For anyone wondering about including white/european heritages, I decided to have some leeway because I kept getting recommended stories with fully white characters as a main character or love interest or both (which I will not accept any of those whatsoever). Mixed japanese people are still poc but I did add that the partially white heritage has to actually be a relevant part of the story. I do plan in the future to number/move the list where the white heritages are so that people who don’t want to read those are fine to avoid them. Unfortunately what I’m looking for seems to be very niche, open to any recommendations to lengthen and improve my list
