Ah, it's one of those "Japanese Only" signs. If you're white, don't even try to get in because they won't let you.

This one is from last month, pics were taken on April 20th:

There's a lot of these signs in Tokyo and all around Japan. Restaurants, barbershops, bars, nightclubs, saunas, etc. So many places that don't want you as a customer if you're not Japanese.

Here's a nice little gallery with many more examples:

I mean reading that link just makes it sound like they don't want to have to deal with the language barrier. There's some signs that say you're still allowed to enter if you're accompanied by a Japanese speaking person or if you're not Japanese but just speak Japanese.

This is a side effect of having an official language.
