That much is true. We don't really get our panties in a twist over being stereotyped, as in our culture we constantly make fun of everyone and everything, knowing full-well and expecting that doing so opens us up to being made fun of as well. Only faggot Chicano mutts get rectally devastated over Speedy Gonzalez and such.

There's this series (I still haven't watched it), Shin Chan and his family go several times to Spain, Doraemon visited Spain in the last New Year special, Louise Halevy from Gundam 00, and of course, co-created anime with Spain like Around the World with Willy Fog and Dogtanian.

Funnily enough, it all dates back to first wold war, not the second one. Japan had joined the winning side at the last moment and thus took on some German prisoners of war. These were basically their first actual hands-on contact with European culture in centuries, and they were fascinated with German culture (or what they assume to be German culture) ever since.
WW2 just added to that, really. The origin is WW1.

everything you just said bar them taking German POW's is wrong
Japanese fascination with Western culture began as soon as first contact. but really took of during the Meiji era with Western=modern=good. they had military advisors from the US, UK, Germany and France. copied German civil law by means of adopting the Swiss copy of it. they even started to brew their own whisky because it's a Western drink so it has to be better than sake and so we should make it. they started brewing German beer and Sapporo still dominates the Japan.
As for Japan in WWI, Japan joined the war in 1914 and took over most of Germanies pacific holdings and besieged Tsingtao (also the beer that dominates the chinese bier market) and accepted it's surrender hance taking German POW's. they stayed involved all the way up to the end of the war but most o their contribution was naval in nature and amongst other things they had destroyers in the Mediterranean heling with convoy duty and sub hunting
