Ahh, I see you're referring to the 1000% racist name Darkshine has in the anime.

Hello their traveler. I see you and others are debating on tiers and scalings.
Take a rest from debating and vibe with rover.

I want to see thatNew calc where I found the fragmentation value per cubic meter of Boros' ship (instead of just multiplying the volume like MARVEL Future Fight Gamer) puts his released form at 38.9 Exatons. (Haven't posted it yet. Might or might not)

Darkshine isn't any better, black sperm literally called him a gorilla too, the racism is clear in both anima and manga

Reach... do you think if darkshine was white, they'd call him that?
- 7,592

No, my judgement is based on historical stereotypes, Don't even try to shift it on meI mean you are the one making the "black person = gorilla" comparison here

Do you people realize that darkshine is a white guy who makes his entire hero name and personality around having dark skin
I mean come on

I know that, but there's clear racial stereotypes going on

Darkshine is Asian. They can have dark skin as well.

True but it's a play on the stereotype

Exactly

Wait wtf. Bro that's ****** up. I just assumed that he's African. Guess that explains his pale skin color as a kid, but I just kind of thought it was an art mistake or meant to contrast with his darker, shinier current physique.
I could accept the Black Sperm's racist comment because, well, he's the villain. He can say whatever racist shit he wants because in the end, I'm supposed to hate his guts and view him as irredeemable. (Not that I think villains should be saying racist things regardless, I just think that's excusable in this one instance.)
I'm heavily conflicted now. I kind of was put off when Atomic Samurai said the F slur, but it was like half a decade ago and AS is an asshat so I ignored it, but like, it's pretty hard to overlook this.

Black sperm becomes stronger the more white he gets so I can accept headcanoning him as racist

His name is a reflection of his hero name. He has dark skin that shines. So they call him darkshine. Try not to look too deep into it.
- 7,592
- 4,747
When did he say it?
- 7,592
- 4,747
Can't really not look deep into it with all the implications tbh
But yeah, not the first Japanese product to have such a thing
Look at dragon ball
