Is just that it happened a while ago and now the massive population is getting old and the bottom of the pyramid isn’t looking too good for them anymore.
I don’t know that that’s necessarily true, particularly as the older generations are on their way out. I’m not sure how many people Japan can/should support in a sustainable fashion (thinking here more in environmental terms and maybe a bit in economic terms, but not in terms of the safety nets that are getting really wrecked by what you mentioned).
I will 100% agree that the distribution is rather unsustainable on a number of levels. Not being able to get into free/subsidized childcare with growing shrinkflation and stagnant wages has certainly been an issue, and more people moving to the same places has definitely impacted that poorly.
No, they have colossal overpopulation.

Maybe the old should die.
