The World of Anime Fan Edits

Today I explore another aspect of expressing anime fandom.

The World of Anime Fan Edits

Yeah, that's messed up. The only time I don't like seeing artists make "black versions" is when they personally harass artists for daring to make white versions, at least when it comes to fanart. There's a different debate to be had about racebending iconic characters for official works.

Speaking of people being shamed for basically making a version of themself in a property they really enjoy, Thumin (an artist on twitter got/ still gets) alot of racist hate over an image in which she drew herself in the world of Kiki's Delivery Service. she was accused of "blackwashing" Kiki, because apparently people thought she was making a black version of Kiki even though she had already clarified from the get go that she was doing herself and not redoing Kiki. (people then proceeded to "fix" her work by making racist caricatures of her character. I've come to become very wary of the term "fixing art" because of it. the artist did something she loved and got backlash over it and is still getting it.
