I would only advise you to consider that Japan is clearly the most ethnocentric country in the world (the data is clear -- don't need any hate mail) -- and also the second oldest (behind Italy) -- so there are "valid" medical reasons lol... As a spouse of a Japanese citizen -- and as someone that owns property in Japan -- and have for a decade -- it takes me months just to get a single use visa to visit my wife and family in Japan -- Japan is a complex society with many reasons for current policies which on the one hand I understand completely -- and on the other hand makes me crazy -- welcome to Japan of 2022 -- best way I can describe it is to imagine Trump boxing Hillary with Biden as the referee and Fox news as the broadcaster..
