I just looked it up, and at least on wiki, it lists Japan as 98.1% native Japanese. That is pretty culturally and racially homogeneous. Having watched my fair share of older and newer anime, the depictions of black people has gotten better (a little bit). One particular character that I thought was a really great character that just so happened to be black was Mika from Lycoris Recoil. If you like John Wick but wish it had more anime girls, then I highly recommend it.
