No, no NO! Studio Ghibli (or whoever was responsible in handing over rights to OUR story)! WHY would you do that?!
The animation version was really good and devestating already, and this whitewashing is going to be devestating in a VERY terrible way, because it focuses on the 'Poor White people' narrative again! Nevermind that POCs have it hard, and NEVER have our stories told, and get one-sided villianized!

Not seeing this if it EVER goes through!

anime, goddamn it hollywood, oh god..., asian-american thoughts
