Thanks for posting it. Always good to see. Of course it would be heavily weighted on Chinese movies and hardly any on Japanese. Japanese movies tend to glorify white people instead. And China also get…
I wonder if sports like basketball was more popular in Japan and if more Japanese men were taller we would see a Japanese basketball star, like how baseball has Shohei and boxing has Naoya.
nice, i also want to see a movie on Taiwan's resistance against Dutch colonizer and importantly Japanese colonizer.

Resident Evil has no Japanese male pronagonist is insane. Not saying the game is bad but, I really do think most of Japanese video game industry has no self respect.

It is quite embarassing when you look at capcom. Like you're a Japanese company, why the hell you can't put an Asian man as the MC.
If white guys can make Ghost of Tsushima or Avatar the Last Airbender, Japanese should be allowed to make things like Vinland Saga and Frieren. With that said, it is a bit sad that specifically in…
