My family and I (Japanese mom American dad, my brother and I are haafu) moved to the countryside in Tohoku of Japan in the summer of 2021, with my father coming later in September. During his time here since then, he hasn’t had a single experience of restaurants and businesses refusing him service or giving him two tiered pricing/english menu based off the fact hes a foreigner. He’s very visibly a foreigner too so its not a matter of thinking hes Japanese. In fact, people at restaurants he goes to are very nice and the people there sometimes try to speak to him in english. He goes to many places often. Same goes for me, but I have black hair and look just like my uncle who’s fully Japanese lol. The only anti gaijin experience I ever had was one upperclassman at my school who hated me since when I first got here I wasn’t good at keigo, but thats really stretching “anti gaijin”.
