The logo used for Tokyo for Tokyo Olympics shows a lack of sophistication, knowledge, and deep understanding of other cultures. Despite the creator’s good intentions, it evokes a stereotypical image of what is called an “Asian” or cheap Chinese restaurant with a Chinaman and a gong with Chinese- like music usually accompanying the typography. Being Japanese and living in the US for many years, this stereotypical dancing typography frequently used to depict “Asian” or Chinese restaurants, etc. has always given me unpleasant feelings. This may not be far cry from blackface.
