RE: Hermione I don't really recall reading anything specific about her skin tone but I can't really imagine caring if I had. The only times when people toy with "let's make ____ black/gay/trans/plantkin!" and I kinda object are when people suggest James Bond be female really. That would just be absurd. And do not scream bloody murder at me for suggesting Ian Fleming kinda meant his character to not sit at home and wonder about gender identity.
There was a bit of a stir but it only came from illiterate racist idiots.
