It depends where you are, who you interact with, and how you act. I've lived in Japan for 1.5 years and I've almost never encountered any kind of racism or disdain. The biggest thing is that a lot of Japanese are just reluctant to interact with a foreigner, often because they seem to feel that their English isn't very good and want to 'save face', as it were.
