You know what I've learned from all this? We need more Muslim characters in manga. Anime smile


I couldn't agree more. Heck, we need more diversity in anime and manga altogether.

It's events like the Jojo scenario that makes it hard to promote diversity.

The saddest part of this is this: By erasing all traces of Muslims in media, we are saying that Muslims aren't accepted outside the Middle East. If we depict Muslims (good and bad) then others label us as racists. The situation with black people is the same thing. How can we promote diversity in an environment like this?
