Regarding Japan, I would say it's a bit more complicated.
If you are a FOB English teacher with no language skills, low income and poor fashion sense by Japanese standards, of course you will struggle with any women over a 5.
But if you are equal to a Japanese guy in appearance, income, and can speak Japanese, you have the advantage over him.
Some girls won't go for you because you're foreign, but you will have both the small niche who are into foreigners and the larger niche who are curious to discreetly "try a foreigner".
In addition, you will get a pass on being a player in some respects because you are foreign. You already stand outside Japanese society, you don't feel the crushing social pressures that Japanese face.
In some ways being foreign in Japan is like having any point of difference in your home country - muscles, money, being a musician. It doesn't guarantee you pussy, but if you are smart you can use it as leverage.
This was my experience as well. The girls who wanted to "try a foreigner" usually didn't speak any English and had no interest in learning. Japanese was required the whole way.
