Hi all,
I wanted to know if anyone can give me advise from REAL experience on how Japanese people treat other Asians in Japan (preferably from Japanese users, not experts who never been involved with the Japanese culture).
My gf is due to travel there in a few months and she looks like a mixed race Japanese (she looks about 50/50 korean/japanese). I want to know what type of treatment she could expect from the local population in Japan.
she speaks English only,
Plz help me anons.

They routinely plant drugs on the luggage of other Asian tourists. 99% conviction rate!!!!!
most countries have “high” conviction rates because prosecutors drop the charges if they arent completely certain they will win. The US also has a “99%” conviction rate if you dont include the fact that about half of cases are dropped before they go to trial.
This is true, but you can simply just take the drugs
You get free drugs and no conviction!

I'm an Asian foreigner, I just get ignored, there was one time when I was at a bar in Shinjuku and some white guys were talking loudly thinking they're hot shit and I see a bunch of salarymen look at them then look back at me and silently giving me the nod to acknowledge something like "there's foreigners here acting like shit, we fellow japanese aren't like that".
he didn't know I'm also a foreigner.
>some white guys were talking loudly thinking they're hot shit
Why are ricecels like this? Why do they get so angry and insulted by literally nothing?
He's not wrong, especially if it's Americans. Western culture is entirely centered on bravado starting with the Greeks.
japs generally hate koreans and chinese, and koreans and chinese generally hate japs
there is a bit of a history between those three countries and the occasional shared sporting event doesn't change that
japs on average don't hate Koreans or Chinese. that's the difference between asian foreigners compared to visible foreigners. Extremist japs or exceptional circumstances makes Japanese like white/black/brown foreigners but the normie japs or the average societal japs like Chinese and Koreans.
and we all know how important being normal is in Japan
Japs are indifferent to Koreans and are merely annoyed by Chinese. Koreans and Chinese can't stop seething about Japan. Pic related.
>Japs are indifferent to Koreans
Japan hasn't stopped seething about Korea ever since it got its island captured.
Japanese people treat everyone well regardless of race, Chinese and Koreans are jealous of Japan's reputation and try to do everything to portray them as sinister or cruel.
>checks history
about that
All the atrocity propaganda made up to justify bombing women and children?
"Hostage Justice" is what the lawyer termed it to me. Holding people in isolation until they will confess to anything. Standard operating procedure i was told. They re-arrested me after the first 3 weeks with a larger scary charge than the first. At this point I started to freak out. I was afraid I would be held forever, just constantly re-arrested, without ever going to court.
I stuck to my guns and said my favorite Japanese phrase over and over again, "I don't know". I lost a bit of my sanity in there, and on many occasions was ready to confess to anything if it would allow me to get out, but my lawyer kept me grounded.
Not sure if I can ever go back to Japan after that though. All the people I knew there seem to have disowned me even though I was never charged. Japan was a great place until I saw this other side to the culture.
f you ARE arrested, NEVER, sign any papers they give you to sign (which will be in Japanese and you admitting you're guilty of things you don't even realize). DEMAND to be able to call your embassy. My Kiwi buddy was interrogated by more than 5 officers for 17 days, day and night, until they finally let him call his embassy, who immediately got him out. The one officer even forcefully tried to get my buddy sign papers, by bending his fingers and bruising them. DO NOT TRUST WHAT THEY TELL YOU.
Years ago they arrested my friend who was a foreigner. He was locked up for 5 or 6 days. There was a fight in Tokyo that involved another foreigner who was eating at an establishment 5 stores down who was black as well.
The only thing that saved him from further punishment was his restaurant receipt.
They never tell you the hell of japanese judicial system, and that you as a gaijin have almost no rights.
They can arrest you 23 days with daily interrogation withoit lawer present, even if they at the end don't present any charges
Here Fuchu prision, where if you are a gaijin they will send you to work 8h a day
Lived in Japan for 6 years. Once a guy from Brazil who worked with us was arrested because a woman said she was robbed in front of a hospital. The guy was at the hospital as his wife was giving birth. He got arrested because the woman said the offender was a foreigner. The police didn't care, he was a foreigner, and he got arrested. In the end, the woman admitted she was not robbed and was afraid to tell the family she lost money gambling, pointing to a foreigner to be more convincing. He got out after 3 months, but he lost his job and the birth of his son. And the woman, nothing, nothing, he tried to sue the woman, but it was not accepted because she was Japanese and "apologized."
OP here,
Thank you frens for all the info, really helps, I appreciate it.
They'll just assume she's a tourist when they speak Japanese to her and get nothing in response but blank stares and/or vigorous nodding.

If you're Chinese (China), you're fricked. However, you must let them know if you're from Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, or Korea. Their attitude towards you will change.
