It was shocking to see how much better of a society Japan was when I visited. Really the one thing they don’t do as well as us is create shareholder value. To which I say, who gives a fuck?
It’ really seems like a great place to live. They don’t seem on the verge of a civil war and aren’t evil to each other. Has more of a everyone get along feel to it and who cares what you’re into.
I hope you’re Japanese or can pass for it. As beautiful as the country is (I loved it there) they are highly xenophobic and racist. There are literally restaurants where foreigners aren’t allowed in (even if you’ve lived there decades), getting housing in most places requires you to be “sponsored” by someone with a very high upfront fee, etc.
Try like hell to move across the pond or Japan.

Every former expat I’ve asked says the same thing.
Japan is for Japanese people.
Doesn’t matter how long you live there or even if you were born there. If you don’t look Japanese you’re a foreigner.
Hugely sexist country though. Maybe it’s nice for men to move there.
Yeah 🤷🏻♂️ it was fantastic for me though and that’s all I can speak to
