I did this with her with Smash 4, and here we are again. She's played a little bit of Brawl back in like 2008 and otherwise knows nothing about any video game except The Sims. I showed her the official art of every Smash Ultimate character to get her completely uninformed opinions about them.

Bayonetta: She's fancy, she looks like she's a dancer.
Bowser: I mean, it's Bowser.
Bowser Jr.: Bowser Jr.
Captain Falcon: Captain Falcon? Is that correct?
Cloud: Link! That's not it. It looks like Link, though. Is that like Adult Link?
Corrin (M): Oh, I'm unfamiliar, but I like them. They look gender neutral. And also petite.
Corrin (F): I think it's interesting that there's male and female forms of the character, I mean that's an interesting choice, so it's the same person but they can show up in either a male or female form.
Dark Pit: I don't think he looks like he um fits in with any of the other characters I've seen so far animation-wise. I'm just not a fan really, it looks like his legs are in casts.
Diddy Kong: Oh! Um... Diddy Kong, Diddy Kong! I like his T-shirt.
Donkey Kong: Uh, Donkey Kong. They made him look too human, and he looks like Ronnie from Jersey Shore, and he looks like a partier.
Dr. Mario: Dr. Mario! I didn't know he had this persona. He looks uh of Italian-Jewish descent. Maybe that's just because he's a doctor. Is that racist? That's terrible! That was not cool. He looks more pensive.
Duck Hunt: I think this was made by someone on drugs. The dog looks ****ed up. Does the bird like control him?
Falco: Well he's cool. He looks like cool hip cowboy falcon he looks like he knows what he's doing.
Fox: Um I know him, I remember him, I initially wanted to say Mr. Fox but I know that's not correct. I played some game with him in it, it was like one of the first Nintendoish where he was like a war guy.
Ganondorf: Um I don't think that the cape is necessary, I think it really conflicts with everything else that's going on unless is he supposed to be like I'm very confused by his outfit, it doesn't inform me.
Greninja: Oh! That's cool! It looks like a Picasso frog thing. I like it a lot. My favorite so far.
Ice Climbers: Oh, I remember them. I think they're pretty useless, though. They aren't very strong characters. They actually look like kind of evil the more I look at them because there's no true emotion expressed, they just look flat and scary.
Ike: Looks like a fourteen year-old got a sword.
Jigglypuff: Kirby. No, it's Jigglypuff.
King Dedede: I dunno. I feel like this among a few others are just filler characters. Maybe he's a new character, I'm not moved.
Kirby: Kirby. I'm glad they haven't changed him at all.
Link: I don't know. I don't understand why we need multiples of this elfy teenage boy sword character. There's a lot.
Little Mac: Um y'know a boxer. He looks tiny, height-wise. I don't know, I guess it's cool to throw a human in the mix.
Lucario: I like it a lot. I bet it's like of the same origin as the frog thing. He looks like a silent killer.
Lucas: Oh! It reminds me of that little boy, it's not Ned, I know that kid had black hair. I don't know what his deal is, him and the snake both look confused.
Lucina: Another sword person, but a female this time. I don't know, I guess I'm happy that this is the first woman I've seen who isn't hypersexualized.
Luigi: Okay, Luigi looks like he's farting, literally.
Marth: ANOTHER nymphy sword guy. No comment at this point.
Mario: Mario.
Mega Man: I like it! It reminds me of like Meet The Robinsons a little bit.
Meta Knight: That thing is cool, it looks like a fish-snail thing. It looks like it's from the sea.
Mewtwo: I love that. It definitely looks like um what was that movie Splice the thing in Splice. But I like its like tripod hands.

Mii Brawler: So I know that that's a Mii face. I didn't know that those transcend the Wii world. He looks like he has a stick up his butt.
Mii Gunner: Okay, I like her! I feel like her name is Jane. She's like a good team member.
Mii Swordsman: I guess we have a Mii version of the nymphy sword boys. I don't know, I don't really care about those guys anymore.
Mr. Game & Watch: I remember that thing and I remember it used to really scare me. It had like really scary powers. I feel like it's in the same vein as the oldschool Mickey Mouse the creepy old one.
Ness: Oh! Okay, so there he is. His name starts with an N, that's all I remember. Nadd? (I say Ness) Thats right.
Olimar: I like it. I'm liking all the weird new ones. He looks like he must be under the sea but a gardener?
Pac-Man: Pac-Man. I think they went a little too extreme with his eyebrows.
Palutena: Well, I like her. Again she's not hypersexualized and she looks like if um Demeter were a video game character.
Peach: Peach, of course. She never changes. She's a classic.
Pichu: So cute! Such a good Pikachu.
Pikachu: Oh. Whatever. I like the other one more.
Pit: Hmmmmm again I'm guessing this is like Apollo or something like that. Who's the guy with the Nike? That was a woman. Jason? With the feet? Hermes! Obviously a Greek god of some sort.
Pokemon Trainer: Looks like Ness grown up.
Squirtle: Very cute, I vaguely remember him.
Ivysaur: I like it. I vaguely remember him, too, don't remember names at all. But very like Dreamscape character.
Charizard: I think his colors are perfect and he's just cute enough.
R.O.B.: Is this like a WALL-E? Maybe WALL-E was inspired by him.
Robin (M): Okay, interesting. Is he like you know what I never thought about is like at what time is the video game occurring like era-wise. Because I was about to say he's like an anachronistic character but he's a video game so it's not like it matters. Is it young Ben Franklin with the lightning bolt?
Robin (F): I like her a lot. They should give her headphones because she looks like she doesn't want to be bothered.
Rosalina: Oh Luna! I loved her. I used to play some video game of yours a lot. I remember she's like a really strong character to play. I'm also noticing there are like no avatars of color. Not cool. That's ****ed up, that's my opinion. They should base some games on India or the Middle-East or something.
Roy: Um, I don't know. Another nymphy sword boy, but with red hair. The humans with the swords are just boring at this point.
Ryu: Not a white guy. So this is the one Japanese character I'm guessing? He's cool, obviously a martial artist. That's all.
Samus: Samus! Um I think that you can tell now more that she's a woman than you could back then. I like it.
Sheik: Um, I think it's a she. I think she looks cool. I like that I see no weapons.
Shulk: I don't know what to say about these people anymore, honestly.
Snake: Um, hottest character so far! Sort of looks like Liam Neeson. Looks like he lives in the arctic.

Sonic: Sonic. I never much cared for him. (I ask if she knows what animal he is) A hedgehog, duh.
Toon Link: That's an offensively bad version of Link. Why would they do that? I don't understand that choice at all.
Villager: I really dislike this one. He's so creepy. You can't just not give people eyebrows.
Wario: Is this Wario? He looks like New York Wario. He looks cool, honestly.
Wii Fit Trainer: Amazing! I used to do the yoga from the Wii Fit, and she's the yoga teacher. There's a male and female one. I love that she's part of this. I love it.
Wolf: *Laughs* This looks like a joke. This looks ridiculous. This looks like a parody of like an edgy dark character. I would not take him seriously in a fight.
Yoshi: Yoshi. He looks like he's chilling.
Young Link: Again, Link?! Am I... Okay is Link like a little boy because he looks like eight here and he looked like a baby in the other one.
Zelda: Um, I like her. She looks a little hipster-y, but she's cute.
Zero Suit Samus: Okay, she's cool. She looks like an 80s galactic porn actress who gets the job done. Great calves. (I say it's Samus) WHAT? You don't have to be hideous to be badass, she can have a body and it doesn't count against her, but this It's not such an extreme that I count it against her, but this isnt how I envisioned Samus.
Chrom: Better than the other nymphy sword guys. I like the boots. I think those are cool. Looks like a quiet strength.
Daisy: Oh, I don't think this was a good job. She looks like an old woman, Daisy.
Dark Samus: Is this Samus again, but in night gear?
Inkling: Okay. I like that there's a nerdy-ish girl. I think that's cool for like young girls playing the video game. It looks like she's holding a water gun so that's kind of lame.
King K. Rool: I've never seen this. It's a bit too childish for my liking. Looks like an alligator king
Richter: I really... Is he holding a cross? I don't have an opinion on him other than maybe he's a Christian?
Ridley: Cool. I do feel like we have enough of these kinds of things though.
Simon Belmont: Looks German.

so the logic behind her thinking she's racist for her comment about dr. mario is that she wouldn't think mario was jewish if he wasn't a doctor?

not sure if that's anti-semitic, or not honestly

I don't think the fact that there's no poc Smash characters is exactly an issue. I mean, Nintendo is a Japanese company and I'm pretty sure their ethnic diversity is almost nonexistent, for starters.

try going on tumblr some time, people will give you shit for "whitewashing" if you don't go out of your way to draw at least half the japanese characters in a series as pitch-black :/
I can get they're well-intentioned and all but acting like lighter-skinned poc are just white people to be "fixed"/"improved" is... kinda rude seeming ngl
