Yamato people is a Nip meme to hide the fact that they're mongrels, just like everyone else.
Xu Fu
>Those who support the theory that Xu Fu landed in Japan credit him with being the catalyst for the development of ancient Japanese society. The Jōmon culture which had existed in ancient Japan for over 6,000 years suddenly disappeared around 300 BC. The farming techniques and knowledge that Xu brought along are said to have improved the quality of life of the ancient Japanese people and he is said to have introduced many new plants and techniques to ancient Japan.

You tell the Japanese they're a bunch of racemixed Koreans, Austronesian, and Ainu, and they'll chimp out.
>muh Yamato people!
>muh racial purity!
Japanese are actually quite happy to stress their Austronesian and Jomon heritage. Just so to get away from the Korean Turanist.

True, they even try to point out resemblances between their national mythology and other Pacific mythologies (eg the ancestor Ninigi choosing Konohanasakuya-hime over Iwanaga-hime is a banana myth etc.) I think it actually started back during the colonial era when they were big on anthropology.

Most modern who give a fuck about their ancestry usually do so on the premise of some made up origins.
Once you're in the game of civilisation, you're in an endless circle of rape babbies, humiliation, failures, victors and what-not.
The only ones spared this fate are the people who never joined civilisation to begin with and those care more about their well-being and getting enough food to survive the day rather than making up fancy stories about someone who fucked their grand-...-grandmother spoke some language they don't even understand and was a part of a culture they know absolutely nothing about.
