If Setsuna is middle eastern, why does he look Japanese?

Same backstory as Sosuke Sagara, minus the creepy mentor.

Man Setsuna@Soran looks too Mongoloid in this. As a Middle-Eastern he should looks more Caucasoid instead. However I do love that the artist try to looks like an Arab youth in this.

Actually, this looks very, very much like a Lebanese fellow I used to know.
