      Wait, seriously?

      Is he also a long distant relative of Keeanu Reeves? 'Cause that's how it looks from here. It's all coming together...

      Amuro Ray is a fictional character; so no.

      Amuro Ray is not related to Keanu Reeves.

      How about the fictional Keanu Reeves? Is he related to Amuro?

    With that reddish brown hair and big round eyes, I was never sure what ethnicity Amuro is supposed to be. . .

    I like the art here though. Want to see what Char looks like in this style

      The name Amuro itself is unique though it may have been something else originally that became different due to their pronunciation.
      Not that ethnicity matters in their universe. Their discrimination is between earthlings and colonists.

    I thought amuro was American, since side 7 is technically an American colony + he and the gundam were symbolic ofwaking the sleeping giant

    Almost none of the original Gundam characters struck me as being Asian. Amuro, Char, Sayla, Noah, Garma, Kai, Ryu, etc etc. None of them.

      Anon 4:15. You think Lalah Sune looks Asian?

      She looks very Indian to me. . . .

    So we now have a reference for the live action casting call lol. Now I want to see how they do Bright Noa!

    Also Amuro's looking a bit old for that kiddy space suit don't you think?
