hey!!!! wouldnt it be nice to consider ethnic minorities within japan??? and i mean japanese indigenous peoples (the ainu and okinawans) because racebending poc is Not Cool. since im okinawan diaspora, im gonna focus on iruka, who ive always believed not to be part of the central ethnicity of konoha/the fire country.

(brief explanation: okinawa is the largest island of the ryukyu islands. i prefer the term “uchinanchu” instead of “okinawans” because it refers specifically to the ethnicity instead of whoever lives in okinawa. we have our own culture, which includes a dialect (uchinaaguchi), music, religion, etc. we also tend to have really beautiful darker skin)

iruka’s parents werent born in konoha; they moved from an island/the shore (hence their surname, “umino” and iruka’s own name) of the fire country to konoha at a young age to become shinobi. when iruka is born, his parents teach him everything about his homeland: they cook traditional food, celebrate traditional holidays, he can even speak the dialect fluently. they’re a tight family because no one else shares their culture, which is why iruka is so devastated and lonely when his parents die.

but!!! when iruka unofficially adopts naruto, he passes down his knowledge and welcomes naruto into his culture, and naruto is absolutely thrilled (they can trash talk anyone in the sea dialect!!!) and deeply touched because it means he genuinely is family to iruka.

also: grandpa!iruka in his mid-30s because his dumb dfab unofficial son gets himself pregnant with the next uchiha generation AND adopts a bunch of war orphans as if their family wasnt getting big enough with trans girl aunt sakura coming over nearly everyday with her polyamorous gf ino (who brings her bfs chouji and shikamaru) and uncle kakashi and his dogs

what's wrong with this

dumb dfab unofficial son gets himself pregnant
trans girl aunt sakura
her polyamorous gf ino

why can't ppl just write a normal fanfiction about iruka being from fantasy okinawa instead of all this bullshit
