There is little doubt, I think, that Japan is still very isolationist in nature and that they are, generally speaking, a bit condescending toward other cultures. A lot of the manga I read, even serious, well-written works, will have very cliche and stereotypical foreigners in them. It's kind of jarring at times.

and US media doesn't?  Pretty much every asian are stereotypical asian characters. 

Ofcourse Japan's foreigners are stereotypical in their media too.

Having lived both U.S. and Japan, and being half Japanese.
Both places are pretty terrible at this. Japan is probably worse imo.
