Okay lots of people are saying that this isn't an issue because it's the job of actors to portray someone different. While it's true that an actor's job is to protray someone they themselves are not, I think there are limits to believability that get crossed when it comes to things like a white actor portraying a character who is clearly supposed to be Asian. I mean it can't be said that I'm a big fan of transgenderism, to be honest with everyone. Even so, that doesn't mean that I'm therefore in favor of people who consider themselves to be transgender being misrepresented in this kind of a blatant way that seems intentional.

Supposed to be asian? The character had a fully cybernetic body so she could look like anything that she wanted.
