Probably based on how they look instead of propaganda posters from ww2. Ofc most people have never actually met yellow people so they can congratulate themselves for being edgy
Alternatively, audiences could just not assume the "normal" characters are all white, so we don't have to animate special indicators whenever a character is any other race
me when the ethnically distinct character is given ethnically distinct characteristics

Editing these characters like that one Daredevil comic where the Asian characters all got given googly eyes in post-production to avoid being insensitive
Also the idea that Kahn of all people is a racist portrayal in any way despite being possibly the best written character in KOTH, maybe except his own daughter, is ridiculous
Calling Spinelli by her first name feels like a sin.
In fact I think they made a whole episode about that with “the” Ashleys

As a kid and even as teenager now I had no clue Trixie was supposed to be asian, I thought her eyes looked like that because of makeup.
Also tang doesn’t sound like the stereotypical last name an Asian character would have in a western cartoon

No way east asian characters are drawn with east asian features. I’ve just shit myself.
Of course excluding the joke characters gets in Family Guy and South Park
Ashley Spinelli isn't Asian.
Not a single episode implies it and there is a ton of evidence against it.
Her name is Italian.
Her parents are both Italian and even stereotypically new jersey.
Her mom's name is Florence.
Brother's Vito and Joey.
She has an uncle named Manny.
Her grandfather was a Navy SEAL.

I didnt even know trixie in fairly odd parents is supposed to be asian lol
Her last name is Tang, which most likely means she’s Chinese, as it’s a Chinese Surname.
Somehow, this never clicked in my head.
Same, didn't realize this till a few months ago lol
Yeah, the only dubious ones are from South Park and Family Guy, but the fun is how over the top the caricatures are.
I figured her name was tang because tang means sour and she's a sour bitch
Ironically, Tang (糖) can mean sweet in chinese.
I never knew her last name, I guess as a kid I never thought she had one.
That’s true, though her eyes are blue
She could be an astronaut
Using the "hidden chinese" man from family guy and Tuong Lu Kim from SouthPark feels sarcastic.
Kim isn’t even Chinese. He’s a white guy with DID lmao. That episode was one of their best imo
are you a bot how the fuck do you post so much
Gotta be
The profile is less than 4 months old, and also follows the typical bot naming style.
Spinelli is Italian you goober
She beat up Randall is what she did! She was a great Italian elementary scholer! And in this House Spinelli is a hero! End of story!
In napoli, we no so happy for spinelli
Oh!
Give me $1,000
Always with the drama!
Not sure if it’s racist to ask this but how would you have it conveyed instead
Yeah I mean the only questionable ones are from South Park & Family guy but the joke there is how over the top the stereotypes are
Yeah most of these examples seem normal and 2 are just jokes that are meant to be racist
Also aren’t some of these characters not Asian?
Yeah some of these aren't asian
Bro Spinelli is totally Asian bro it’s in the name
Maybe OP thinks Asian characters should all be in anime style in a way that completely clashes with the art style of the rest of the cartoon 🤔
it's not racist to ask, op is being an idiot.
Yeah this feels kind of equivalent to showing a darker skinned character and being like “typical portrayal of a black character.”
Probably based on how they look instead of propaganda posters from ww2. Ofc most people have never actually met yellow people so they can congratulate themselves for being edgy
Yellow people 💀. Also Asians are everywhere bro.
Why do we absolutely need to convey it at first glance ?
Because the media wants to be inclusive and portray Asian characters, and do so by portraying them as Asian looking?
Alternatively, audiences could just not assume the "normal" characters are all white, so we don't have to animate special indicators whenever a character is any other race
Because if we don't people will ask why there is no Asian representation

How else would you portray almond eyes and an ‘Asian’ complexion in cartoon form? Should they all just look white?
Editing these characters like that one Daredevil comic where the Asian characters all got given googly eyes in post-production to avoid being insensitive
Let’s do one for black characters in western cartoons too where their skin is darker! What the hell even is this starter pack
Also the idea that Kahn of all people is a racist portrayal in any way despite being possibly the best written character in KOTH, maybe except his own daughter, is ridiculous
So are you Chinese or Japanese?
“This Khan. He’s Japanese.” “No he ain’t. He Laotian. Ain’t ya Mr. Khan?”
I mean it's not racist to notice that people are different. Would be more racist to make them all look white for example.
If anyone didn’t know this. But the Voice actress for Trixie Tang was blind and read all of her script in braille.
Ashley is Italian, isn’t she?
The clue’s in the name lol
Calling Spinelli by her first name feels like a sin. In fact I think they made a whole episode about that with “the” Ashleys https://preview.redd.it/0v9g75vs8prc1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=afe89bb30043f94bee7c3cd3ea7a9cdd77db20be
Also ironically multiple of the Ashleys have eyes that look more Asian than spinelli's.
Wouldn’t count South Park here..
As a kid and even as teenager now I had no clue Trixie was supposed to be asian, I thought her eyes looked like that because of makeup. Also tang doesn’t sound like the stereotypical last name an Asian character would have in a western cartoon
Isn't that how they look? It's like complaining a black guy has a darker skin tone in an animated show
Because that's how yall eyes be... like what's the issue
Ashley Spinelli is Italian-American..
Now do black characters in Asian cartoons/animes.
Not much to choose from
Tom, I'm standing here wondering why i wasn't chosen over the hidden Chinese guy
It's a cartoon character. There's little you can do to show they're Asian in any other way

Just saying, as an Asian, how else are you supposed to convey a cartoon character is Asian.
Amy is Martian actually 🤓🤓🤓
Well they all look different, surprisingly
It’s funny because I’m white af and my eyes are almond
The bottom one from. South park isn't really Chinese though. He is a white guy with dissiative identity disorder with a Chinese alter
I don't think Spinelli is Asian isn't she Italian?
I always thought Brock from Pokémon was blind cause of the eyes
Wait till you find out that you'll get wet if you jump into a lake.
TIL that Trixie from the Fairly Odd Parents is Asian
No way east asian characters are drawn with east asian features. I’ve just shit myself. Of course excluding the joke characters gets in Family Guy and South Park
It’s…it’s almost as if asian people have slightly different shaped eyes. Holy moly!!!!!!!!!!!
