Why do people in China always wear cheongsam and mandarin jackets on Japanese festivals?

In fact, it is not only in Japanese cartoons, but also in cartoons of other countries. They think this is the characteristic of China.

In fact, the ancient costumes of our country are somewhat similar to Japanese kimonos and Korean hanbok. But the Republic of China is the most special period in China. At that time, cheongsam and mandarin jacket were really distinctive. As long as this kind of clothing appears, everyone will think it is from China. In Japanese anime, China, as a supporting role, actually only needs to let everyone know that he painted China people.

I think this is something to be proud of. After all, people wearing suits in anime can be people from any country, but people wearing cheongsam and mandarin jackets are definitely people from China. This is not only distinctive, but also internationally recognized. Shouldn't we be proud?

Of course, it may also be because the painter's understanding of China is too limited. Simply put, there is no cultural background. Then you can't blame others for this.
