Thanks for reading really appreciate it. Yes Google sends a notification via email via Google search console ( formerly known as Google Webmaster Tools) a lot of times when a site gets hacked. A lot of times they catch it long before the webmaster does most of the time it is a shared hosting with an absentee admin or webmaster. I know a lot of people in this crowd probably run across these situations all the time but a lot of people don't realize why exactly their sites got hacked and what the purpose is. Thank you so much again for reading and checking this out.

that's a bold statement. Google does notice that when they see some link network get too big. or maybe they have honey pots and they consider your server hacked if they see your pages linking to that honey pot. but thinking they know when a server if hacked is giving them too much credit. they may know when it's part of a widely know black link network. in fact, most search engines seems to know that. reason your links are for Japanese sites is because there everyone uses the cellphone operator default search, which is crappy, but still better than Google for native language. they may be slower to react or worse at detecting black link networks. disclaimer: i work for one of the biggest western search sites in Japan. but this is my opinion.

  Google analyzes pages for malware in some cases. https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/45449?hl=en https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/45449?hl=en They even warn you, I've seen an interstitial popup (from google) before for one of my sites that was compromised.

  ok yes I agree definitely too broad of a statement to say "google notifies when your site is hacked," but they definitely try. I'm assuming you read Japanese, anything else notable?
