Fugly in my personal opinion, yes. Racism? Not......really? Japan doesn't have the same history in terms of race relations towards dark-skinned groups that makes things like Black Face such an issue.

I've seen that there's some drama concerning the colored group shot from the first volume, which is honestly silly. The colors in the picture are clearly washed out and muted, since other colored images have shown them to all have brightly colored hair. But Mutsuki is still clearly darker/a different color than the others. (And honestly, darker skinned Japanese do exist. Asian celebs tend to be very light-skinned, so it's easy to forget that complexions vary.)
