Japanese people don't have friends or social lives. Their concepts of these things come from Western media, which they incorporate into their own because anime from the beginning was their attempt to copy Disney.

Since he specified with friends or a qt I'm assuming both or maybe just shut-in.
I'm a nervous wreck with people and I've still had hot pot and korean bbq with friends since they both were cheaper than going to the burger joint or sandwich shop near them. They weren't even "all you can eat" places. The lunch special was $15 and $10 respectively and you walked out full and still had leftovers.
I yelled at this one dipshit who tried to use wooden chopsticks on raw meat to put over the fire when he had been given metal tongs but that was an outlier event.

My only problem with hot pot is that you have to wear clothes you don't mind smelling like the spices until you can wash them. Ventilation at that shop is not the best.

I appreciate simpler flavors and small amounts of food. I've lost 25% of my body weight by imitating Japanese diet and continue to lose it.

Worst part about Japan (aside from the work culture) is if you're a foreigner you're not allowed in many places. Japs will be casually or even extremely racist to non-Japs. So if you're a tourist, you have to stay in tourist areas and be surrounded by the people you were trying to escape from (Logan Paul). Even mixed blood Japs are ostracized.
The population in cities is also probably terrible.

Idk, my korean waifu lived in smaller cities in japan for a number of years and told me it was quite common for a woman to forget her handbag in a park or other public place, come back hours later and it would still be there untouched. She said a woman could walk alone any time day or night w/o fear. When she first came to the US she worked retail and was shocked about the widespread shoplifting, said it was virtually unknown in japan. Given the antagonism koreans have for japan, it would be surprising if she wasn't telling the truth.

They absolutely are not, you are thinking of the rural south, which absolutely has some of that. But if you go to some middle or upper class suburb in the northeast or midwest or west coast crime is absurdly uncommon
The midwest especially has done a very good job of sequestering crime to inner cities where the rest of the people never go

I grew up in one of these areas and have quite a bit of first hand experience in it, you can literally leave your doors unlocked and garage door open if you want, the worst you have to think of is teenagers stealing beer

If you were born in Japan, but had the same personality as you have now, you would likely be a hikki. They are more common in Japan than the US, I think.

By the way, nothing is stopping you from making a hot pot in the US. Any dish you want to try from another country... you can make that. You can also substitute out or add ingredients to taste if you want to innovate. The idea that only certain people can eat or make certain food is ridiculous. The world is your oyster, so go ahead and try something new.
