Just as you would never put butter or brown sugar on rice in Japan, pouring soy sauce on top is a no-no. Acceptable things are furikake, egg, green tea, seaweed bits...and yes there are pour people in Japan. You will find the culturally traditional rice toppings (though surely 95% of people eat it just plain most of time) are far from expensive.
