Lack of land.
Japan is actually a rather small nation consisting of a group of small islands. They don't have a lot of land to bury people. They don't even have enough land to build houses, which is why every Japanese city is crammed with high-rise apartments.
Cremation is popular purely because there is no space to bury the dead.
