traditional anime styles have characters with large eyes, puffy/spiked hair, little nose.... it's not supposed tolook asian...

Plus Japanese don't always look traditionally asian... some have tan skin like white people and more rounded eyes.... when they dye their hair... it can be really hard to tell. Esspecially women... and men who wear alot of makeup

i think they usualluy draw the eyes big because they're the "window to the soul"

That is a pretty interesting take I have to say. May just be true *shrugs*

I always figured they drew them bigger to help them show emotions better. Squinty eyes is 'evil' and bright eyes gleaming is happy or maybe even joyful crying. . Hmm. . I suppose that is just expanding on your theory a bit more simple terms though. . but at least it may give a bit more understanding? =P

Ok ok. . I get it. . *shuts up*
