Cait is not Asian
[Supposed to be a reply, but comments are locked]
There is no Asia on Runeterra like there is on Earth, and therefore no Asians. There are also no Africans, Europeans, or I would even argue homo sapiens in Arcane. Cait is a fictional character, she does not have to fit into any one group of how humans on earth categorize ourselves. Idk about yall, but I’ve never met an Asian person with blue eyes anyway (Googled it and it is possible on earth, but rare and not an associated trait). To use some other examples, there are no European/white people (or any people for that matter) on Earth with natural blue or pink hair like Vi and Jinx, but that would be the most logical bucket for them to fall into??? Better yet, look at a character like Smeech.
Don’t think it makes sense to project our worlds human categorization system/tribalism onto a fictional world. So many characters float between our usual groupings or outside of any earthly group altogether, especially in a show so heavily about tribalism (albeit classism/geographical bias instead of racism).
NO ONE can stop you from identifying with or behaving like any fictional character you want no matter who you are.
So many kids want to be like Optimus Prime, and it wasn’t because he belonged to a tribal in-group. (side note, Optimus makes a good case against the VA argument I’m seeing)
Nvm, I forgot my last shitpost, Caitlyn’s grandparents grew up in Xi’an before immigrating to Piltover.
