If you are completely unaccustomed to crowds and find that being in one is a stressful or exhilarating event - that is one thing. But if you aren't particularly effected by the crowd, but rather by what type of people the crowd consists of... That is going to be entirely down to your own complexes.

I haven't the slightest idea what a person who thinks like that would behave like in a crowd situation... If they would do anything outwardly noticeable at all. But I am sure there are plenty of people out there for whom the key point would not be the fact that they are in a crowd of people, but rather that those people are Japanese. I am sure some people would be scared by this, some freaked out by it, some made uncomfortable, some weirdly happy about, some aroused by it, etc etc. My point is just that a Japanese crowd is no different than any other crowd unless you have some thing about Japanese people.
Oh Arigato^^ I understand now what you meant and completely agree with you of course.
