Western Washing

When a Movie / TV studio changes certain aspects in history / stories to appeal the Western market. This usually leads to European and Asian works being disrespected and falsified to push a narrative the original story was never trying to push.

It has also been criticized by Western audience the shows are appealing to for being lazy and disrespectful to the original work.

Some examples include: Lord of The Rings, The Witcher, Cowboy Beebop, Queen Cleopatra, The Little Mermaid and Velma
Person A: "Hey dude you gonna see that Cowboy Beebop remake?"

Person B: "Hell no, did you not hear their Western Washing so they can appeal to West? I'm just so tired of it"

Western Fasian

A person from western culture obsessed with asian culture due to kpop/anime/martial arts. Unlike people who are just obsessed, they usually learn the foreign language/immerse themselves in the culture. They often play ping pong, or other sports that are predominantly played in Asia. They also tend to leave their current value system because they are convinced/want immersion to the point where they need to fully integrate.

It is a high level of devotion, and exceeds an obsession. It is no longer considered obsessed, but rather, they have become true fake asians.

Mike: Yeah, he's such a western fasian.
