I saw many English comments telling one Japanese artist who was cautioned for drawing POC characters in pale colours and took them down, "You have done nothing wrong, don't kneel to the SJWs"...
"The Japanese don't know anything about politics, they're just kawaii uwu" ...I personally would like to disagree with such an opinion. But unfortunately, not many Japanese artists are aware of racism. That is also a fact.
There is an increasing number of Japanese productions that are racially diverse with a view to "international expansion", but perhaps the awareness of japanese fans has not caught up with this.
Japanese artists are unknowingly engaging in racism when they think they are just drawing fan art of their favourite characters. However, I don't think this is a story that can be solved with "they don't know, so let's forgive them".
"Japanese artist have been forced to apologise and retract their art after political-correctness-berserkers accused them of making Pokemon's Nessa too white."
