I mean, this is one where you don’t have to make up an example.The only Asian character in the books is named Cho Chang.

And the movie portrayal was character assassination implying she was the one who ratted out Dumbledore’s Army.

Fuck I forgot about that. Those movies kinda suck ass past the first two.

In the book snowcraah by Neil Stephenson the main character is named “Hiro Protagonist”. Yes it’s a real book, and one of my favorites, by a real author.

I like it, as a person who doesn’t really pay attention to most names in fiction, and primarily focuses on the story it’s trying to tell.
Don’t make it too obvious like “Busty LoveInterest” and “Villain McMustashface”.

If you like techno-fantasy I highly recommend snowcrash. For years I’ve wanted a game of the first chapter, basically a guy is delivering pizza but gas is really expensive so all he has is a skateboard and a harpoon gun with an electromagnet. He basically shoots the harpoon at cars and gave them pull him towards the destination, it sounds like a cool video game like a race but you don’t control speed only which car you are connected to.
Don’t worry that didn’t spoil anything. The book goes into a totally different direction with technology and science.

The difference is that’s trying to be stupid and funny. Rowling is just, I don’t know, lazy, or uncreative, or racist. One, or multiple, of those at least.

It’s not a direct connection to Rowling but I was just pointing out another example.

Sorry, it’s snowcrash and I corrected the original comment.

Snowcrash is a satire. That name is supposed to be funny

Could be, I may be wrong but still an awesome book

I bought this book minutes before reading this comment. The AI-captured advernet is here, and they have played me like a fiddle

Nope, I’m not an Ai advert. I read the book and still have it. I hope you like the book. I also recommend a diamond age, also known as a primer for young girls.

You’d think so, but in contrast it exploded within the general public.
