I believe their resentment was justified for the Atomic Bombs and I have never heard of a country that is happy from having a US military base in their land. Those bases are a direct effect from us winning the War.
Since you have failed to read and this is going on a vicious circle I will answer you with
YOUR words...
See ^^ article your quoted but didn't read?
You really have failed to read. From the article.
After WWII, Japan as a defeated country was able to focus all its energy on developing its industrial sector, and subsequently achieved huge success as an industrial megapower, with the United States as the biggest market of its manufacturing industry. For this very reason, Japan enjoys a trade surplus of hundreds of billions of Japanese yen with America every year. Naturally anxious about Japan’s massive dollar reserve, the United States tries to control the exchange rate between the dollar and the yen in every way possible. What’s more, America demands that Japan use its foreign exchange reserve to purchase American national bonds. Naturally speaking, Japan should have the liberty to dispose of these bonds, as it purchased them with concrete money; however, Washington keeps a keen eye and exerts great pressure on the Japanese government whenever it spots the tendency of Japan to sell these bonds. The United States has made a considerable fortune by controlling the exchange rate between the dollar and the yen, and also controlling Japanese possession of American national bonds.
Reports showed that American soldiers had raped local schoolgirls in Japan, stirring up intense anger among Japanese people. However, according to the U.S.-Japan Security Treaty, Japanese ports do not have the right to reject American warships upon entry; American soldiers enjoy extraterritoriality rights in Japan, meaning that even if they commit a crime in Japan, the local police have no right to arrest, detain or convict them. Similar rape cases have happened numerous times, resulting in consistent protestations from the Japanese, especially the people of Okinawa.
The Japanese still have a lot more to be furious about; Washington asks that Japan promptly pay for all the expenses of American forces in Japan in order to “guarantee the forces’ ability to protect Japanese security;” these expenses include living expenses, salaries, water and electricity fees, troop transfer fees, facility fees, etc., totaling over 200 billion Japanese yen every year. The United States is also asking Japan for communications fees and infrastructure fees for a recent transfer of some troops to Guam. According to the Yomiuri Shimbun, the United States has recently made a “request” of Japan, “hoping” that Japan would cover the living and medical expenses of the 130,000 American soldiers in Afghanistan. That would scrap 2,000 billion yen from Japan. With America doing what it is doing now, Japanese fury will undoubtedly explode like lava from a volcano.
So no. it's not because we kicked their 🤬. It's still because of how we treated them.
You still haven't explain to me how I missed the important message from an US punk rock band from CA named NOFX with members Fat Mike, El Hefe, Eric Melvin, Erik Sandin have a song called Kill All the White Man is a proof of resentment from the Japanese?
