Most English collections ommit in the land of the Soviets and in the Congo. The first is just bad quality wise (and anticommunist) and the second super racist.
Later ones can be quite racist still but the stories get better.
And the racism gets, I guess more you’d say nuanced, like stereotyped first nations in America, but clearly showing white settlers screwing them over.
Or depicting the Chinese people both stereotypically but as people worthy of respect and friendship (pretty much most cultures get this).

The lotus one is pretty bad too. Basically the only place I heard of Japanese mistreatment of the Chinese, though.
Yeah it’s a real land of contrasts.
