So in case you don't know, they've had a graphic update. Their noses have shrunk, their sweet 'staches are less noticeable, and they actually have eyes. It's likely this was a change to make them less of a bunch of ethnic stereotypes.
SO. HOW DOES USHI FEEL. I'm personally really happy about this because they were vaguely offensive before.
I didn't find the sprites offensive, but that's just me. However, I can see some people being offended by them. So I think it was in Natsume's best interest to change the art. We wouldn't want them to get in trouble...
I don't really care that they changed the sprites. (I did like the other one better, though.) They're not major characters or anything, so I don't see it being a problem.
And for those of you who haven't seen the change...
I don't mind the change either, though I didn't really see anything offensive with how they were to begin with... I'unno, it's all okay with me, really... I do think the new version is a little bit more "cute-sy" though, and I'm not ENTIRELY sure how I feel about that.. xD
I don't care. Doesn't matter to me, but I can see where Natsume might get some heat from so I don't blame them. I like the little beady eyes, though. XD

well, Won isn't wrong looking....I thought he was the most popular special character of MFoMT ?
And the three brothers are still there, they're just different.
And Gourmet's race isn't even mentionned, so why do you even mention it ?
To...
