Maybe its a sensative isue (?) even if it is, Im sure everyone here is mature and respectfull enough to talk about it.

the skin color isn't white on anime, on japanese people or on western people.
The "whitest" people i know are people from northern europe. and even those aren't totally white.
Of course there are Japanese people with a more tanned look but all in all their skin color is the same as most western and southeuropean people though :X
It's an interesting point though. But it also depends on the mangaka, most anime characters have a more western look. But not all manga/anime characters have big boobs and are really tall... when the mangaka puts that character next to a westerner, you can really tell the difference between the japanese and the westerner character
