Being upper class in the Philippines is pretty great, all things considered. Just be born rich. Anywhere, really. Even being a rich Ukrainian or Syrian gets you a lot of extra mileage, globally. And the spread between rich and poor in a country like Dubai or South Africa, right now? Astronomical.

      Eh… My little cousins live in Korea and come from money, it still sounds kinda crappy. 8 hours of school then instrument practice, dance class, and after school academy… the little dudes get home at like 9-10pm every night. One of them calls all the time and begs us to host him when he’s ready for college, the little guy just wants to play football.

      It really doesn’t sound like the original OP wants to be rich, though. As far as I can tell, their fantasy is to be regular school kid. I suppose an upper middle class kid in philippines, indonesia etc. is probably similar enough to satisfy anon’s fantasy. But I think especially in Korea and China, you would actually still be expected to work your ass off in school even if you’re rich.
