There are some animes which have very clear and distinct racial markers. Perfect blue or Akira for example.

- ZkhqrD5o@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago- fluffykittycat@slrpnk.net 3 weeks ago- The more abstract moéblob stuff is the most ethnically ambiguous. Skin tone is the most explicit you get - Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 1 week ago- even then i feel like anime skin tends to be either so white you worry about their blood cell count, or the most unspecific shade of brown imaginable. 
 
 
- ragebutt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks ago- I think it’s just a byproduct of animation. The simpsons don’t necessarily look like any specific ethnicity either - aBundleOfFerrets@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago- Yellow… 🤤🤤🤤

It 100% is. Like one of the best aspects of non descript stylization is self insertation!
