whole lot of lowkey racism in the comment section. lol chill its just a story. missing the point of the author too, since it aint about race, religion, ect ect its about humans vs gods. so be happy a human won.
and even if thats the case IF you want to make it about race well, i know a bunch of you guys would defend your own races author if the first one to win was a (insert race here) . look at the USA they do it all the time.
plus most of the warrior here are Asian or White , theres a bunch of Norse Mythology which is White Gods, i can pull up a bunch of amazing warriors from Africa and Meso-american / native american history and mythology, but where they at???? bet most wouldnt care right? so why are you be mad a Japanese warrior won???
