There are certainly patriotic people (and nationalistic) people in both countries. I think in general Japanese people are more subtle with their patriotism, until it is Japan vs. China in the World Cup.

I get your point though.. American nationalism and Japanese nationalism are expressed differently so difficult to measure.
Fair enough.
