Basically no lockdown other than shutting down bars at 8 PM, plenty of exposure between proximity to China and super-crowded trains

The difference between Japan and the USA is their ubiquitous mask use

We went on a 20 year jihad over a single 9/11's worth of preventable deaths in the USA, and yet we can't be bothered to take any action when we're racking up a 9/11 every couple of days?

Are you serious? Japan has THE HIGHEST life expectancy in the world! And America is ranked 34. Maybe your source isn't very honest, if they failed to point this out?

Higher elderly population means people tend to die due to covid.

Compare obesity between the two nations and I think you'll find the culprit.
