People around here should learn some geography and get some basic knowlege. Asia is huge and contains many languages of completely different roots. In addition, appearence of people differ massively. By saying Asian and thinking specifically about Japanese eyes and accent, basically makes you an ignorant racist. At that point you basically lose all credibility to accuse a film of being racist.

As for Nomodians resembling Japanese, I have been living/working in Japan and I speak Japanese and I have never seen any resemblence.

I would say PT is as much racist as OT (bad guys having European/British accent while good guys American). Neither really is in my opinion by the way. But no one ever sees it as racism if it happens to Europeans…
