Should not be linked to Japan

There are many other Asian countries/cultures who believe this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 112.118.244.18 (talk) 09:09, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

yes but those other countries don't make anime and video games so how can we find a reliable source to verify this original research? 99.21.39.161 (talk) 08:43, 24 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

How the hell is being conservative a bad trait? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.226.45.174 (talk) 20:50, 16 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

South Koreans believe in this just as strongly, though I guess the idea originated in Japan. Mayumashu (talk) 10:41, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is also popular in China. We make much less anime (and they are of much lower quality; and they are not called "anime", which is a Japanese word anyway) and video games though. However, we can still try and find some newspaper references to this phenomenon. [[1]] may be worth looking at. Ahyangyi (talk) 02:40, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Was Masahiko Nomi's book really based on Takeji Furukawa's theory? If so, reference and quote is required.

"Interest in the theory faded in the 1930s as its unscientific basis became evident. It was revived in the 1970s with a book by Masahiko Nomi"

In the above first sentence "the theory" refers to the racist theory of Takeji Furukawa explained in previous sections. Therefore "it" in the second sentence refers to the same racist theory. The direct assertion is that Masahiko Nomi's book is based on the theory put forth by Takeji Furukawa. Does Masahiko Nomi's book refer to Takeji Furukawa's work to support this claim? If so, a reference and quote is required. If not, the assertion that Masahiko Nomi's book is based on the theory put forth by Takeji Furukawa should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hicksycle (talk • contribs) 05:07, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Rename as "Blood types in East Asian culture"?

This isn't specific to Japanese culture after all. --Qwerty Binary (talk) 16:08, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Subtle Racism?

Really, the backgrounds for the blood type labels are yellow on a page about Japanese/Asian culture. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.59.87.15 (talk) 02:07, 24 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Good catch, i will change it to red, color of blood. Visite fortuitement prolongée (talk) 19:35, 20 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with this change on aesthetic grounds but isn't this stretching it? Like, a lot?Fritz1776 (talk) 22:03, 4 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
