Well, I sadly had a father who I'd classified as "racist". I went to a university with students from over 100 countries in it... We often came into conflict based on opinions. what can you do? I find older generations have less tolerance towards certain ethnic groups, while younger ones tend to be more tolerable, all save for those who've sadly adopted their opinions from the older generations. Its a sad subject, and SeeU's caught up in a bit of it, but... This sort of thing is sometimes unavoidable, when you throw a product into the market anything can happen. I know there are numerous folks who hate anything remotely Japanese and say its "for weaboos" only. If you know Pewdiepie on youtube, even he comments that while most horror games he plays are fairly popular, his most unpopular ones tend to be Japanese horrors like Siren, Project Zero/Fatal Frame... There are a few exceptions to this rule like Silent Hill, however, its not just Japanese horror that has the same problem. J-RPGs get it a lot too, not I'm always a fan of this sort of thing, the classics like the Genesis/Megadrive Shining series were great, ditto Phantasy Star... Others... Not so good, modern ones tned to break up things too much with long cut scenes that make you wonder what part of the game you actually get to play the game in...

but yeah, its not as off topic as you think, when you consider also the reverse is much the same, things from other races can be overhyped when their not as good as people think. I've watched some decent american and british cartoons, french cartoons too... As ppular as anime is, its not without its flaws. However, the "weaboo-culture" kinda spoilt it for a lot of the things we had. Some folks hate cartoons made by their own country, even when 9/10 if its something like a Disney show the quality of the animation is often much higher. I used too lover anime, but its the weaboos that kinda ruined things for me, I was tired of saying "Japanese animation is not godly superior, its just different". I liked anime because of the very different story telling, I was often left questioning a lot of things in life... Not many American shows will leave you questioning things, but thats not to say their bad story telling, there is drama in them too and often its quite well played (not always) with a lot in-verse stuff going on. :-/
