This was in the middle of the day, in a mall, while husbands are at work...
It's not something I saw everyday, but wasn't all that shocking. (though I would fall asleep by lunch if I had a beer at 10am)
But still, probably not as bad a China. The hangups about smoking still exist, but lots of women I knew smoked publicly. I knew a couple that hid it from their husbands...though "hiding" in Japan means "don't do in front of".
