Something like:

 http://www.sixxs.net/faq/connectivity/?faq=native

Which lists quite a number of them already, there is also a link to the
Japanese service providers of which there are quite a few more.

6to4/Teredo etc make connectivity possible semi-automatically in a lot
of places, thus without seeing source addresses and a traceroute it
doesn't say that you are native at all; and when it is not native, then
most very likely your local ISP doesn't have much to do with it.

of places, thus without seeing source addresses and a traceroute it
doesn't say that you are native at all; and when it is not native, then
most very likely your local ISP doesn't have much to do with as can be seen in the above URL, there are ISPs which are already awake.
