I’m not a westerner but I get the idea. Anime hadn’t yet caught on in india when I was growing up there, so it’s always been alien to me.

If modern day setting, then location tells you what race. If England, most characters are white even if they look somewhat Japanese. If Japan, most are Japanese even with Caucasian-ish looks. If sci-fi/futuristic and characters have neutral names, then race doesn’t matter.
