Sunsets for Monkeys

Cool....??? I’m not sure what this has to do with the post, but it’s good to use sunscreen to protect your skin from the UV rays.

>>Just to be clear, I don’t think Sun’s complexion is only because he’s tan, though that’s definitely possible. He’s based on a Chinese lore, has the same name as the character in those stories, and was introduced with dark eyes. You can always tan your skin and lighten (or darken in his case, see prev posts) your hair, but you can’t change your eyes. The shape, the color, that’s just genetic. 

However! If you added this comment just to let a stranger online know that you enjoy tanning in the sunshine, then I’m sorry for over-analyzing it and I’m glad you’re enjoying yourself

sun 100% got whitewashed as time went on. i'm sorry the anons in your inbox are too stupid to see it LMAO.

fuck crwby for doing my boy so dirty.

Hahahhaha Bro. Okay I'm gonna show you what I did to the image. Also seriously you cannot look at volume 3 Sun's eyes and compare them to volume 4 or 5. I mean if you want to believe that, go for it. But "that's not how lighting works" is the lamest attempt at trying to handwave the change in colors I have ever seen and I see it way too much.

So, let’s take this UNEDITED screenshot of Sun from volume 3:

Now, it does look a little darker than you’d expect, with him being out in bright sunlight, but this was my reference photo. 

Now let’s look at the screenshot I used of Sun from volume 6:

Funny that they’re both in the daytime, that Sun’s hair is actually DARKER in the volume 6 photo, yet their eyes and skintone don’t look the same.

Okay, sure, let’s run with your explanation of lighting. I’ll find a brighter image of Sun from vol 3, again, unedited:

So, the skintone looks pretty similar in this case because of how bright the light is on Sun’s skin in the tournament scene. Because the arena is made to be like a desert oasis.

If we take, say, this shot of Sun from vol 4:

Same sort of lighting, yet doesn’t he look a little paler to you?

Regardless of whether you think that the SKINTONE is because of “lighting” or in my case, because they literally changed its color, you’re seriously sitting here and telling me THESE EYES:

Are the SAME COLOR as THESE eyes??????

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to break this down <3 If you’re still in denial, then....

Well, as Sun would say:
