Oh Goddess, i can imagine all the creative manga those Japs have made on Asaris in our honor (called hentai)
For some reason the Japs are very fond of my scalp

Well I never thought I'd see a super deformed Tali in a sailor suit!

But I don't think ME was ever very popular in Japan, as the little manga above implies the Normandy is having to drop leaflets in Japan to get people to pay attention. Then MiniTali and MiniLiara decide they have no idea what ME is and toss the leaflets away at the end. Also Liara calls Tali a "mecha otaku."
Bonus points to anyone who spotted the Krogan.
Full disclosure: I'm a 'Murican living in Japan, so my Japanese isn't fantastic, but I was able to pick up a few things from the manga. Thanks for sharing!
Also,

I believe the notification underneath the galactic readiness display says: "Disconnected from EA Servers."
