I’ve been learning more about cultural attitudes in different countries, and I wanted to ask an honest question about racism in Japan.

In conversations I’ve had online with people from other Asian countries, some of them mentioned that foreigners, especially from certain regions, can sometimes be treated differently or feel unwelcome.

I’m curious to understand how people in Japan see this issue. Do you think discrimination against foreigners is a real problem, or is it misunderstood from the outside?

I’m asking out of genuine interest, not judgment, because I believe these kinds of discussions are important for mutual understanding.
