It's not a Japanphobe or Britishphobe, there is a word for it but I can't think of it.

First of all, it wouldn't be anything-o-phobe, as a "phobe" is someone who DOESN'T like something.
The general term for a lover of everything British is Anglophile (though, strictly speaking, that means a lover of anything English).
A quick browse of the net shows that the word Nipponophile is popular for someone who likes all things Japanese, though I must confess I have no idea if it is a real word or not.

Anglophile, and Nipponophile. Anglo being the term for England, and Nippon is the Japanese word for Japan, although they use Nihon as well.

An X-phobe/-ophobe is someone who hates X, and an X-phile/-ophile is someone who likes very much X. Like xenophobe (hates foreigners) and xenophile (loves foreigners) or necrophobe (has horror of things associated with death) and necrophile (is fascinated, esp. erotically fascinated of death & dead bodies).
...So where were we, you'd have Japanophile, respectively Anglophile (these actually do exist in dictionaries).
...If you don't want to waste time with 2 words, say eg Japanglophile. Or Funnyassociantionophile.

A lover of all things British would most probably be called an Anglophile.
Not certain about the similar term for Japan...

It wouldn't end in "phobe" or "phobia." Phobias entail fear. What you're looking for is "phile" or "philia."
