Hello! There's a question that has been plaguing my mind and I wonder if any of you might be able to give me an answer.
It's quite a common knowledge that sometimes a law school has set a country/region quota so that the incoming class would be as diverse as possible.
I'm from SE Asia and currently pursing my first undergraduate degree in Law (LL.B.) in Japan. I am doing this degree wholly in Japanese, which is my 2nd foreign language (Eng is the first one but as some of you might know already, we rarely use Eng here).
I'm not a Japanese citizen.
Supposed that I apply for a law school (LL.M.) during my 4th year, I wonder if a law school would consider me as "from Japan" or "from my country, based on my nationality"?
Country/region quota in a law school?

You will be considered as a Japanese Lawyer, unless you have other qualifications from your nationality. None the less you will be an attractive candidate for any law school.
