Afterall most American's aren't blond and being ex army, I don't consider myself that ignorant. It's also funny to watch how many Americans are fluent in Japanese, we all know that isn't true. I know the same amount of Japanese that every American knows...Toyota, Sony, Honda...
True, anime portrayals of foreigners definitely aren't the best. Not only anime, but media in general tend to make foreigners the enemies.

I have to say, though... You might not know that much Japanese, but not every American is like that. Maybe most, but not every.
