This is meant to be funny, and I guess it's not bad, but mostly it makes me think how sad it is that we're so afraid of accidentally saying something with Implications, and that jokes that reference sex are treated as some horrifying transgressive thing?
Once again Sex Makes Everything Worse.
I'm so tired of it.

I feel like there's a complicating factor I don't see addressed a lot that... not every darker-skinned character in anime-manga is meant to be black/African? There are darker skinned Japanese people. I was specifically thinking of this about Yoruichi here. I don't know, IS she meant to be black?
If someone was commenting about "black characters" with say, Hattori Heiji, I'd be looking at them funny.
And I have to admit that, frankly, I don't know enough to say exactly what characters are not meant to be black in plenty of cases. But sometimes I wonder if some are getting miss-identified.
Still overall a good video and it's nice to get the perspective.

God I love when people drag people and objects from one end of a game world to another that aren't meant to be taken that far.
I should go rewatch the saga of Trolley-chan from HL2 again sometime.
