I'm skeptical. Most Japanese soup broths are made with bones or milk.
Soy and miso are other common soup broths in Japan.
Most, not all.
The most common broths, like Tonkotsu, aren't.
Miso is my go-to.
There's absolutely vegan dishes! I'm not vegan these days but still, a shop near me has this rich, flavorful, wonderful vegan ramen that's somehow not at all watery, and I'll get that instead of other kinds regularly.
Vegan options are relatively very recent, so I'm not too surprised that people aren't aware that some exist.
I'm only saying most broths aren't, not all.
But you were skeptical?
Most Japanese soups have neither of those things, but almost all of them do have dashi containing dried fish.
