Japanese people are very nice and hospitable, even they're shy... meh the level of creativity is unimagineable (most of it a surprises) 
So far i think they are very smart people who try very hard at what they do, respectful nice and kind i may only know two but the ones i do know seem to fit my description 
From my own experience Japanese people in the US and in Japan are very nice and considerate. Very hospitable and funny at times.
Based on my experience... Japanese people are nice and clever, and also hospitable.

Japanese people in general seem very polite, abiding by the rules and ready to help.
There's a huge difference with western people though : I feel that Japanese people try to not be noticed, be loud, or stick out in general, when westerners like to stand out and show off if they can.
I also feel like there's always a bit of xenophobia from Japan. It looks like a very welcoming country to visit, but I feel that you can't ever integrate the society because you are not born Japanese. It also explains why no Japanese players ever come to English speaking channels, waxman obviously being the exception :p
It's very different from the western culture. I hang out on English channels and communities and it's not even my first language, and I don't even share the same culture, yet I feel like I am a part of the community, and I definitely didn't feel like a stranger when I went to the US.
Although the language barrier is hard to overcome, I wish more Japanese people would talk with us in English channels.

Japanese people are polite people focused on quality rather than quantity when talking about producing merchandise. They make decent electronics, but when talking about cars, German cars are more durable. My mom when to Japan last fall, and because they are facing falling birthrate (少子化) so bad, that there's many Chinese people in filling empty spaces.
But the dark side of the moon is they are some weird people when talking about their wild imaginations, and they can be psychopathic at times. Recently Japan's prime minister named 安倍晋三 is trying to get militaristic and Japan its own army despite what happened after WWII.

e.g: requiring japanese ip to play japanese online games. requiring a cellphone number/ i-pin number to play korean games. the id for that chatting program that every chinese person uses that requires an SSN to register for. NO FOREIGNERS ALLOWED MAN

We had this IB World Cultures class. The last question on the final exam was about what culture do you find most engrossing. When the teacher was talking about the last question, he said that, "Many of you have chosen the Japanese culture, but you would get more points if you didn't just talk too much about animu."
SPOILER
I chose India because it is like a democratic alternative of China: It has an ancient culture, raised an economy from cheap labor, and are facing anachronistic questions, unfair wealth distribution, only that it has more freedom and is down a different path.
Besides there are actually some good sides of Indian culture: Gandhi, Tagore, curry...etc. No Hinduism thank you

I'll say it's a kind of stereotype when automobiles were first introduced in China, here's an example:Mr Color wrote:

German car (Probably the most popular German model in China back then, might be the most popular model overall as well)
Japanese car (made by Chinese manufacturer when it's sold in China, and it was quite popular)
That's basically where the stereotype comes from.
No. It was not a stereotype. Japan's cars majorly focuses on agility and speed, so it would be less durable when compared to other cars.B-52 wrote:

Well the difference of durability is not so huge now, thanks to the high-tech materials, so Japanese cars don't need to be built like a tank to get high durability, that's why I'm saying it's a kind of stereotype.Apex wrote:

Japanese people are awesome, with a very advanced technology. How many years they have in advantage, 10? But i saw in an article that they lost almost all interest by intercourse, if u know what i mean. Is that true?

What he's saying is that German cars are fast because of their 8+ cylinders, turbochargers, superchargers, etc., while Japanese cars are fast due more to their light body weight, so they can go super fast with only a turbocharged 4-cylinder engine (Mitsubishi Lancer Evo) or turbocharged 6-cylinder engine (Nissan GT-R).Tanzklaue wrote:

Btw I would personally prefer BMW :3
German luxury cars are simply sexy looking though when talking about looks, damn the nissan gtr sure is a piece of art. Dem looks dem speed <3. If I were rich enough I would buy both a gtr and an audi.
About the Japanese in general, I always picture obedient workaholics.

Japanese cars are overall way more durable than any other really (apart from Korean, based Kia). I have a Suzuki Wagon R+ from 2001 and it is still completely fine. My family bought an Opel (granted that's the worst brand from Germany you could have) Zafira in 2004, shit broke in 3 years.
While this is only my personal experience, studies prove this, and companies actually give their cars a 5-year warranty which is a thing european manufacturers don't do.

You Japanese guys need to talk in #english and learn from kanye-sensei. If in doubt, just ask P o M u T a, a proud graduate of kanye-sensei's school of engurishuuu. Kanye-sensei has taught him many useful phrases such as "blaze it faggots" and "my anus is bleeding!!"

British cars have about as much class as a rock.
I suppose we can't really participate down here considering how bad Australian cars are.

polite but they don't seem to like opening up to people.
From what little contact i had(a friend has japanese grandparents, he came to visit one time) they're quite shy, stay to themselves and all.
They seem to have an incredible ability of focusing on something, it's quite a sight.
A bit xenophobic, but here on brazil we are way too 'happy gogo'.
So maybe a bit of inter-communication with brazil woud be good, brazil could learn a thing or too(like when to shut up, or more seriously, that study is serious business, and not punishment from god).
Also,
THEY SHOULD GET LAID.

So I love you.
The question is pretty complicated because it relates to ideologies of Japan and what people are experiencing as they grow up. I feel kind of uncomfortable saying that I like or dislike people because of that. A somewhat extreme example: human rights in Nigeria are appalling, so people brought up there soak up those values; I wouldn't say that I dislike Nigerian people by default because of that. I suppose the issue I have with the question having the implication of tying culture and heritage directly to individuals.
That being said, I don't have any Japanese friends, I can't speak Japanese competently and I have never been to Japan, though I imagine this is true for most people in the thread. Anything I see from Japan is second hand, so largely entertainment media and news coverage, so not exactly extremely reliable. An issue I imagine a lot of Westerners would take with Japan is to do with how harsh the law is on recreational drug use, cannabis being the main offender. Imprisonment/deporture for that is obscene. Some quick research also found that the antidepressant I take (which has been extremely helpful and without the side-effects I got from fluoxetine) has only been approved for use in Japan since 2011 despite being approved since 2002 in the US, so I would be kind of worried about medicine in general in Japan.
I also love gaymers.

I do not know many hentai people but waxman and bluoxy. They are very nice and smart people but waxman wants to peropero everything.
My experience with Japanese people are kind of polarised and you may find it hard to believe. I'll say it anyway since imo one learns more from analysing negative comments rather than compliments.
A huge number of Japanese students I met in Australia dislikes social interactions with people of other Asian cultures; some are so extreme that they even refuse to talk to other Asians in the same class. I don't know if that can be called "conservative" anymore but it's not quite racist (except a few extreme examples).
Having said that, I know a small number of Japanese people who really enjoys mingling with everyone and they're great friends too. So it's like seeing two extremes with nothing in the middle...
EDIT: Forgot to add that through my observation, Japanese people are generally very polite towards white people (some to the extend of showing fear). So if you're of Caucasian appearance then chances are you'll never encounter any "rude" Japanese lol

it seems a lot of white men have been misbehaving in japan, thinking that it's okay as long as it isn't their own country or something like that. hence "whiteu piggu".
that's kind of sad, though.

I think of these Japanese people that they're polite, responsible, friendly, hospitable and creative even they can be easily embarrassed.
I also have a Japanese friend in real life and she is being always nice to me.
Therefore, I love their personality even being perverted at the dark side. XD

I understood that Japanese people is so awesome. Especially, waxman and Bluoxy. By the way, I'm afraid of what Japanese people can't write and pronounce exactly. As you can see, I suck at English. We have no communication to talk to foreigners. So I would like to ask you about Japanese English skill. No one talks about that （´･ω･`）. Perhaps, it is what I really want to hear foreigners discuss it.
