Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Before the bubble burst on the Japanese economy, waves and waves of tourists were coming overseas. In any Chase Scene or crowd scene, expect there to be such a group of tourists, who just ooh and ahh at the main action and take pictures while flashing the V-Sign at one another. This has not quite passed into Dead Horse Trope territory, as plenty of Japanese still do travel overseas in Real Life, and tend to do so in large tour groups due to low levels of foreign-language proficiency and a lack of Japanese speakers and signage in other countries. Such groups are very likely to contain keen and very well-equipped photographers. However, it shows up quite a bit less now than The '80s and The '90s. The trope usually pokes fun at their tendency to snap photos, travel in huge groups, and always behave like they're visiting a zoo. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Since the turn of the 21st century, the stereotypical Asian tourist is increasingly likely to be Chinese and Korean rather than Japanese. A subtrope of Funny Foreigner. If they get a chance to talk, may often use Asian Speekee Engrish. Compare with Hawaiian-Shirted Tourist and "Ugly American" Stereotype, this trope's two Eagleland equivalents. Examples: |

In the Thursday Next books, Thursday meets two at Thornfield Hall, where they can tour the estate and even meet Mr Rochester and the other characters. (Mrs. Nakajima, the leader, apparently makes a living off it.) They make a point of staying out of Jane's way so that they don't disturb the narrative. | |

Invoked in Midori Days when the cast meet Daniel (who is himself Eagleland personified). He complains that Seiji – a delinquent with bleached hair – looks nothing like how he expected Japanese to look. So he gives Seiji an impromptu makeover to fit his preconceived stereotype... including a salaryman haircut, glasses, large front teeth, and yes a camera around his neck. | |

The Simpsons: In the episode "In Marge We Trust," Japanese tourists recognize Homer as the uncannily similar detergent mascot Mr. Sparkle and excitedly take pictures. A Japanese tourist family are getting their pictures taken in front of the Simpsons house when their foundation is sinking in "Marge Gets A Job". In "A Star is Burns", Bart has an Imagine Spot of him selling fake maps to celebrities' homes to a family of Japanese tourists. Cue said tourists going up to Moe's front door and mistaking him for Drew Barrymore. |

In an episode of Are You Being Served?, a Japanese Tourist comes into the store with his "Cledit Caa" (Sooooooo!). Captain Peacock's attempts to communicate with him are at least as hilarious as the tourist himself ("You wanty buy?" "Whaty-wanty?"). He ends up falling down the stairs and having his head stuck in one of Mr Mash's buckets. Also: |

Discworld: Twoflower is essentially the Fantasy Counterpart Culture of this, though with clothes befitting a Hawaiian-Shirted Tourist. The movie version gets a Caucasian Race Lift and is wholly the latter type. In Jingo, an Agatean tourist is in the crowd at the procession, taking lots of pictures that Carrot later uses as evidence in investigating the failed assassination of Prince Khufurah. |

One Black Lagoon episode, a Japanese salaryman traveling with his son meets up with and has friendly conversation with the character Masahiro Takenaka, who he thinks looks familiar (Takenaka is a terrorist and fugitive- he actually looks familiar because his face is on wanted posters). Takenaka is based upon Kozo Okamoto, and the implication seems to be that the last time he was at an airport, he was blowing it up. | |

A few anecdotes from The Ricky Gervais Show involve them. Ricky Gervais was stopped by some Japanese tourists so he could take their picture. He theorizes that either they didn't realize he was famous, or they completely misunderstood that the point is to get your picture taken with the famous person and not by them. Stephen Merchant was out with his friends one day, and some Japanese tourists stopped them and asked if they were N Sync, to which they answered "Yes we are." Stephen, being 6'7", questions how they could have made that mistake since no member of N Sync is that much taller than the others. Karl Pilkington insists that they take pictures of people with ginger hair since they don't get them over there. |

Pokémon: Pokémon X and Y, which are set in a Fantasy Counterpart Culture version of France, features a new trainer class called Tourist. All of them look distinctly Asian, have Japanese names outside of the Battle Maison, and only use Pokémon from the first four generations (which took place in Fantasy Counterpart Culture Japan). Pokémon Sun and Moon introduces the "Sightseer" class. It is based on American tourist stereotypes but many Sightseers are from Japanese-based regions. The game is set in Alola, a Fantasy Counterpart Culture to Hawaii. Almost all of them exclusively use the regular variants of Pokémon that were given Alolan forms in Sun and Moon. |

Two survivors in Dead Rising turn out to be this. They run away from you, assuming you're a zombie; you have to pick up an English-to-Japanese dictionary to talk to them and convince them to come with you to the safe security room. | |

Pokémon X and Y, which are set in a Fantasy Counterpart Culture version of France, features a new trainer class called Tourist. All of them look distinctly Asian, have Japanese names outside of the Battle Maison, and only use Pokémon from the first four generations (which took place in Fantasy Counterpart Culture Japan). | |

In Hellsing, Seras uses a group of elderly Japanese tourists to break up a fight between Alucard and Alexander Anderson in a museum, requiring the two combatants to freeze in place and be treated like statues. It's just as funny as it sounds. Made doubly hilarious by one of the gramps complaining to his friend, while pointing at the Alucard's enormous guns, that "they didn't have that in Manchuria". | |

A pair of Japanese tourists show up in time for a fight between Captain America and the Incredible Hulk. Amusing in that the speech bubbles contain kanji, and in the caption box, where one would expect a translation into English, is only a transliteration into the romanized spelling of those words. | |
