Asian marvel characters appreciation

[RLAAMJR.]

Jubilee top choice
Lady Deathstrike
Silver samurai
Daken.

Polls missing Yukio and Amiko lol

Jubilee takes the lead.

Oh wow I didn't expect jubilee to do so well!



There are plenty of other threads for women characters, lgbt characters and black characters so an asian thread is fair.

Plus obviously we don't just love them for being asian.





Haha sorry the poll would only let me include 15 options. I'm crushed because I didn't get to include sway or mantis but I am glad I got quite a few in

It wasn't totally directed to this thread, I think those appreciation threads are weird too.

On a side note, I love me som Nico Minoru and Shang Chi

LOVE this thread, Silvermoth!

I voted for DAKEN AKIHIRO


More manipulative than Moonstone, hotter than Gambit and more ruthless than Logan. What's not to love? The perfect anti-villain; can't WAIT for his focus in the Wolverines (even IF he's losing an arm). He's the first ever LGBT character to have a second solo series; and has the cutest bromance/one time lover of Johnny Storm. I LOVE HIM!!!

[Tony Stark]

Shang-Chi: Master of Kung Fu

Mine too! Then Sunfire.

*Voted for Surge. I liked her when she was more than "the girl who is always angry".
Daken, Colleen Wing, Jolt and Nico Minoru are among my favorites too.

*On the other side, I never liked the japanese character who wouldn't stop babbling about "honnor", "great warrior" and all those samurai cliché stuff.

*Now that the Avengers World is expanding, I wonder if we'll see a new japanese team, since the Big American 6 are not allowed anymore.

*No Ms Marvel in the poll?

As a Brit, the title of this thread is confusing - "Asian" over here usually means South Asian i.e, Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi etc.

Mantis I think she is half plant or something but thought she was cool .image.jpg

[Captain M]

The confusion if mutual since those groups are not normally what Americans refer to as Asian,

[Kieran_Frost]

"TOP 5" Asian Characters
1. Dust [Sooraya Qadir]
2. Daken Akihiro

Yes, the UK the USA - two nations divided by a common language.
Obviously it's probably because the majority of immigrants from Asia to the UK are from South Asian groups, whereas to the US there's probably more East Asian immigration. Out of interest, what are South Asian immigrant groups referred to in the US? "Oriental" is sometimes collectivly used here for the East Asian groups referred to by Americans as Asian. But I believe I recall reading that's often considered a derogatory term in the US (it remains non-offensive here).

I voted Nico on the poll but most of my favourites are not listed. Armor, Hazmat, Faiza Hussain and Apex.

Really looking forward to seeing more from Silk and eventually White Fox.

[MarioHerald]

I totally forgot about her. Truly Marvel does not believe in introducing any Asian male super-heroes of in this new age. Such a bias.

Ahem! Haechi (Mark Sim). Korean-American, new Inhuman (his body absorbs all kinds of energy and transforms into a haechi... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xiezhi) and recent team member of the New Warriors.
