Why are there green spas in Japan?

Question:


So I've been watching anime recently, and every time the is a bath scene, the water is usually green. Why is that?

Answer:


Bath salt is very popular, and commonly used in Japanese houses. One of the most popular color of bath salt is green, although there are many colors like green, pink, milky white, purple, blue,...

In anime, they don't depict clear water. Clear water is hard to depict, and it could be a problem to show naked body inside the tub. So it's common to add some color like green, or milky white.
