Japan Population Shrinks By One Million Census Confirms. And the population is quickly aging- I think this is prevalent trend in other East Asian Countries like South Korea, Taiwan and even Singapore (which is technically Southeast Asian with strong East Asian cultural influence).

It'll level out. Less people means less pollution and other stressors on the environment, and a higher quality life. It already leveled out in Russia and is on the increase again without immigration, and Russia had among the lowest birthrates in the entire world

Not really - it means the working class are supporting the retired class and with less working class it means that QOL will go down not up; Also who is going to take care of all those old people - especially with Japan not allowing immigration.
Japanese people are forgoing marriage and putting off kids despite government incentives - that is going to be bad for everyone there.
The alternative is an ever increasing population because life spans will continue to increase. It seems to me that Japan is crowded enough as it is. As lifespans increase so does quality of life in the later years. Indexing retirement age to average lifespan is the best way to deal with this.

Old people don't live forever. They're going to die eventually. And I already pointed out that Russia faced the same exact crisis as Japan until recently, actually even worse because many of Russia's young men were DYING 30 years too early from alcohol abuse and suicide, and eventually government incentives, not immigration, increased the birth rate to a more sustainable level. Japan is already crowded enough as it is. Leave the Japanese alone

I think an old and feeble japanese population, completely addicted to a cushy life and having no desire or capability for war is always a good thing for everyone else in Asia and beyond.
