Isn't it weird then that there are so many stories of massively overworked workers in Japan? I wonder if those statistics are wrong, or perhaps misleading.

Using that same example, you could consider American statistics misleading. US studies show that wage theft by corporations is a multi billion dollar a year industry. Things like that lead to underreporting of actual hours worked, hence, skewing statistics.

There are a large number of workers in Japan. Even a mid-range percentage of a large number could be "so many". By all means, the statistics could very well be wrong or misleading, but the number of stories you've heard isn't really evidence.

There were (or are) many workers work overtime without salary paid, they would be won't displayed in statistics.

You cannot find any useful information about Japan in English. For some reason orientalism makes people abandon all common sense.

  "You cannot find any useful information about Japan in English." Yeah Japanese history taught by Japanese people in Japanese language, in the land of Japan, that's how it works, I don't understand why you think everything should be written in English. Or should I say your ignorant statement invokes that angry response from me. "For some reason orientalism makes people abandon all common sense." Seriously??????? Orientalism??? Who the fuck r u? Seems like your white privilege is showing your racist side.... My kids are part Asian, I would break all the teeth in your mouth if I heard you say that statement in front of my children. Keyboard warrior I bet your are... fucking prick!

Bunch of keyboard warriors standing up for human rights once again stand silent while another "tech bro" spews toxic ideology.

Fuck is wrong with you all, if you see a fire do you stand back and watch it burn everything you love to the ground?
