And to add some more linguistic ontopic to my post - I've already mentioned about month ago here, that Mr. Alenko has absolutely typical ukranian surname, that exists in a country, and his name also has ukrainianturk origins (and can be found as a surname around modern Ukraine as well, but not as first name). Not that I mean that he's a 100% ukrainian, but hу did have some ancestors from Eastern Europe, no doubt. 8P
Eheh, now THAT's an interesting topic.
Yeah, I read that Alenko was Ukranian, and Kaidan is Japanese.
But to me, I don't know why, Alenko immediately stroke me as being mainly latin-american! Even Sbarge's voice acting sounds this way, actually that's the kind of accent my French ears imagine for a latin-american born in North America! I mean, yeah, not a 100% latino, probably mixed origins, but still.
So that's what so funny and really, huh, magical about Major Alenko, is that everybody sees something different in him, but ALWAYS hot

Really, whoever designed him, gave him Sbarge's voice, and that great character writing deserves some kind of medal for creating such a perfect combo, that appeals to so many different types of persons, men and women alike! It's somewhat creepy actually

.
I read very often that people thought he was definitely Asian, and when I see pictures of actors people would imagine him after, they often look totally white caucasian and so on... He's handsome enough that people can project any fantasies in him.
As for me, I'm half Asian, half French, so maybe it seemed unconciously fit that I would imagine him as someone even more "exotic" than I, and of course, with mixed origins.
PS: plus he's very dark haired and with no hair whatsoever on the whole body, so that really narrows the ethnic possibilites

so yeah, definitely latino
