Just an observation, there are still many JA's on, but 95% of them do not
have rock-crushing antennas or QTH's.  Even from VK, the Japanese
propagation is wobbly, and presently 40m is the easiest for me anyway.
Nowadays, there is a zillion VK's now on HF since January 1, but like JA's,
many do not have large (i.e. low angle) antennas.  The JA big guns are
always heard JA1YPA, JA3BAY, JA2BNN etc..
