Black faces like that have been considered offensive for literally over a hundred years. This is not an "sjw" thing it's just basic common sense, you don't fuck your marketing like that.

"sjw" refers to a very specific, modern internet phenomenon. Actual organizations for black advocacy raised the concerns about Jynx and have held those views about blackface for generations, dude. Everything isn't redpill internet land.

to be fair jynx was literally designed as a blackface character. it wasn't like "opps we didn't mean it" they fucking meant that shit lmao it's not a coincidence of design features adding up to a blackface-like monster. shit is just straight blackface lmao

ofc they had to change. can't believe it was even approved in the first place

It's because blackface doesn't have the same cultural connotations in Japan (and most of the world really) as it does in America. It's less they didn't realize that it was a racial stereotype, and more that they didn't think anyone would give a shit

so which is it? either they didn't know it was a racial stereotype or they did know but didn't think anyone would give a shit.

They're aware it's a stereotype, and they didn't think anyone would really care, because they sure don't.
Hell there's still plenty of anime nowadays where they still do the nigga lips and huge eyes for black characters.

No it isn't. That's a theory. Gamefreak and Nintendo have never commented on Jynx. They just silently changed the design and banned the two episodes to feature it, which lets you know it was just a mistake rather than being inspired by anything. Honestly the only reason it was ever even documented was because of the episodes being blocked other wise no one would even have cared.

Cultural misreading.
Jynx's exaggerated features were supposed to recall the yamanba of youkai folklore and make a playful poke at ganguro girls. (Yamanba can refer to either the demon or to girls that take ganguro "too far.") The former's been prime material for kids' media literally since the Edo period. But nobody reads the same symbols in exactly the same way, and local culture changes what the same thing means to different people. So a ganguro yama-uba/yamanba from Japan gets read as a black mammy sambo in North Carolina, and Nintendo goes on damage control to make something in the middle that's still recognizable in its home country but doesn't cross the line in the west.

Your theories are entirely valid but, they're still theories until there's some official statement. Which is probably never going to happen since it would've by now.

They've made several videos about it but this is the one that I'm referring to. There was no talks about snow witches before this video but internet experts act like some black children's author is an idiot for not knowing about a obscured japanese legend back in the 90s.
