In a world where historical figures are repeatedly represented in media with the wrong ethnicity, that VA’s complaint seems like irony.

But seriously: if Genshin really aimed at accuracy, they’d have to portray the character as some old guy, which is totally contrary to the tone of the other characters in the game: youthful, cool-looking, modern.
