miss me with the Dragonball z slander the huge lip guys are aliens and an actual genie. There are normal black characters in a world where everyone is ambiguously Asian and dinosaurs still exist. 

Funnily enough I think you're incorrectly assuming I read your previous comments. No. That one comment sounded really bad all on it's own, re-read it.

I do agree that continuing this seems to be pointless because to me, it seems like you are still ignoring obviously intended implications just so you can say only the racist and and offensive depictions are black people while simultaneously saying you wouldn't notice a black person if they weren't a racist stereotype

Rok@Ja-y JTBD For the usual representation in manhwa, they don't have to explicity say "ameri

first and foremost it sounds really bad for you if the only times you've identified characters as black is when it was racist.

Next. In my time of reading manwha for more than 3 years, I've seen several black character (I don't know how many because I don't count my black people). Some with affros some with straight hair. Main thing all of the time they are drawn to fit the art style of the story.
Real people don't actually have single point noses, but they do in manwha because it's easier and prettier the less details there are in someone's face. The only time to add more detail is for a joke, dramatic effect or to make someone older/uglier except for the occasional distinctive detail like scars (which normally ended up fading away).

In most manwha I've read, they don't mention specific real life race at all. This is just commonly how the genre functions. There's no Asians, there's people from the empire, there's no Americans, there's blue eyed, blonde haired people from a foreign nation, there's no black people, there's darker skinned people of the desert. Basically everyone is drawn from the same basic style with superficial differences 

You're purposely ignoring the obviously intended implications and somehow, according to your comment, only acknowledging someone as black "where it's pretty racist". You've got to understand how bad that sounds. I'm not calling you racist but that sounds like someone with internalised racism, and yes black people can get that, I had that when I was a teenager.

Also, don't bring culture into this because that doesn't actually support your point unless you go with the surface level, one-note view of ignorance common in racists.
On a more serious note.

Rok@Ja-y JTBD You're greatly misunderstanding something. In my 3 years of trying countless ma

there's a solid chance I'm going to regret making this comment a month from now. 

Honestly I don't think his appearance is that bad, for a fictional story of this genre. I'm black, me and my sister have relatively pale skin and have had both straight and curly hair, both of my brothers have also had straight hair, it wasn't that hard to do. I've also had blonde hair and my siblings have thinner noses than me. Both my parents are black immigrants, that shouldn't matter but I'm adding it just case someone hits some bs like saying "you're not black enough"

I dislike the fetishism of black men that this genre seems to enjoy but what you're describing are stereotypes that not all black men have; you putting them in a box of only being allowed to have certain features might also be harmful.

I'm not going to read the rest of this story cause I personally didn't like it or the comments but if he is black, you saying he can't be because he doesn't fit your personal views of black people is also terrible in a similar but opposing way

As a tangent you can also complain about the lady having no nose, being pale as paper and having the body of a model despite being an average tutor, etc. There's a whole host of bs beauty standards to complain about that this genre really loves using despite being caustic if applied to real life

Re-reading this, I think I understand what original litia meant. She knew the decision new litia would have to make after finding out the truth. That'd both be harder to deal with the crown Prince and she'd likely choose the option of litia doesn't want
