Yes, The Salvation Army has been in Japan for many years.

Christianity is a minority religion in Japan, with anywhere from 1% to 2% of the population claiming Christian belief or affiliation. Despite this, some Christian customs enjoy outsize popularity among the general population in Japan. Nearly all known traditional denominations of Christianity, including Roman Catholicism, Protestantism, and Orthodox Christianity are represented in Japan today, with no restrictions on evangelism.

The root of the Japanese word for Christianity (キリスト教, Kirisuto-kyō?) comes from the Japanese katakana transcription of the word Christ (キリスト, kirisuto?) and the Japanese word for doctrine (教, kyō?, a teaching or precept).
