And the Japanese reaction? „That’s just bad foreigners bashing our ancient culture, the Yakuza is actually helping our society, and anyway this guy is actually Chinese. If you disagree go back to your own country!!“
Not that guy. I looked out of curiosity. It’s being reported on several news channels. Asahi is one. Yahoo had an article and said japanese authorities found no connection with domestic Yakuza (many are registered, believe it or not).

Do you have a source?
I’m guessing their “source” is a long-winded way of saying “I don’t like the Japanese people.”
It’s a joke based on typical reactions from Japan.
Hmm, could you say it’s a stereotype based on nationality or race?
Race, most often. There are quite a few Japan-born Chinese who go through a lot of discrimination, let alone those who are mixed.
Can you show us those ‘typical reactions’ and show that they are typical?
Definitely what I assumed, but wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Actually I don’t see any reaction. Two major newspapers don’t mention the story at all, at least not yet. We shall see.
Didn’t check others, got bored.
