Japan simply is xenophobic. I lived there for 2 years. That's just a fact.
I lived there for four years. Nice and friendly people. Never felt unsafe.
I shared that experience. I also was actively excluded from all sorts of things (including essential services) because I was a foreigner. Whenever a group of expats got together, at some point in the night, the conversation would be about how everyone got discriminated against recently.
Did you put effort into learning Japanese? I didn't experience any exclusion.
