NIOH stars WHITE AMERICAN SAILOR william who becomes a SAMURAI/NINJA but is exempt from all internet HATE that tom cruise got from the last samurai!

why does it make it okay to white wash japanese culture when just because its a game made in japan?

Well, it was based on the life of William Adams, an English sailor, so it makes sense for him to be a white guy.

The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes. That's fact.
Everything else, is theory.

I thought he was English not American. Doesn't the game take place n the 1600's?

The Tom Cruise thing was always stupid, anyone who saw the damn movie knows that he wasn't considered a samurai but was more like "Guy who happened to see the last samurai make a final stand".

Yeah I think the confusion was helped by a lot of people not realizing that the plural of samurai is samurai.

Why would they get bitchy over something that doesn't exist. Hell in manga and anime they make a lot of the characters white then they get butthurt when a white person gets cast for the white character in a live action adaptation. "They stayed true to the source material? How dare they!"

Those characters normally aren't supposed to be white. If a character is white in anime they normally make a big deal about how they're foreign and say things like "wow their japanese is so good."

Really? Most of the characters in attack on Titan are white, most of the characters in dbz are white, the digidestined are white, ash is white, need I go on?

Especially since unova.

They draw them white but see them as Asian. We see them as white because in our western cultures we view white people as the default.
