It’s a plot point in Dr Stone that some of the characters have lighter hair. The basic plot is that every human on Earth has been turned to stone in a single event for 3,500 years until one character is freed from it and works to free others and restore all of science and civilization from scratch. He later finds a tribe of humans with a lot variations in skin and hair color, along with a society centered on collecting certain minerals and using the basics of science. The main character is able to figure out that they’re the descendants of the International Space Station crew who were in orbit when everyone else was turned to stone. There’s more to it but they created a culture designed to be ready to help rebuild civilization when the right person came back.
It’s a pretty great show, I recommend it. It’s a fairly upbeat show about science and friendship. In season two they make a steam powered tank.

Wrong! American. Try again.
Sold!
Just warn me now if I'm going to need brain bleach, because the last two anime I was recommended was 'Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood' and 'Made in Abyss', and I was not pre-warned about Nina and Mitty respectively. That shit hurt.
Hmm... then it's either the third from the left or the first from the right. If neither of them then I guess they threw darts on a map and picked the nationalities

JAPANESE!!! (what, didn't you recognize the unmistakable "Asian features"?
).The first from the right is...
is....
is...
Renato Socci!!! Italian!!!
(what did give him away?!?!)And I have to say, it is a more Italian sounding name than those I heard often in American movies

Renato is a perfectly common Italian given name. It was my uncle’s name. Socci is a derivation of the Umbrian family name Soccio.Renato Socci!!! Italian!!!

My third guess then. What did give him away? I thought the Italian had better odds with lighter skin tone and darker hair.
Se he is Dr. Livingstone?
There's nothing like that from what I've seen. There's a manga that's farther ahead, but so far it's been "science is awesome" and lots of heartwarming moments because of the power of science.
No they don't. Manga characters don't look "exactly" like real people. That's a ludicrous as saying Bugs Bunny looks exactly like a cottontail rabbit. Nyaa, it's all stylized up the wazoo, Doc.
Not "all." As with any form of cartooning, naturally, it depends on the style of the individual artist. Some mangaka favor a realistic style (for example), others a highly caricatured style, others somewhere in between. That's as true of Japanese comics as it is of American comics.
Here's what I want:
* A much bigger role for Ein.
* Ein needs to be louder, angrier, and have access to a time machine.
* Whenever characters are on screen, they should be asking, "Where's Ein?"
So like Poochie without the sarcasm.

"I knew he would."
Hey, Spike looks pretty Asian in that comic book, lol
How old is Spike supposed to be? I only watched the first few episods of the anime, and I got the impression from the episode that introduced his rival, that they had a fairly long history, which would mean he couldn't be to young.
I thought Sir Francis Drake didn't have any children by either of his wives although I guess he could have sired issue out of wedlock.

I imagined Spike as having partly east Asian heritage, perhaps Korean or Japanese. Any actor cast needs to project the same sardonic demeanour as Spike IMO.
ETA: I must say the casting of John Cho as Spike, indeed also the casting of Jet and Faye, looks great.
