IF they followed the lore of the Buffy-verse, at the end of BtvS: Season 7.
Every women who could be a Slayer, would be a Slayer. Ergo, literally thousands of women around the World became "Slayers".

I just have to say, the whole "Is race an integral part of their character" is pretty funny, as it turns that no white person's race is essential to the character, ever.

She's not allowed to play a trans character either. That role must go to one of the many avaialble trans actors like...um...Chaz Bono or....Chaz...Bonoooo.

Wasn't aware being white was integral to her character. Wellllll wasn't Buffy originally supposed to be a "parody" in that instead of the blonde cheerleader always being a damsel and killed in horror movies, she was the kickass fighter killing horror monsters? That irony was also why she was called "Buffy". Her type of character would normally be killed in this genre but instead she's a badass fighter. Pretty sure I read something like that a long time ago. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

I don't care about Buffy being whitewashed, but to be fair, GitS was a Japanese creation whereas Buffy wasn't a 'white' creation. It was American, and American includes both white and black people.
Really, though, I wish they'd just continue the story and make her a new slayer, since the world has so much more to explore and we really don't need to rehash out the same story for no reason. Not only that, but I'm sure plenty of the original actors would show up for cameos, especially since they've all been set up as such important parts of the setting. ... Copied to Clipboard!

2018 and people still don't get how turning a white character black is good because it adds representation but turning a black character white is bad because it takes away representation. Adding reprensation by taking it away doesn't count. If you say context is everything, then perspective moderates that context. Rarely are there justified complaints about adding or making new, fully fleshed out characters. --- MHW Supplemental Discord: https://discord.gg/ChHjtYQ https://imgur.com/QL6WJAl https://imgur.com/lGlcDyU ...

This excuse (which is all it is) would work alot better if black people weren't already over represented in media. If you were actually interested in being fair, you'd be promoting a Hispanic or Asian lead. Since they actually are underrepresented. --- One bourbon,one scotch,one beer ... Copied to Clipboard!
