Judaism in Japan is not endemic to Japan, that is to say that there have never been communities of Japanese people (ethnically East Asian) who have been Jews or practiced Judaism in a profoundly Japanese way. As a result, most Jews who are in Japan (in the cities of Tokyo and Kobe) are European Ashkenazi Jews who moved to Japan in the last 150 years after Japan was opened to the West. The beliefs of those Jews did not change when they moved to their new home. See the related question below for a discussion about Jewish beliefs.

This is not to say that endemic Oriental Judaism (that is the proper term for it) does not have its own flavors. The Jews of Kaifeng (Chinese Jews), the Jews of Puna and Goa (Indian Jews), and the Jews of the Steppes (Central Asian Jews) all have unique cultural aspects. However, the core beliefs even of these endemic communities were and continue to be the same as those in the more established Occidental Jewish communities.
