White is default in America
Marge Simpson her skin color is yellow and she have a blue afro black eye's nothing white about her but since white are default people see her as white
Ferb he have green hair and very long face and weird nose and black eyes any human don't even look like that but since white is default. People see him as white
Princess Bubblegum she have small button black eyes and pink hair but since white is default people see her as white
Kevin he have long black hair and eye's light skin he could easily be hapa Asian mixed Hispanic or middle Eastern but since white is default people see him as white
I can go on.but I want to talk about other things many character don't have anything stereotypical white either but people still see them as white this is why people were not happy about gamora being played by black Latina because default is white so they see green alien as white too
Only way to make them look "Asian" is by giving them stereotypical Asian eyes and weird teeth and broken English
Even Asian character in Western cartoon without small eyes are also called white looking
Now some misconception
Anime character are blonde blue eyes so they are white? Yes some are but some also have pink hair and pink eyes? What race they're? Cherry Blossom? And green one are leaf? What about purple hair and purple eye one? Most anime character are not even blonde ,hair color and eye color is for showing personality trait and differentiating design since many character have same design.
And it don't stop here white even claim anime character with black hair and black eyes
Anime character are white because they have pale skin? Well pale skin is not really uncommon in Asia actually and not all of them are pale and white people even claim tan anime character like revy.i don't know where this stereotype come from plenty of tan anime character like luffy itadori inuyasha .
And if they're very dark than black people claim them.well dark skin Asian exist most dark skin anime character are Asian not black.so you can't really win. I literally see many people who think that brock from pokemon is black because he Is dark lol he even have non existing straight line eye's that people claim every Asian have.
Anime character are white because they have big eye's? Really white people own big eye's? Biggest eye's belong to arab based on my experience even than big eye's Asian exist and most anime character have big eye's because it is easier to show emotion through them
Her eyes are round like most anime character. Anime usually have these kind of eyes
Anne Hathaway white women with big eye's average white women have smaller eye's than her and her eyes are almond shape.people see size but forget that white people have different eye shape also they have deeper set eyes and longer nose and more sharper features unlike anime characters.
Some anime character have small eyes but white people again claim them. Usually those anime character are smarter more mature and serious or lazy or wise kind. Again eye shape is also trait.
False thing anime give Chinese and Korean stereotypical east Asian features because Japanese think that they're ugly? Really brock is Japanese and he have straight line eyes most anime Chinese and korean character look like Japanese. .i have posted two Chinese character they look like normal Japanese anime character face wise. I can post more too but let's talk about other things.
People love talking about big eye's but always forgot about nose average anime character have flatter smaller nose unlike prominent nose white people have
Average anime girl nose judge for yourself.
I can't post enough image so I am gonna make Second part very soon. You can give me opinion on what you think.

Well, you already know what I think, but I'll repost it here to give your MyTake some activity.
Most Asians have the epicanthic fold (double eyelid) eyes. Some even have surgery to get "Western looking" eyes. I looked online though and they said half of all Asians have normal eyes. Even though I rarely see it here in South Korea. I can tell when a Korean looks "Western." Maybe it's just my part of Gyeonggi, though.

I also came across an interesting Quora question that asked about this. Why do Asians without double eyelids still look "Asian"?
www.quora.com/What-makes-Southeast-Asians-without-epicanthic-folds-look-Asian
In my opinion, Asians (especially the women) barely look "Asian" without the double eyelids. At best, they look half white or mixed race. Without the double eyelids and with fair skin (the tone that Caucasians have, not the pale Asian skin tone), they will look "white" in anime.
I'm not white, so to imply there must be some racist/self-absorbed undertones there that only white people would think that clearly Caucasian looking animated characters look Caucasian, is inaccurate. Like I said, people see them and they see "white" looking characters. Nobody actually said they were white.
Also, nobody once cared about Zoe Saldana playing Gamora. I don't know where you pulled that from in your MyTake. Nobody cares about a non-white playing Starfire either, except the Starfire from "Titans" looks like absolute sh*t and nothing like the character whatsoever, with race having nothing to do with it. The actress looks like a late 30s black woman who smokes a pack a day, when Starfire is supposed to be a 6'0" athletic young adult female with orange skin. And black girls have accurately cosplayed as Starfire as well. So the Gamora argument is ridiculous and a strawman, to me.
This seems like it's all in your head and you're projecting it onto "white people." It's not nearly that deep and you're the one overthinking it. It'd be like looking at a Jamaican in all black clothing and short hair and him getting offended because you thought he was African American when they generally have the same skin tone and complexion.
And for the record, I don't give a sh*t about race. And I think arguing over race is the dumbest sh*t ever. But it's foolish to think humans haven't developed the ability to distinguish racial traits and facial features in others and that pointing them out implies that they're "racist" cause that clearly Caucasian looking person is actually one of those oh-so-common blonde haired, blue eyed, 178 cm Japanese women we see so often.
Korean are least likely to have big eye's
I literally know people with big eye's who did no surgery. Please visit Hokkaido
Were you born in a western country? If so than white is default for you. Because that's what you saw growing up
I know white people who didn't liked gamora casting. Literally you probably don't follow nerd culture
Caucasian looking person is actually one of those oh-so-common blonde haired, blue eyed, 178 cm Japanese women we see so often.
Most anime character are short? And what race is pink hair pink eye anime character? Cherry Blossom? And height is not white trait lol
Is it wrong for me to say that anime character look more like Asian singer's compared to white singer's?
Hokkaido is the whitest part of Japan, though! It's basically Russia!
I was born in the US, but I live in South Korea right now and literally 95-99% of the people I see daily are Koreans.
I know more about Gamora and Marvel than you do, I'm sure. Like I said, you likely just took one or two fringe examples and ran with it. Gamora and the Guardians of the Galaxy weren't even popular Marvel characters before the movie, so that's how I know you're full of it. No one cared enough about her to bitch about it. But I DO know lots of SJW retards who were complaining about Scarlett Johansson in Ghost in the Shell, despite the character canonically being white. (That's literally the "shell" part of the title! She's a Japanese woman whose brain is in a cyborg that looks like a white lady.)
And we all know it's stupid Western women who dye their hair the most. Yes, Asians dye it too sometimes, but it's only about half as much as pathetic American girls with Daddy Issues.

... But yeah, it's not an exclusively white thing, that much is true.
You can have your opinion that all anime characters look completely Asian, if you want. But I simply do not agree with you, and I don't have to. We can agree to disagree.
Hokkaido is the whitest part of Japan, though! It's basically Russia
Lol literally nope it is not Russia you live in South Korea which are least likely to have double eyelid and apply it to Japan. How should a girl from Hokkaido feel about you calling her Russian? It don't feel good
Are Eurasian girls most attractive? ↗
See this question and these women don't look mixed. This is how hapas actually look
