THE WAY THESE FUCKING WRITERS CANNOT TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ARABS AND INDIANS IS SO IGNORANT. Its aladdin ALL of again. The story and characters are middle eastern and then they throw in random indian elements. Its irritating

    The clothes they wear are not arab. And, across other mangas- they will put random bindis on middle eastern characters it's insane. Just because there are overlapping elements, doesnt mean the two races are interchangeable. Just like how east asian cultures have similar elements- doesnt mean you can jsut swap koreans and chinese people. that would be offensive

    Yeah I see your point. Ig these things are more mughal than arab even though it doesn't make sense for the character

    i doubt these artists are looking into the historical context of the mughal empire. believe me its pure orientalism and ignorance ╥﹏╥
