Not so much that it isn't allowed, but either the subject or artist has to be of 'far eastern' flavor to be relevant for this place.
Japanese(y) Subject: Because it may not be known well here. Japanese(y) Artist: Because it may not be easy to keep up with or even find them due to language barriers (though some artists also post at deviantART).
