What happens when you go into some "NO AMERICANS" onsen or whatever and they tell you to fuck off in some incomprehensible engrish and you reply something along the lines of "Sumimasen, eigo de wakarimasen" (in case you're actually fluent)?
Will they shit bricks and allow you to stay or what happens?

indeed. If you are white and go into a restaurant, they will immediately bring the english menu out and give that to you instead of the japanese menu.

If you go into a macdonalds (or other fast food restaurant), before you even get to the counter, they will flip over the menu on the table and point to the english menu.

It would suck huge balls if you were white, and only spoke fluent japanese (or any other language besides english, such as spanish).

Let me see if I can break it down from my understanding.

Reasons for this:
1. No, your overzealous impolite otaku ass is not allowed into our establishment because there's the possibility you're a Marine, and US Marines are raping the shit out of the local populace. Every time one of those damn jarheads gets a little too friendly with the local women, it reflects badly on all of us.

2. Some of these establishments are run by Yakuza, and having nosy whities around ruins it. This is especially true of anything relating to prostitution, bars, or entertainment.

From my understanding, 98% of places in Tokyo anyway don't have this bias against (white) foreigners. IF you're black, expect to be looked at with a little curiosity. If you're Chinese/Korean you'll get looked at with a little distain if you have an attitude. If you're southeast Asian, well...many people just won't approve of you.

IF you end up in one of these situations and you don't speak semi-fluent Japanese, be very polite and leave graciously. If you make a scene, it will verify to the owner that you're a loose cannon, and prone to outbursts.

IF you do speak fluent Japanese (or at least, well enough to know your honorifics), tell the person denying you entry that you are very sorry to have wasted their time and that you understand the rules.

Do not attempt to fuck with them. Don't be a smart ass in this country and expect to get ahead.

Its long-post anon here again.

Some other things I thought of - These were told to me by Japanese people. How you dress is very very important you have two ways to make it easier for yourself, assuming you're white(ish)

1. Look at how Americans and other whites are portrayed on the TV - celebs etc... Most of them are extremely jovial. If you're blonde (dyejob or not) try to pattern some of your at least cursory interactions after the famous forigners that are there. I believe Peter Payne (of JList fame) wrote in his newsletter one time that people expected him to say "Its unbelievable!" all the time. So if you can appear to be the "Friendly American" WITHOUT violating the social rules that will make the Japanese people be uncomfortable, do so. This takes tact - there's no easy way around it.

2. If you're not typically USAian looking (Maybe you're hispanic? Or mixed Asian (in my case, Japanese) and White like myself), then in SOME cases you may have a certain familiarity mixed with attractive exoticness that is ascribed to "Haifu"; half Japanese half Whites and considered REALLY attractive by many Japanese people.

This will only work if you are....
1. Not fat
2. Overall attractive
3. Dark haired (Medium brown or darker and WELL TAKEN CARE OF)
4. Have at least one Japanese physical feature. Maybe your eyes are shaped asian looking, maybe your skin tone is more Asian than White (Lightskinned Hispanic people will do well here)

Doesn't work for everyone, but hell... this is what my Japanese Ex told me will get me through in Japan, because it brings a comforting sense of the familiar together with the exoticism of whiter skin etc...

Only, no, the US marines aren't raping the population. What happens is that the police will always, ALWAYS back the word of the non-foreigner. All it takes is one marine to act too friendly, and the woman yells rape. Furthermore, because foreigner crimes are *grossly* overexaggerated by the media, that one marine that got too friendly suddenly becomes ALL MARINES ALL RAPISTS ALL THE TIME.

1. If you're hispanic, to be honest, I've never had this conversation with a Japanese friend, but I'll ask sometime. Pretty much don't look cholo or like a marine, and you should be fine. Since "hispanic" can be so many different varieties of skin color and features you could be mistaken for a ton of things by people who have never seen a hispanic person before Don't be afraid to let people know you speak Spanish though, as, like French, its seen as kind of cool in pop culture (Take for instance all the Spanish names and such in the Bleach series.)

As far as Chinese goes, you'll probably have an easier time getting "access" to good treatment, provided you don't

1. Make a "big deal" about being part of the oldest civilization, the original Men of Han etc. Don't ever give the impression you're a hyper nationalistic type who thinks that china is superior to japan.
2. Bring up WWII stuff.

Aside from that, you "fit in" pretty damn well physically and if you can speak some Japanese it helps too.

I can understand what you mean, but I think there's some credence to what the Japanese people are talking about here.

I was watching the NHK World the other day, and on the news report they had two interesting stories back to back. One was about the opening of a new joint command center for the Japanese Air Self Defense Force and the USAF - They were going to move troops to have closer relations and quartering, and work together on a missile shield program etc...

Right after this was a piece about how the Japanese government are demanding that Marine bases (or Naval bases that house marines, as it is), need to install security cameras, create a strong criteria for who's allowed to live off base, and that the JDF is going to be doing patrols of entertainment districts to basically watch out for Marines fucking up and rescuing the Japanese people. US interests have agreed to these terms citing there is a problem as well.

Yes, I think the system may be biased in favor of the locals, but considering that in particular the Marines are being singled out because there are more incidents of violence or sexual misconduct reported than say, compared to USAF or Navy individuals, I think there may be something here.

Also, as an anecdote I've talked to my share of US marines and there are a large percentage who want an okinawa deployment so they can get a "little brown fucking machine". So I believe the Japanese people's waryness is justified.

I'm really not sure who "started it", but there are some people on both sides who really dislike each other. I know the Japanese aren't happy that the Chinese keep bringing up WWII which, from my understanding is a cultural shame they just want to forget about.

I don't know since I'm not over there, but I don't think the average Japanese person hates the average Chinese - Its probably just the nationalistic ones on both sides who cause a problem.

i doubt japanese people hate germans. i mean, ofcuz, u have to speak some german to proof that u are german. i mean, look at some of the anime. some of them feature in german. like the rozen maiden, and few other i cant think of right now. anyway, seems like japanese people like german. and, there's a rumor. well, i heard this rumor from my chinese teacher. didnt u guys notice during the WWII the japanese soldier have the identical mustache as hitler? coz they love hitler and germans. or perhaps, charlie chaplin

I magine the signs you see that actually do say "No Americans/whatever Allowed" would also mean their lack of English cuz truthfully, they suck at it.
I've seen Japanese news reports and they did a comparison on the tourist in Japan and Japanese citizens. In one, they were asked to draw a world map and let's just say the japs view of the world is uncomfertable close to "Billy's" drawings.

One possible way, maybe, is to have a Japanese friend go in with you. From the signs I noticed, some just ban Americans or foreigners without a Japanese friend/escort.

Overall I have been to Japan many times and stayed for extended periods. I have been to the city's and to the boonies.

As they have said here.

If your white, your American. That is how they view it.

I have been around a lot but still have not bumped into any "Japanese Only" sign. It is true the people who run those places are old people, Yakuza and in your in a sex district most likely... or your in a boonie area where they want no tourists.

I have never been given a bad look. You always smile if someone is staring at you. Never had anyone move over when I sat down on a train. I once even picked up a few flowers that fell from a sleeping man's bouqet. A Japanese woman saw me pick them up and put then in his bouqet. She knew very little english but turned to me and said I was a very nice and kind man.

Also if your in the boonies where no gaijin are..wow. Everyone looks at you (with puzzlement of what you are doing there and interest).

I walked in with my brother to a woman's house who taught caligraphy. One 5 year old kid couldn't stop gawking at me. Go Wakayama!
