I saw an article explaining this, I'm going to try and find it.

Edit
Found it: http://thesocietypages.org/socimage...why-do-the-japanese-draw-themselves-as-white/

Interesting article. The default human in my mind was black. Outside of kids shows we watched nothing but black shows at my house as a kid, my dad controlled the remote in the house:pachaha:


That is Koreans, Japanese tend to be more likely to have double eyelids. Korean girls can't be trusted when it comes to looks. There are a lot of fine ass Koreans in the US and in South Korea but almost all of them have had work done.

I also found something very interesting regarding the Mirror's Edge main character, the top is how Swedish designer drew her and the bottom is how Koreans re-drew her. Interesting look at Western vs. East Asian view on Asian woman beauty.

Some people didn't grow around a bunch of Asians. I grew up in an area as diverse as the Bay Area. I knew the difference from a Korean, Chinese, Vietnamese, and Filipino by the end of middle school. Its similar to an African being able to tell the difference between tribes. Its a learned skill.

Werd that's what trips me up.

These anime creators should know since its their people yet the eye outlines and curves of some of the japanese characters look more western shaped than japanese.

I was trying to tell that to the other member as well. They have a distinct curve that is quite visible to me.

its called a punch perm

This hair style was invented taking a hint from black people's hair by Japanese barber Shigemi Naganuma of Hair-salon Naganuma in Kokurakita-ku, Kitakyūshū in 1960s.[1] Naganuma named it "champion press". However, it came to be called "punch perm" all too soon (because of its punchy and powerful appearance, according to one theory).[2] He became an apprentice barber at age of 19 and became independent at age of 26. At that time, the hair iron stick for the perm was round shaped and could not hold the hair tightly. Then, young Naganuma, after closing his shop, filed the hair iron into a hexagonal shape, like a pencil, for a tighter hold.[1]
