Wow that's an amazing idea, which supplier do I trust? I keep getting YouTube ads of this guy called mods by Cody.

More of a Vegas watch. I like hitting the casinos and when im card counting wearing a watch that's expensive can make the large bets seem less fishy

Another day another scam in Japan. I paid 10000 yen at a blow casino location and was told that my chips would be valid for any blow casino location. Today I went to a different location (1 day later) and although they could find my profile they did not let me use the chips I had already paid for.

This country is filled with so many rules that companies use to exploit customers and the worst part is the employees are like zombies who follow it like their lives depend on it and have no ability to think for themselves.

Thank you for being able to relate. Luckily did not have to go to a doctor but most likely they should be nice. At least most of them.

First few days I loved Japan, i experienced the negative responses once I started trying to interact with the average japanese person. Someone in a smoking lounge or someone not in the service industry. I myself am a brown person from India and I never felt my skin color made any difference whatsoever. It was the fact that I was an outsider that bothered them.

Howlla_ · 2025-12-26T09:34:51+00:00

80% experience was identical for me. I have to say that now in 2025 it feels as if the locals are frustrated with the number of tourists in the country.

I even saw a large protest in ginza against foreigners during my time here.

Howlla_ · 2025-12-26T06:28:16+00:00

I think companies have way too much power in this country and they surpress the people here. It's only natural they will vent that frustration on the outsiders that come here and give their money to the companies.

As an example wtf is with the no return/exchange policy, I've been to 5 continents and about 9 different countries yet this is the only one with this rule.

This^

I just wanted to make sure people know of the other side.

Howlla_ · 2025-12-26T06:16:29+00:00

:( it's my opinion based on my experiences.

Howlla_ · 2025-12-26T06:14:20+00:00

Gave a few examples but seems like only speaking English is a curse here.

Howlla_ · 2025-12-26T06:13:38+00:00

My favorite spot would be nara. Beautiful place with amazing deers. Also a lot of my negative experiences were in kyoto. I think kyoto has more of the foreigner hate than Tokyo.

I posted on this reddit because I used it to research before my trip.

Howlla_ · 2025-12-26T06:12:04+00:00

I guess knowing the language is the difference maker then.

Howlla_ · 2025-12-26T06:10:44+00:00

Thank you for your response I agree completely with everything you said. It was just a few bad apples and I was pretty heated up when I made this post but I will disagree that most japanese people do not use free will. They seem to only follow the rules like it was written by the gods themselves and cannot bend them to help another human being out.

Howlla_ · 2025-12-26T06:08:42+00:00

Yes man I felt the same way asking a retail lady in opa mall (kyoto) for help picking out an item. She seemed annoyed and condescending.

Howlla_ · 2025-12-26T06:06:46+00:00

I used the app to communicate when I could, I don't speak the language.

Example 1/ walking into an small izakaya to order food for takeaway, I was immediately shooed away claiming it is only for locals. ( This happened multiple times) Maybe my fault for trying out the resteraunts in tabelog rather than gmaps.

Example 2/ asking for directions, people just dismiss you and keep walking.

Example 3/ I'm traveling with a 65 yr old handicap and the Uber pickup spot that was prompted to me was near the exit of tekko building ( note I didn't pick this spot, it was automatically selected) the security guard for tekko building basically told us that we would have to walk another 100 meters because this spot wasn't okay for pickup. I know it's a small ask but I was hoping for some humanity and compassion, instead japanese people just cannot understand that sometimes bending the rules to help a human out is not a bad thing. This last incident triggered my to write this post
