Do you know any mangas with good black representation ? Namely characters with black features because I feel it can be really tricky to implement them without seeming racist.

I think you can add black characters in manga without seeming racist!

Some manga with black rep would be

Hunter x Hunter (Canary)

JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure (Muhammad Avdol)

Michiko & Hatchin (Michiko is actually inspired by late black artist Aaliyah)

Cowboy Bebop (Coffee)

Bleach (Kaname Tōsen)

Soul Eater (Kiriku Rungu)

Naruto Shippuden (Karui Akimichi and Omoi)

Fire Force (Ogun Montgomery)

Afro Samurai (Afro Samurai)

Carole and Tuesday (Carole Stanley)

Honorable and very good mentions:

Attack on Titan (Onyankopon)

The Great Pretender (Dorothy)

Canon Busters (Created by a black man with black leads)

Witch Hat Atelier (Jujy)

Haikyuu!! (Aran Ojiro)

Sword Art Online (Agil)

Re-Main (Yutaka Babayaro Inomata)

And there are a few others too! I feel like anime and manga SHOULD add black characters without being racist or having weird and racist designs. I think anime and manga is moving in the right direction when it comes to black rep. And people should not be afraid to add characters like that. Many anime fans are black and love to see themselves!

Also a good account that posts black rep and dark skin rep would be @Blackanimechar on twitter (they haven’t posted since 2022) but it’s still good to look at

I believe the more diverse an anime is the better!

My Talk: Yuri On Ice

Can you hear my heart beat? Anyway, this anime has exploded everyone with amazing story and ice skating. This is the reflection of Yuri On Ice.

Yes, this website is how and the reason why I watched the show. The end of 2016 was nothing but gay ice skating. My friends also told me to check it out. I gave in, so I headed to the ice rink.

Plot: Here, we meet Yuri Katsuki, a Japanese figure skater who takes a break from ice staking after a crushing defeat the Grand Prix Final and goes to this hometown. After doing a routine from his idol, Russian figure skater Victor Nikiforov, that gets secretly recorded and goes on the Internet, Victor goes to Yuri’s hometown and becomes Yuri’s coach. This leads to a series of competition, love, and ice skating.

Characters: There are a lot of characters in Yuri On Ice. Too many that a season couldn’t cover everyone with fair screen time. So, we’re doing a lighting round. Yuri Katsuki is an anxious ice skater who loves pork cutlet. Victor Nikiforov is an ice skater as well, but puts it on hold to coach Yuri. Yuri “Yurio” Plisetsky is an angsty teen with a bad attitude and a passion to ice skate. More characters include Yoko and Taksehi with their three triplets, Minako, Otabek, Guang-Hong, Chris, JJ, Phichit, Mickey, and many characters and ice skaters.

Animation and ice skating: The animation is done by MAPPA. Anytime an ice skater perform, the routine was choreographed by a real-life ice skater. Each perform took a lot of time to animate. There was a new animation format used to animate the character skating. I’m not particularly a fan of ice skating. I tried before but fail miserably and ended up hurting my ankles. Now, I’m not saying ice skating is stupid. However, this show made me appreciate those who do skate on ice. It must be challenging to not only skate on ice, but perform your heart’s content for a competition. I see that ice skating is a graceful sport where people express their emotions through skating. Thanks to this show, I begin seeing how awesome ice skaters are. 

Yamamoto and Kubo: Quick background on these two. Sayo Yamamoto is an anime director responsible for creating her own show, Michiko and Hatchin. She also directed Lupin the Third: The Woman Called Fujiko Mine. Kubo is recent in anime world, and she has written manga like Moteki and Again!! These two women has swept the anime world with their love of ice skating. This duo has already broke so much fans with their excellent writing and characters. I admire Yamamoto for her direction on creating stories with diverse and a woman being the lead, and Kubo for telling a story about ice skating and added romance in the mix. 

“We need more.”: Originally in this section, I was talking about how I hope the success of Yuri On Ice will get them a second season because I want more from the characters and seeing Victor and Yuri again as a beautiful couple. Also, I mention the announcement of the movie, which on April 19th was cancelled and no longer happening. I wrote this post back in 2017 and kept it in my drafts for years because I was waiting for the movie to come out. I’m quite upset because it’s been over 7 years when they announced the movie. I feel for the cast and crew of the movie because they really care about the story and still admire the impact Yuri On Ice made. So, the future of Yuri On Ice is up in the air. I don’t want say it’s never coming back because things can happen, but it seems like we’ll never know what the next level is. Still, for what the show did and gave MAPPA the platform to finally work on other well-known project, you can’t deny that Yuri On Ice was one of the biggest influence for anime in the 2010s.

Yuri On Ice does make me appreciate the art of figure skating. This is my first sports anime, and it did make me admire those who ice skate for a living. The show continues to be praise for its portray for ice skating, LGBT+ representation, and splendid animation. It’s not be the greatest anime, but Yuri on Ice skated their ways to our hearts.

Michiko Malandro, from, "Michiko & Hatchin"! She's a cool crazy, kickbutt character 😗👊💥 It's a very colourful show, the music is cool, but it is an edgy and heavy anime! :0

[hhartte]

So anyways, Michiko to Hatchin is the best anime of all time, with the greatest ending of all time and nobody can convince me otherwise. Whether you ship them (post-series of course) or see them as just friends, it’s so refreshing to see an anime where the most important relationship is between two women, 

It’s also great that the moral of the story is that living for men is stupid and pointless: women need to live for themselves and for wholesome, fulfilling relationships with each other (again, whether platonic or romantic)

(Wanted to play with lighting, so this is also a half-assed first attempt at that)

What do you think?
