[URL unfurl="true"]https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FarEast[/URL][URL unfurl="true"]https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CultureChopSuey[/URL]---The videogame Enslave: Odissey to the West by the British studio "Ninja Theory" is a loose adaptation of "Journey to the West". Is anybody complaining about cultural apropiation?We agree about for a better coexistence we have to do our best to show respect for the other communities. It's totally right to ask advice people from the different countries, but I don't agree about the idea of a taboo for western companies to make speculative fiction inspired in wuxia or anime genres. In my opinion it is not about to close those doors but how to find the right key. Wuxia by western authors shouldn't be banned. If the work is right, a wuxia D&D would be very good for the own Asian community, to help fight against sinophobia and all that. How many people started to learn Japanese because they liked manga-anime?.  I support the idea of "chop-suey" cultures in the speculative fiction, mixing things from different civilitations. At least because it allows more ambiguity if you want to do a subtle criticism against some people in the real life. We shouldn't talk about a new Kara-Tur but how to give the right toolbox for the Asian fandom to create their own fantasy worlds based/inspired in their culture. * Hasbro is the owner of Enternaiment One. This means if it wants it could buy Asian studios to produce its own anime, (and later some titles adapted into videogames or D&D).* I wonder about WotC to publish a rehush of D&D only for Chinese market, without corporeal undeads as skeletons and zombies and things like this, or maybe something more "atheist", sci-fi.
