One name to rule them all: Forget the foreign invasion myths: The real threat to Japanese identity is a 130-year-old clerical error mathematically deleting every other surname in the country.
You can see the commonality of regional surnames in local graveyards. One Obon my wife and I were looking for an old Uncle's grave. Look for Sano, I was told. They were practically all Sano!
The pain is real! I have a friend from here in Yamagata with a very common last name here that isn't common in Tokyo where they live. They always get second-guessed!

Am highly familiar with this one too
Nah太郎 will stop this from happening
We can only hope so!
But will they beat the Takahashis and Suzukis?
At least Satos agree on how to write their name - unlike Saitos
Saito was a part of my draft!!
