Yes, there were Americans who were interned in Japan at the start of the war. They included some business people, tourists, students, religious workers, and Japanese-Americans visiting relatives. A few had been moved to the 'safe' cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, where there was little bombing. There were also a large number of American POWs in Japan, primarily doing forced labor in factories.
