The 3 most biggest reasons Why Asians Have To Be The One Cosplaying Anime Characters are :
1. Racism, when an american, western or other non Asians trying to cosplay as OUR Anime characters will mostly end looked like someone who wish to be Asian because we Asians made OUR Anime characters based on our Asians facial and body form which results on how most of our Anime characters also cute and adorable like the majority of us Asians. Surely the definition of cute Asian, cute american, cute westerner and cute non Asians are deferent so even if there is any cute american, westerner, or non Asians who cosplay our Anime characters then they will still look nothing like our Anime characters because again we Asians made our Anime characters based on our Asians facial and body form and not based on american, westerner or non Asians facial and body form.
An Asian who have pride as an Asian or an Asian who are proud to be Asian will surely offended when someone who is not Asian making fun of Asians and that is what most non Asians cosplayers who cosplay Anime character committed. Not just making fun of Asians in appearance but also causing harm to OUR Anime industry, bad cosplay are the same as bad advertise of what being cosplayed. OUR Anime have hundreds millions fans world wide which is why it is very important to keep their fantasy fresh with good cosplay to keep them loyal to OUR Anime.

2. The american, western or non Asians who cosplay as Anime characters will mostly end saying bad stuff about us Asians especially about OUR cosplayers such as by saying OUR cosplayers faking [ photoshoped ] their cosplay pictures to look awesome while the real reason is those american, western or non Asian are just jealous and desperate of how OUR cosplayers who cosplay Anime characters were far much more popular because OUR cosplayers who cosplay as Anime characters were able to resemble the Anime characters facial and body form they cosplayed.

3. Causing pain to millions fans of Anime who are a fans or lover of OUR Anime characters, before you american, westerner or non Asians cosplaying you must remember the most important part that is you are going to dress as a character with millions of fans which is why you must not surprised when you get many peoples mad at you if you did it badly or you must not shocked when many peoples turn to be your fans when you did it goodly.
There are some other reasons which better read on the video.

So, does this include Cosplaying anime characters who are obviously not Asian in origin...

(e.g. Afro of Afro Samurai, Belldandy of Ah My Goddess, Chad of Bleach) or is a Asian cosplaying a non-asian role the equivalent of a white-actor in black-face playing a black role...

Also, with a username, signature and location like that it's going to be hard for you to sound believable in a discussion like this.

As a matter of fairness, there appears to be a rebuttal YouTube Video posted...

Re: Why Asians Have To Be The One Cosplaying Anime Characters

-sigh- Even though I am Japanese myself. I have to say I strongly disagree with this article...trust me some of these cosplayers that non-asian can look very good. The only good thing about Asians cosplaying anime characters is that we already have the physical features similar...but other than that we are all pretty much in the same level.

=_____=l This is just a racist article...

Re: Why Asians Have To Be The One Cosplaying Anime Characters

Honestly, you just make yourself sound so full of yourself. Have you, yourself, created any of the anime, that we Americans or anyone else you mention, like? You keep mention we this and we that, but I see nothing that you have showed us tells us that you, yourself(besides being an almighty Asian), have created anything (besides this thread, with your statement). Just because many people like to cosplay, for enjoyment I may add, gives you no right to claim anime as your own. These anime are lienced to people around the globe. Other people have a right to cosplay if they want, whether they look right or not. Would you like to take anime away from us? Is that it? Might I add that Asians too do things that are "non-Asian" as well.

I also like to agree with Len. There are plenty of anime which is based off of "non-asian" themes. I would also like to add Chrono Crusade. One of my favorite anime. It was based in America, along with other things.

I cannot understand people who think they are so superior because their country has created something big. Strut around like they are so good or something. It's people like you who don't understand just because your country has created something like anime, gives you no right to say things about others. I know others, such as Americans, do that, which shames me, but if we can learn to understand, then we are one step closer to a better world.

Well there is my rant. I couldn't help myself......>.<

Re: Why Asians Have To Be The One Cosplaying Anime Characters

If everyone thought like that then I'd be boasting about how people should be nicer to black people because a bunch of us play good basketball or because we had a ton of wonderful jazz composers. You don't see a bunch of white people saying to appreciate them because of something that Walt Disney created. **FYI: I'm not that great at basketball.** >_<

My point is that this debate is entirely one-sided, considering that no matter what we say; you're gonna disagree with us. (Judging by your user name and sig.)

Re: Why Asians Have To Be The One Cosplaying Anime Characters

Has anyone noticed that most anime characters look white anyways, what with multicolored hair, peach skin, and eyes that are NOT brown or black?
