On inflation expectations:

• 85% of Japan households expect prices to rise a year from now, down
  from 85.7% in previous survey
• 76.7% of Japan
  households expect prices to rise 5 years from now, down from 78.3% in
  previous survey

Not really a lot of change. Bank of Japan Governor Kuroda has been telling us he expects Japanese inflation to begin falling from October 2023, or thereabouts.
