ive notice this confusion with many non Americans, but just because a design isnt done an insulting manner and is flattering, doesnt mean it isnt a racist caricature. Some of my favorite characters are nothing but an American stereotype

>Localization doesn't imply translation

pretty sure that both on the legal contract and the credits of the game they are referred to a translators not localizers.

the localization concept has its origins in americas xenophobia. they used to ''''fix''''' any non western media to make sure it didn't clash with their world views or simply to insert more of their culture and make it easier to digest.
