yes, japanese cuisine can sometimes be extreme in this regard. it's also delicious, but only if you're being mindful of your eating. if you want to stuff your face, japanese is not necessarily going to give you good bang-for-buck. korean, chinese, thai, indian, etc. tend to be better at delivering flavor in bulk (also delicious, but differently so). i still fondly remember the home-cooked meals of my japanese friend's mom. simple yet exquisite.
