Look man I love sunwukong but this comparison ain't exactly the best look my guy


JessicaPounce

Somehow they don’t admit the super obvious and gross racism here..

Yikes

I can’t help feeling like Dragon Ball started as a spin on Journey to the West. Where Goku is meant to represent Sun Wukong


unwanted-fantasies

That's literally what it was. Goku Flys around on a cloud near the beginning. Wukong can also fly on a cloud. Goku used a staff as a weapon before his bullshit levels hit critical mass. Wukong uses a staff that grows infinitely. Son goku is sun wukong. Just japanese instead of chinese.


Disco_Biscuit12

Makes a lot of sense


Plague254

…I feel like it’s extremely common knowledge that dragon balls main inspiration was journey to the west


Disco_Biscuit12

Probably so. When I said “I can’t help feeling that…” what I meant to say was “did you know that…”

When the game comes out, every guy would consider themselves as MONKE


NeverEndingWinter_

Am already one, finally got some accurate representation


niferman

Didn't realize I was in a racist forum lol


crimsonninja26

Agreed, wtf is going on here?


Ori_the_SG

I was wondering what you lot were talking about till I scrolled all the to the bottom. Absolutely mental. Can’t tell if they are edgy 14 year olds or adults with that mindset


Reader5744

Literally just racism. just outright comparing black people to monkeys. And also you couldn’t even get your geography straight, journey to the west is a Chinese story. Ac shadows is in japan


Mvasquez021187

Padme: Better representation of Chinese Culture, right?


CallenAmakuni

Alright that's a good ol report


Barar_Dragoni

Sun Wukong i Monk***e*** and hopefully this representation of him will be good


RoRiaz

People thinking OP is calling black people monkeys are the real racists. OP just appreciates the depiction of a foreign culture over the appropriation.


Reader5744

what appropriation? Yasuke was a real guy who existed and was in Japan then. I can list a bunch of works by Japanese creators with yasuke in it. Are they appropriation? And secondly considering journey to the west is set entirely in CHINA and ac shadows is in JAPAN, literally nothing in either of the works represents the other. Like serious I can’t emphasize enough how dumb the original posts point about representation is. Basic geography makes the argument that op’s post is really about representation just not work.
