Very few are left that do. Yes many WWII vets, particularly the ones that fought in the Pacific theater, had serious problem with the Japanese. The vast majority of those people are gone now.

Most Americans think of Japan as a place of technological industry and of strict(er) moral codes.

Also, the popularity of anime is rapidly growing in the U.S. and this gives the younger generations a link to Japanese culture. As of right now I'd say that the average U.S. citizen is neutral towards Japanese people but in the years to come look for people to be much more positive towards Japanese.

Aye, there are many allied veterans who served in WWII hate Japan for how they treated POWs. I know that once, when the Japanese Prime Minister paid a state visit, our old lads turned their backs to him as they believe Japan had never properly apologised for how they treated British and other allied POWs.

I'm British, and personally, I do hate how they treated our lads in WWII but that was like 70 years ago and the Japanese have changed quite a bit since then. So I don't hate today's Japanese people, quite the opposite in fact.

But not all Japanese were nasty to allied POWs, Captain Shunsaku Kudo saved 442 British and American soldiers after the catastrophic Battle of Java Sea in 1942, yet sadly the story of his humanitarian acts remains largely untold and unknown.

Why did the Japanese hate us to attack us?

The Japanese did not hate Americans or America. Many in their leadership did despise Americans, thinking them soft. They attacked Pearl Harbor as the opening of a necessary expansion to acquire direct control of natural resources in the Asia Pacific region, especially in the Philippines (which were a US colony at the time). Additionally, pressure from the US and elsewhere was limiting their commercial access and they were deeply involved in a war in China for which resources were needed.
