The US will recognize the child as an American citizen. Japan may allow them to claim Japanese citizenship, but I don't believe they do.

Your child will be an American citizen automatically because American parents = American child. However, the Italian law is different than ours. You are not Italian just because you are born in Italy. if you are born in Italy to foreign parents, and you reside there until you are 18, then you can apply for citizenship. At that point, the child can be a duel citizen (the US now recognizes duel citizenship).

How do you get you citizenship?

through naturalization. More info: Anyone born in the US is a citizen by birth. Other than this a person can acquire or derive citizenship. A child born abroad to US citizen parent or parents is a citizen of the US as long as a few eligibility conditions are met by the parents. This birth can be recorded within 5 years at the Consulate abroad. The document issued at registration is proof of the child's citizenship. The child can also get a Certificate of Citizenship and a US passport as further proof. When the parents naturalize as US citizens, any child they have below the age of 18 and having a green card is automatically granted citizenship. This child will have to get a Certificate of Citizenship and a US passport as proof of US citizenship.
