I've personally never seen a black anime character.  Do they exist?

This entire post was pretty stupid and also very ignorant, so I won't bother going on about everything,

but just to clear things up, supposedly the "big eyes" started with various shoujo manga to make the characters seem more expressive. Since the Japanese, until recently (and even now in the rural parts), rarely had any contact with other races besides other eastern-Asians, what was there to compare themselves too? So, in cartoons, whether they decide to portray Japanese characters with a big 'this' or small 'that', it doesn't matter since they don't think "I better abide to the universal stereotype of my race..." Nobody thinks like that.
