No no, you misread what I said. I mean the reason they didn’t get a Japanese person to play the red was because they specifically wanted a white guy in the lead role, because they didn’t think that kids would buy toys otherwise. That’s the racist part. Having a Japanese guy playing the red at least would have made vastly more sense.
