About Reality of Japan
Bridging the gap between the “Tourist Japan” and the “Real Japan.”
Our Mission
Japan is often portrayed through the lens of anime, cherry blossoms, and delicious food. While these are wonderful, the reality of living and working here involves complex taxes, unique housing markets, and cultural nuances that can be overwhelming for newcomers.
Reality of Japan (RoJ) was founded to decode these complexities. Our mission is to provide accurate, data-driven, and actionable information for international residents, investors, and digital nomads planning to build a life in Japan.
What We Provide
Unlike general travel blogs, we focus on high-intent practicalities:
- Financial Clarity: Custom tools like our Japan Salary Calculator to visualize real take-home pay.
- Housing Curation: Hand-picked listings of Share Houses, “Akiya” (vacant houses), and renovation properties suitable for foreigners.
- Living Guides: Honest advice on visas, banking, and navigating Japanese bureaucracy.
Who We Are
We are a team of entrepreneurs, tech developers, and Japan-enthusiasts based in Tokyo.
Having navigated the Japanese system ourselves, we understand the frustration of finding reliable information in English and Spanish. We combine local “boots-on-the-ground” insights with technology to simplify your transition to Japan.
Our Philosophy
- Transparency: We label our affiliate partnerships clearly. We only recommend services we trust.
- Data-Driven: We prioritize numbers and facts over vague impressions.
- Community First: We are building a platform not just to inform, but to connect global talent with Japanese opportunities.
