What's some amazing technology they have in Japan that's very normal to them but would blow our minds here in the US and western world?

Not overly high tech but such a good fit for the culture and extremely convenient:

Self-filling, self-warming baths

Put the plug in during the day, press the button to fill the bath at the remote keypad in the kitchen. Baths fills and a little jingle announces that the bath is ready at the perfect temperature.

I'm so jealous of those deep soaking tubs they have too. SO jealous

Yeah, I've got a self filling one. Nice to run a bath without even getting out of bed. Although if you forget to put the plug in first, you'll arrive to an empty bath.

haha why would they make the solenoid for the water running but not for the drain? that's weak
