while I'm thinking about it, does anyone else feel that some casting decisions for live-action anime lately feels... misaimed?

for example, the American live-action Death Note made a big deal of having a diverse cast when it's originally set entirely in Japan and makes sense for most of the cast to be Japanese, whereas there was a rumored Attack on Titan (I think) adaptation that had an all-Japanese cast when, for plot reasons, it would make more sense for them to have a varied group. these things are probably down to studio location and availability of actors but it still strikes me as odd
