The about page at https://alllooksame.com/about/ seems to indicate that the author who is of Japanese descent is not able to differentiate between them himself and made this website to test the assumption

In any case, I thought the "you all look the same" racist trope is that east asian people look similar to one another individually? is there an actual expectation of being able to tell the actual ethnicity/countries apart?

Facial structure, there are some obvious ones in ALS. But generally speaking, it's fashion that gives it away. I can spot a (relatively recent) Japanese immigrant from a hundred feet away by her clothes. It's a bit like if you see someone in Europe with a baseball cap, you can be almost certain they're American. Sandals with socks? German. Etc.
