For example digital services for essential government services were brought only recently (mynumber). Its decent but ways behind anything in europe. Digital services in general suck in japan, especially banking where the forms and backends cant handle foreign names, so you often have to send snail mail in the end. Faxes are still common place. Lots of stuff is still handled in paper even if they are submitted digitally so many things are painfully slow, especially anything visa/immogration related. With digital cash there are annoying walled garden economies and i could go on. General stores, restaurant, and public transport work really well however. I will not touch on societal issues or politics, as everyone has their own view on these matters.
