Listen, if it had been in the US, I would have been insulted. But in Japan, I recognize that gaijin aversion is a part of their culture.

It wasn't the size of the bar. It wasn't all the other 'reasons' people are coming up with.

It is an aversion to foreigners. I get it.

I just recognize it for what it was and moved on.

I wouldn't hesitate to visit Japan again. I absolutely loved my visit. But it is what it is. And you just spend your money where people welcome you, and not where they don't want you.
