(What? Don't judge it 'till you try it!) |

* An early episode of ''[[Darker than Black]]'' has a white [[Career Killers|hitman]] telling his black partner that his kind are scum, fit only to serve others. The catch is that the black partner is a Contractor, essentially an amoral living weapon. The scene is probably a [[Lampshade Hanging]] on how [[Fantastic Racism]] is often used as a blatant parallel to actual racism. |
