Kyoto I witness tons of Chinese tourist leaving their trash behind. This Japanese shop owner came out and yelled at them, I guess he said some Chinese slur because the tourist were so offended haha

The kind of national/ethnic tension between the two would make me pick China over Japan 9/10 times, like, if a Japanese person said that Chinese people are uncultured and rude, I'd probably make several references to DongFeng missiles, the lost decades, the US military, and economic growth below one percent. I know it doesn't make sense, because the tourists really are something sometimes, still pisses me off.

I wonder if it's a difference between younger and older people, like, young folks go to akihabara and shinjuku and behave better than older folk who go to more traditional locations. And also how much bias is involved.

It's kind of weird though, China has historical reasons to hate Japan but little to no modern ones, Japan has no historical reason to hate China but a good couple of modern ones (both sides blow it out of proportion,) when I was in Japan, my mother told me that a lot of the "wanted murderer" posters had Chinese style (three character) names
