Cowboy Bebop & Samurai Champloo creator & director Shinichiro Watanabe’s insistence on incorporating diversity into his creations to reflect the world we live in. This is why he’s bar none my favorite anime creator ever. What a mind.

Excerpts from interviews in both artbooks “Samurai Champloo Roman Album” and “Cowboy Bebop: The Jazz Messengers”

we go to an aquarium. you point out all the fish you like. i jump in the tank and attempt to fight them to win your affection

But then you pick the shark, the god damn apex predator of the ocean. I go in there and try to fight it anyways. I fucking lose though because its a mother fucking shark and instead the shark wins your affection and you two end up getting married. That was 6 years ago and now whenever im on facebook I see how happy you are with your shark husband and shark children. I often think to myself that I never should have fought that shark but then I look and see how happy you are and realize, I wouldn’t change a thing.

Considering he was written to represent Jewish values, he should probably be Middle Eastern.

I’m so here for black Jewish Superman

YES (ps I read is Superman Jewish fyi he is)

Black Jewish Superman? Then we know who needs to play him.

Clark Kent:

And then he changes…

…into Superman.

Can someone please explain

y’all are such petty fuckers istg

Ywah we’re bitter because theres people who try to diversify their style and still get the door slammed on them while people who make same face/body over and over again become “professionals”

Hold on just a minute. 

Do y’all really think sakimi prefers drawing the same thing over and over again? She does it because that’s what the market wants and responds to, and so what pays her bills. I’m sure Sakimi started by drawing a shit ton of other things that also never got noticed.

Just because your super original style or experimental idea didn’t get the notes you wanted doesn’t mean you get to shit on artists who found and stuck to a formula that works. Your lack of success is not a popular artist’s fault.

So I just want to add, because it’s not on this particular version of this post, but those 3 were picked very purposefully to attempt to make a point without even linking to her pages where you can clearly see she does a hell of a lot more than just these which are still very beautiful btw. Not to mention that even in those 3 shown the only similarities are in skin color and maybe body shape literally everything else is unique and requires a tremendous amount of skill and effort. Also I know I don’t really _need_ to add to this post but I’m going to anyway.

So yeah if you don’t care for her stuff, sure fine whatever that’s your deal.
But don’t be a dick and spread half-truths and misinformation
