Even they would be just warned some things could be allowed in Taiwan but censored in China. Maybe they will use a different name, but I doubt among Chinese or Japanese words, maybe xuanhuan, jianghu, shenmo or isekai. Maybe a title with a Chinese and a Japanese word.To say WotC can't publish a book about xiákè and kabukimono is like saying Disney can't produce movies about Alladin, Mulan or Raya and the last dragon. This is not about to forbbid but to explain how to do in the right way. Can't we watch the movies of Kung-Fu Panda? We shouldn't close those doors. If we complain about stereotypes then we could talk about beat'em videogames by Asian companies. If am Spanish can I complain about Vega (Street Fighters) or another Spanishs characters in videogames?* We don't need the title "Arabian Nights" when "1001 nights" is more universal.* When I was a child I saw many episodes of the serie "Kung Fu", whose main character was "the little grasshopper", playeb by David Carradine. If respect Chinese culture was thanks this serie, but the "sequel", set in the current age was an horrible "jumping the shark", too fantastic even for me.Today there are series with roots on Asian cultures, for example <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warrior_(TV_series)" target="_blank">Warrior (an old idea by Bruce Lee)</a>, or Wu Assasins.</blockquote>
