Have you researched racism and xenophobia in Japan? You might want to know about those things if you are considering getting a degree just so you can move there.
There is racism and xenophobia every. I am not saying that Japan doesn't have discrimination, but all too often people unfairly label Japan as racist. Foreigners often misinterpret certain things as racist. What you need to realise is that Japan wants to preserve its cultural identity. It is not a country like Australia or the United States that was built on foreign immigration.
