Quote from Mr. sickVisionz

Great topic. I'm glad that at least Japan has progressed to where they don't draw black people like sambo anymore.

Is Yurichi from Bleach black? I used to think she was now i'm not sure if she's supposed to is or if she's Indian (India, not Native American). I think there was a black girl in Eureka Seven, but she was always half naked and seemed kinda slutty.

Sambo...

God, I've not heard that term in a while.

And Yourichi looks SE Asian to me.

No. 7 (Dominic) from the sci-fi manga No. 5. One of the main characters, he's a tall black soldier with a huge afro he keeps a cat in. He's not Japanese though, he lives on some tropical island...

I was ... acquainted with a Cambodian girl, which is why I think Yourichi is SE asian.

In any case, pretty sure Yoruichi's black, since, as stated, Ulquiorra refers to her rather unambiguously as that 'kuro onna', literally 'black woman' (and he'd know; I mean, he's fucking Ulquiorra). Also, we've established rather clearly that Bleach characters may or may not actually possess the features considered typical of their race (Ichigo, Orihime, etc).

Black woman can literally mean 'Woman with dark skin", which she is. Doesn't mean she's black.

That's what I said too. But seems it was irrelevant. 😕

Anyways, no need to nitpick.

He's a beast.
