As we all know, there is a green-haired family and the doctor is green-haired and MAY be the daddy(or his evil twin), BUT, why are so many characters created with distinctly artificial traits(like hair color) to be running naturally(and unexplained) in the family or even in the society?
Take for example, in almost every animé I've watched and every manga I've read, the heroin(less often hero) is blonde with light eyes and light skin. This is never explained, she is Japanese to everybody else, since her mom and some of her of family is blonde with blue eyes, i guess it is somehow accepted. And Curly, she is a robot different from the others, and the love interest, no doubt!
I have to ask, do Japanese(or even people in general) prefer some one to be of the "Arian" race? This may sound incredibly racist/insane/automatic NO, but being a brown-eyed brown-haired person who admires anybody with such traits...
Side question: Why are there always token "sexy" ladies, let's call them "Mai Valentines", in each show, often blonde or redheads, with unimaginably enormous busts?
