Fucking amazing how many people fly into a frothing rage at the sight of dark skin.
They're enraged about "tokenism" and declare inclusion is meaningless but beneath that they're enraged that they feel less included.
The tokenism claim is crazy like it's not a really diverse cast of actors representing people he meets while traveling alllllll around the world. Like his in universe purpose of pursuing freedom and achieving his dream necessarily requires that he meets and develops relationships with a diverse cast of people.
If any anime series should have a diverse cast of characters that I can think of, it's one that's about travel, exploration, and a multitude of people joining an ever-larger crew.
One wonders if they think inclusion is meaningless why it pisses them off so much.
It's usually the same people that claim "nothing offends them" but get really fucking mad if people aren't laughing at their tiresome edgy jokes.
