The OP is making stereotypes, and they aren’t universally true (as is usually true for stereotypes).

Japan is a big place. There are all kinds of people, and plenty of innovative organizations. It’s frankly embarrassing, the amount of nonsense that people are spouting in this thread.

Indeed, there is a lot of innovation happening in Japan. Most of it isn't software or sexy industries that get all the news in American press, though.

Could you give some examples? Not challenging you, just curious.
