Cyborg 009 original Intro

this is cool i never knew there was a retro virsion of Cyborg 009

無茶苦茶でいいぞ。これは。

cyborg 009 looks so sterotypical of a black man

Yeha about that it was probably due to cultural ignorance, I doubt Ishinomori had racist intentions in this, the character is a well developed one and is actually a serious character and not even an American., and the message was one of peace, if anything it was due to him using American art styles... so yeah.

Times have changed.

sadly yes, but it was probably more due to cultural ignorance more than anything, in fact if you want to see a stereotype here the Chinese one is more offensive than the 008, since his stereotype is one we don't have in the west.

The funny thing is of the three most stereotypical ones, 5 6 and 8 when they remade the show 8 was the only one that got updated by which I mean they made his lips normal sized but 6 still has squinted eyes and 5 still always has war paint on. funny to me and I'm native american

didnt know it was this old but the newer one is still one of my favorite animes

funny how they have to make 008, like blackface, but 009 doesnt even look like hes half japanese

its a show and is on here.

Gonna love that singing voice. : )
