I love the special heartsplosion icon and the orbital strike one. Bought the heart one for my friend and the orbital strike for myself now when we beat fools in URF we do it in style. |

Lighting skin tones of darker colored characters(and people) is def racist. |

Someone explain me why that Zhurong picture is now racist after Koei has lightened and darkned skin tones for their characters for years and no one says anything. Is it just because they decided to do that for their April Fools' "joke"? |

I've said something. Zhurong's alt costume does the same thing and is still def racist. But whatever, just being my usual lvl 100 SJW self. :) |

No it isn't. It says nothing about different races. Explain to me how it is racist if it makes no commentary whatsoever on any particular race? There also already is a white Zhurong in the games. It's based off her ROTK design. The bigger problem with the Koei April Fool's Day Joke is that it's not funny or clever. Edited by Rance, Wed Apr 1, 2015 10:19 pm.

If Disney released a picture of Tiana like ten shades lighter than her usual self, do you think there would be an uproar? (Pssst, there would be. Cuz it's racist) It's colorism, discrimination based on the darkness of one's skin tone. (also, psssst colorism=racism) Skin whitening and skin bleaching is a thing BECAUSE of this. The near worldwide idea that lighter > darker. Believe it or not, people are still actively harassed over darker skin tones. This is extremely prevalent in Asia. This skin whitening may be a crap joke to you but it upholds the idea mentioned beforehand and it's erasure of Zhurong's darker skin color since darker skinned Asian people/characters aren't really that present in media. Read things like these Spoiler: click to toggle It's hella racist. But I digress.

I don't care about Mewtwo as a character, but he was promised to me. I believe promises should be kept.

Who gives a crap about Smash Bros DLC they need to talk about the new Fire Emblem. You know, the actual good stuff. |

I disagree, personally. I don't think throwing out a lighter skin tone Zhurong implies anything whatsoever about race. I agree that showing a darker skinned character as white does cause an uproar, but I think that's because people are ****ing retarded. It's not because the act itself is racist. The problem with your argument, in my opinion, is that it's argumentum ad populum: because many people get upset about something, you're saying it's inherently upsetting. I disagree with that. People have a knee jerk reaction when it comes to anything regarding skin color. You could make Elmer Fudd black and people would immediately decry it as racist, regardless of whether Elmer Fudd was any different as a black man than as a white man. I completely fail to see how making Zhurong whiter discriminates against darker skinned people. It does not imply anything whatsoever about darker skinned or whiter skinned people, nor is Koei implying that one design is better than another. Personally, I think she looks better with a tan. The whiter design is just an alternate (tasteless and stupid) design. The irony behind everything that you're saying is that to me it sounds like you are the one making an assumption that lighter>darker. This is not at all apparent from Koei simply throwing out a picture of a lighter Zhurong in which they made ABSOLUTELY ZERO COMMENT whatsoever implying that the lighter skin is preferable.
