Japan does not have presidents. Japan is a constitutional monarchy. They have an emperor, who is the head of state, and a prime minister, who is the elected chief executive of the country.
The current Prime Minister is Shinzo Abe, whose term started on the 26th of December, 2012.
Akihito is the current emperor which is more like a president
-There is no President in Japan. There is an Emperor, who used to be treated as part God until WWII, and now after the war, the Emperor lost most of his power and is now just a figurehead.
Prime Minister is the closest to "president". As of now (Nov 2012), it is Yoshihiko Noda.
The Emperor is currently Emp. Akihito, and as of 2012, he is in his 24th year of reign.

Who is the president and vice president of Asia?
Japan does not have a President or a Vice President. It does have an Emperor and a Prime Minister. However, the Emperor does not have any power at all. While in England, for example, the Parliament has almost all the power, the Queen does have some decision-making power. In Japan, Emperor Akihito does nothing but sit on the "Chrysanthemum Throne" and greet foreign dignitaries. Naoto Kan is the current prime minister of Japan. It is he who has all the executive power, like the United States President.
