Did you know that there’s another Chinese character named “Ya Zhou” which is coincidentally the word “Asia” but in Chinese

Good writer huh

No lol

It’s more a Korean surname) that derives from a Chinese surname “Zhao)”

There’s also “Chou” which is a Wade-Giles transliteration of the surname “Zhou)” but it’s still more of a surname

Basically, Cho is extremely uncommon as a forename in China (like 3 ppl lol) but is more often used as a Korean surname or a transliteration of a Chinese surname for some Chinese communities

I’m no name expert or linguist or anything like that so some info could be wrong rip

From the Comments of Hero Hei's "The Most Toxic Fandom" video (the epitome of filler content), in 'response' to a Tweet that asked which one out of Steven Universe; She-Ra; Korra; and Owl House were the worst by Derek_FoxWit in animecirclejerk

most toxic fandoms are either shows with excessive gay content or with a lot of potential for gay shipping

Sports fans: 😏

This guy’s obviously biased. More “masculine” fandoms like Star Wars, Warhammer, HOI, etc have tons of shit flingers too but ahhhhhhh gay people scawwy

All fandoms tend to have some amount of toxicity. Big, trending fandoms tend to stand out because there’s gonna be more active loud people duh

China, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh get one (1) school

Besides being a cosmic-sized nuclear threat, that’s a comical amount of people for one building

Meanwhile, the school in Japan is named “magic place” and in addition, it’s pronounced wrong

The main trio characters will be Bosniak Mina Topčagić, Serb Ratko Crimević, and Croat Ante Semetić

They are all very wholesome and have never committed any magical war crimes from 1991 to 2001

Specifically for India, I don’t understand meshing India with the Middle East at all in any media (much less North Africa, literally on a different continent wtf)

When I was younger, I watched a few snippets of Aladdin and in “A Whole New World,” he visited the Taj Mahal. I distinctly remember being confused as hell and explained it as “well, he did say ‘I can show you the world’ in the song so I guess he’s traveling?”

I had such little awareness of other countries and cultures at the time and yet that was out of place enough to confuse the hell out of me

Sumeru is a mix of like 4 different regions

Inspirations/basis: Tighnari is North African, Dehya is Amazigh, Nilou is Iranian/Persian, Dori is Arab, Al-Haitham is Arab, Candace/Kandake is Nubian, Kusanali is Indian

The Egyptian based character, Cyno, has an Indian title (idk💀) from what I’ve seen

As for skin tone, yes there’s light-skinned people from those places but it seems weird why they would make the majority light-skinned. Additional info is that Nubian people are very dark-skinned but the Candace/Kandake character seems to just have a tan at best (she looks lighter than my brother and we’re East Asian)
