Not sure why the white people always think Anime characters are all drawn based on white people but I think it is easy to tell apart Asian and White....

Apart from the obvious names and cultural background which the artist already indicated who are the characters are based off... the looks are also different when they decided to draw a white character compared to asian...


Asian Anime Characters







White Anime Characters







The nose bridge for Asian anime characters are mostly either drawn to be narrow or low whereas white characters have high nose bridge and they are very prominent ...

The jaw shape for Asian anime characters are mostly V shape or very sharp chin... whereas white characters have broad jawline or squarish chin....

You can see clearly that the artist doesn't draw white characters to look like the usual anime characters...
