For me, the language thing, I think it has to go both ways, She speaks my language, I speak Japanese, to be that's only fair, but I know too tell well how learning a new language can be difficult. In my own case it's extra hard, cause I live in Belgium and here one half of the country speaks french, the other half speaks dutch and most people are expected to speak english, it gets even more complicated when you know that I'm Chilean and I speak in spanish with my own family (there's a ton of Spanish speakers in this region as well). Not sure how it would work, I think in my specific case, bare minimum would be english and french probably, my parents do speak french.
I don't think I could live in Japan frankly and I realise that moving here is doable, many people have done it, but it's not exactly easy.
I do think like it was said, there needs to be good communication.
Now, many of these points are not Japan specific, some are just female nature, like "she expects too much", that is just normal female behaviour.
I am not against a Japanese wife, but I think the chances of that being possible are extremely low, the culture difference might be too much to overcome, even though I'm very flexible and open and I know Japanese culture very well, I even speak some Japanese, but I just don't think it would be enough, unless she is also very open minded.
