Do the Japanese like the Chinese?
Hmmm, do the Japanese like anybody besides themselves?
They keep a pretty tight lid on demographic homogeneity.
They kowtow to the Americans but don’t mistake this for liking. Japan is essentially a vassal state of America. USA says jump and Japan asks how high.
China is easily Japan’s largest trading partner but the Japanese are very wary of the Chinese. There is a long history of enmity between their two nations.
The rape of Nanjing is still fresh in the Chinese psyche. But the Japanese won’t even acknowledge that it happened.
