That joke doesn't play because Akira Yoshida is an actual Japanese name

It is, isn't it? I think I retract that post, even if Mononoke Dragonball made me grin.

Yeah, as much as I enjoy dunking on the guy, Akira Yoshida is a perfectly average Japanese name. It's no Takumi Matsumoto or anything, but you'd probably bump into a couple.

It’s a real name but Taro Sato levels of creativity. Doubt anyone young gets named that anymore.

Also, Shirobako came out in 2014. So it wouldn't be on a list from 2003. So it's a bad tweet in a lot of ways

Revol posted:Haha, ooohh boy. This is definitely amusing but also incredibly hypocritical, given how he handled diversity issues during his tenure as EiC. I'm also amazed that it's been two days since the BC story broke and there still hasn't been any official statement from Marvel beyond confirming that Yoshida was CB's pseudonym.

Darkhawk #51 was the first of these one-shots to actually disappoint me that it wasn't leading into a thing. I was really expecting Chris's new fiance to be an alien kill-bot or dead by page 18 or something and was glad when she wasn't.

Yeah, but it's likely that Cebulski came up with it by combining Katsuhiro Otomo's Akira with the X-Men character Sunfire

Also let's not pretend anyone knows who Sunfire is.

Lol so he pretended to be straight up a Japanese person from Japan as well? I bet Marvel was overjoyed to have a manga person working for them. What a clownish series of events.

Oh man, I finally remembered who Sunfire is. He's on Seanbaby's list of ridiculously racist comic book characters. Japanese. Has nuclear powers.

Billzasilver posted:Oh man, I finally remembered who Sunfire is. He's on Seanbaby's list of ridiculously racist comic book characters. Japanese. Has nuclear powers. Marvel has a problem with their asian characters in general. I've pointed this out before. Shang Chi is a kung fu man and the son of Fu Manchu. Yellow Claw and Mandarin are named Yellow Claw and Mandarin, for starters. Sunfire has nuclear powers and his name is basically a reference to the imperial japanese flag, as is his outfit. Jubilee is of Chinese descent and has firework powers. Armor's mutant power is to channel her honorable ancestors and turn them into mechs. Agent X is a goddamn yakuza ninja with a code of honor. The least racist asian characters in Marvel are Nico Minoru and The Cat, although you could make a case the latter is just a different kind of ninja stereotype.

Lurdiak posted:There's so many examples and they're all the worst. Master of Kung Fu is actually a really good comic. I like Jubilee. I also like all the early solo Woverine stuff, both the Miller series and the Madripoor stuff. I'll go to bat somewhat for those comics. The problem isn't any of these books or characters individually. It's a systematic thing, tempered by lack of creators. Especially in light of the Yoshida incident
