The birthrate in Japan has dropped for 28 consecutive years. Japan has the least number of children and the most elderly in the world. Eventually there will indeed be a lack of able-bodied people. Healthcare and blue collar manufacturing jobs already rely on foreign workers. Due to Japan's lack of desire or inability, whichever it may be, to have children, it must embrace immigration or just... die. There are constantly newspaper articles about this here.
