Yes and no. It really depends, you know like most countries, you have loud poopheads and you have poopheads who keep their prejudices to themselves and then you have nice people or people who dont care youre there, just dont get in there way on the way to work.

But yes, Ive been told to go back to america twice, once in tokyo and once in osaka. There are groups who drive around in black vans spouting hate against korean, US, china.

There is subtle racism and overt racism, some people have worn big plastic noses to represent whites, and black face. It happens.

Yeah, of course. You get some kids who are all about ENglish, they love all things English, they talk to you in the halls as much as possible, but thats maybe, thats rare. Most kids, like kids in the US who have to study spanish, they see no point in it. Plus here in Japan, the kids are forced to study grammar and so on, its not an elective like the US.

And Ive been hired to work a large company to be their private teacher and 95% of the students, engineers, etc, said they never travel abroad or use English at the company. I asked them, why study English? They said I don't know, each employee was forced to study even though they worked like 12 hrs in a factory that day. its rough.

Teaching wise, a boy in one of the Junior Highs I worked at (most teachers have to work at a few schools during the year) threw the school's pet rabbit out the window! I was.. shocked.

Thats the issue to me, Japanese people are used to it and dont care. these black vans have free reign.

kudos to your friend!
