I know the makers of Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo, but that guy at 0:32 looks a lot like Spike from Bebop [the hair], so I'm real interested to see who that character is supposed to be in Michiko to Hatchin. * . *!
OH. & you guys should really give the previous anime a try, -especially- Cowboy Bebop. It's been one of my favorite anime, you should give it a try. :)
Every video with a black person in it always gotta have some drama in the comments section lol. This woman is black, just like Yoruichi from Bleach is Black too :)
It's all conjecture since the show doesnt really get into it (not relevent to the story)...but she's definately mulatto in the way that a lot of Brazilians in the favela are mixed.
Regardless, she's a wonderful character:P Love that show.
I hate how underrated this show is it's so good & it's very rare because most anime have main charcter that's either japanese or european or they just look caucasian in general it's so rare to find a badass main character in a good story who's a woman and doesn't turn useless or helpless & dark skinned without being a stereotype but not just that the story makes you want to know what will happen next after each episode I recommend this to people who love action anime x3
to me there is a cobination of culture in this anime. south and central american, also japanese.Its a lil bit of everybody which is beautiful! it's not a real time and place.She has almond shaped eyes and there are black women with hair thats not kinky. she's just a modern woman..i think she's a beautiful character and the people sayin dumb stuff are obviously ignorant and need to do some damn research before the start insinuating.
@lawyerinfuture well black people have different eye colors, like green,gray, hazel. so you just cant say all black ppl have brown eyes. Thats like sterotyping in a way. like if i would have said white people aways have blue eyes, but im not being racist beacause people have different eye colors
@bratzchickfromspace ur right i'm not bad or anything its jst that all my folks have brown eyes and i don't see much other black people with differnt color eyes but ur right
i honestly don't care if she's black, afro-latino (arn't they black anyway?), armenian, middle eastern, are alien as long as she's dark skinned and hot i'm a-okay
This anime is Brazil inspired. Here in Brazil we are the most : Caucasian/Black/Japanese. It's just like rucial said. There's a lot of people like michiko, they are: japanese+indian so they get straight black hair and asian eyes, plus dark skin tone. Well, I'm half Chinese, half indian. Lol it's a mix here in brazil.
The story takes place in Republica dominica. Well you can see it on their false passeport. But maybe it's a melting pot of south amerca's country!^^ More important, I don't understand why all caracters have japanese name...???^^ However one of my favourite anime. Great job by Manglob as in Samouraï champloo. And I think it's not very often that you can see a non-white first caracter in a japanese anime...
i dont care what she looks like. i just like the fact that she kicks fuckin ass :3 she could be purple with green hair and come from the sea. idont see why people are making such a big deal about what she looks like. thanks for posting this, i already watched all the episodes and its awsome!
They look more afro-latino then black to be honest, and their country looks something like Puerto rico, i mean they have a Place called San Juan. It's def got allot of Latin Influence, Look at the police cars they say "Policia" And allot of Hispanic sounding names their. FFs one of the main cherecters Last name is "Morenos" Brazil, Pr, Dr place like that.. Deffiantly
Nothing to do with black people from America like "The boondocks" So stop your bitching. This anime is fucking awesome.
There are Blacks in South and Central America and all over the world. I think its stupid when people say Black as if only African-Americans are Black. Slave boats from Africa reached not only the shores of the USA but also the rest of the Americas and Europe too. As for Michiko, I've read the setting of the anime is Brazil (or Brazil inspired) so seeing how dark her skin and other features, its not so far-fetched to assume that her character represents a Black native of Brazil or Latin America.
@Starseed153 thank you for your clarification. believe it or not in this "information era", there are still individuals with access to the internet who are still dumb as boards.
@Starseed153 You actually believe blacks reached the other continents on slave boats? Thats pathetic, study harder please.. They really need to teach more of the truth in schools.
Scenario used in the series is based in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The same director of Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo. Soundtrack of genius Shinichiro Watanabe.
Ergo Proxy is the same company too but just the Charakter Design is from Kazuto Nakazawa, who maked Samurai Champloo Character-Design too but it's the director that have to choose the profile of the Charakters...I know watanabe is not the director of Michiko..., just the music director or something like that.
Awesome anime, in an awesome country.
