Recommended Posts

Did you ever watch an anime where the girl is from Japan and her boyfriend or husband is from a different culture. The same goes for a boy too.These kinds of couples I think should not be put in animes. I think the people of the same culture should get marriage or fall in love in animes.

Can anyone give me a good answers why these couples should be put in animes or not. The answer can not be that they are in love or childhood friends. Also tell me what anime you are giving me the answer to my question from.

For example:
In Cardcaptor Sakura, Sakura from Japan and is in love [spoiler]with Li from Hong Kong(China). Li is a transfer student from Hong Kong to Japan, so he could capture the cards Sakura release by accident. I think Li fell in love with Sakura because of her magical powers, just like Yukito(Yue). After all he is engage to Mei Lin since he was very young by their parents. I don't think Mei Lin would of gave up on Li so easliy in real life. But in the anime she did. Or Li's mother just letting him love Sakura of maybe in the future get marry to her.[/spoiler]

Wait a minute-in my opinion you are sounding a little racist?

Why shouldn't cultures be mixed? My brother tells me that in Japan sometimes if someone married outside the culture thay were castout. While I don't know if that's true or not, that would be awful if it was. That's like saying America shouldn't let people come from other countries.

I just don't understand why you say they shouldn't be mixed. Are you okay with mixed marriages in real life? If so-what is the difference?

I am sorry-I should not have posted. I will bow out and let this thread go where it wants.

Added tags for the CCS spoilers.

Well, actually--I think it's harder to assert that such couples should [i]not[/i] be shown in anime. I mean, why not? Do you think it sets a poor example? Is it because you're against that in real life? In CCS alone there's everything from implied homosexuality to a chaste but romantic relationship between a very young girl and her teacher. The couple you mentioned is really the least objectionable in the entire series.

[COLOR=#DarkRed][SIZE=1]Loli, yaoi, yuri, you name it, it's in CCS.

As for your question: inter-racial/nationality pair-ups can produce interesting stories. A lot of creators opt to make stories about misunderstandings that arise from cultural differences which are often funny but are always educational.[/SIZE][/COLOR]
