imagine if every soshage had the courage to have at least one old lady
"Black Characters"??? Huh?? Which mythology is that thing from?
I remember maybe 1 year ago when I first saw Chizuko being added in the Chinese version of P5x I thought it was really cool.
She's voiced by Katsuki Masako, a veteran seiyuu. She's the original voices of Sailor Neptune, and of Maya, the protagonist of Glass no Kamen, one of the most influential series of all time you should be watching right now instead of the current hype netflix anime recommended by seo farms, (white) anime youtubers, and (white) anime journalists. I also really like her performances as Reccoa, Athena in Orguss, Shaazara in Dangaiou, the rival girl in Top wo Nerae Gunbuster episode 1, etc.
I barely watched / quickly lost interest reading all the newer popular shonen jump series like jujutsu kimetsu masshuru (Kagurabachi is good though) so I dunno if she's in anything mainstream recently. 15 years ago I could have said "kids these days know her for voicing Tsunade in Naruto" but kids don't know about Naruto anymore either. I think her most mainstream role now must be the tall swordwoman daughter of Big Mom in One Piece.
Pretty funny how Chizuko calls herself 「BBA 」. To be honest usual me wouldn't even find this funny but since older characters are such a rare occurrence...
I want to play p5x at some point. Just extremely casually, mainly focusing on the story, without worrying about dailies, etc. Before then I hope they won't remove the dungeon puzzles, a lot of sociage listen to feedback from morons and end up doing this. And if I get Chizuko then cool, if I don't then whatever. No way in hell I'm swiping. Like I explained back when I was one of the sole games journalist talking about Genshin seriously, or in my latest about Umamusu: never ever spend money to pull in a sociage.
Insha Allah I'll soon get a pitch accepted somewhere, about explaining the racism shaping character designs for 30+ years and how that reflects in sociage chara design. A real explanation of the racism and how deep it goes in stuff like Genshin, using the knowledge I accumulated for decades, instead of doing an nth 4 hours long video essay that goes "woah Natlan in Genshin is so racist, look how leftist I am, check out my video about how if you ever watched a V*uber you're a pdfile".
