There has been a LOT of fanboy whining over Goku not being "Asian" (it's always "Asian", not Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Korean, et
cetera, because they're all pretty much interchangable, y'see!). This despite the fact Asia does not exist in DB world, that Goku was based on a monkey
and later retconned into being an alien superman, and that the world the story takes place in is ruled by a dog. As is probably evident, I find that
eye-rollingly stupid and debateably more racist than they think the movie is.
