How would Hawaii's Japanese American population be treated if japan conquered it ww2?

During WW2, almost 40% of Hawaii's population are of Japanese descent. If Japan manages to win Midway and pull off a successful invasion of the Hawaiian islands (probably borderline ASB), how would they treat people of their own kind?

VERY ASB. A naval victory at Midway is possible, though not the most likely outcome as the US had strategic surprise and a recon edge. A successful invasion of Midway given a naval victory is no better than 50/50 (Midway's defenses were good and well prepared, and the Japanese invasion force fairly weak). Then you get to the real problem: the IJN doesn't have the naval lift for the Hawaii op, and the IJA wouldn't want to give up the troops even if the lift became available.

Can we just handwave the ASB and talk about what would happen?

I for one suspect how Germans treated the volksdeutsche is a model
 
For the sake of the OP, I'll assume the Goddamned Bats allow the Japanese to take Hawaii:

Answer: look to their OTL conquests: Japanese-Americans will be treated well, if the younger generation misunderstood and obviously "polluted" culturally. All others are Gaijin dirt fit only for blacking your boots and bayonett practice. White Americans in particular will be treated with disdain owing to post-Imperial resentment. Expect prison camps and death marches for military, virtual serfdom and forced prostitution for civilians. Native Hawaiians that collaborate may get a secondary human status.
 
Handwaving that Japan would only win a naval victory at Midway even if everything went right for it and that invading Hawaii would require Susanoo to intervene in the flesh on the side of Japan for it to have a possibility the result would be as per their OTL conquests, but on US soil. What happens in the postwar scenario would be quite interesting.

Only if you move this to the ASB section of the fora. Seriously, we have a section for this stuff.
 
Yes, you can have a serious discussion about a post-ASB intervention scenario. We have a place for that on these boards. That place is not here.

ASB, USB, MSNBC, who cares about a bunch of acronyms. The poster is clearly asking a question about how Japan would treat a large concentration of its fellows in a foreign land. How that came to be is just a detail.
