As a Japanese, I would like to apologize for the fact that some Japanese people descriminate or even hate "gaijin". They really do. I have to admit the fact.

But I would like you to know that as many as or more people try to understand, like to communicate with, or respect foreigners.
Many Japanese people will be glad when you tell them you like Japanese music, manga and so on.

I think that generally speaking, elder people tend to dislike gaijin more than younger people.
So I'm not sure but if you come to Japan as a worker, it is possible that you might face a kind of seperation.
On the other hand, I think that people who engage in somewhat international activities, they may be kind to foreigners.
But ironically, people who have experience in more intensive international activities, for example studied abroad or lived abroad when young, sometimes dislike foreigners(I don't know why but this is personal experience).

So whether you will face discrimination or not will depend on the environment, circumstances where you will be put. Unfortunately.

To sum up, what I tried to say was this.
It is true there are people who don't like gaijin, but there are people who do like foreigners, too.
