I think that's just your imagination. There has been no significant changes in English abilities in Japan between 2014 and 2023. It's just who you ended up around.

That's just your imagination. English isn't any more spoken in Japan now than it was 5 years ago. You were probably just used to it the second trip. The first trip is always going to be a shock.

That's the typical Japanese complaint, but I don't think it's valid. English and Japanese are totally different, and you can't expect to come out of a few classes during your public school days to make you anywhere near fluent in ANY language, let alone one that's completely different than your own. She should be more grateful that she got some of the basics at school.
