Thanks for the replies.
The iPod does support Japanese, and has for quite a long time. One we bought in the US long long ago (3rd of 4th gen) even handled it with no trouble.

However... Allow me to be completely honest and say that having owned several different players and several different iPods, the iPod surcharge has never seemed worth it. Maybe if you want to have video support, but video support on something with such a tiny tiny screen seems, well, pointless to me.

My husband currently uses a nice little player (I forget the model and he is off on a business trip so no quick checking possible) that cost 6980, holds 12GB, has a color screen, and has yet to fail from being accidentally dropped while riding a bicycle - something that managed to kill all the iPods on first or second drop. And even after a year of daily use it still only needs to be charged once every few days.

Not meaning to discourage an iPod purchase, but these days it is at least worth considering the other players out there.


If anyone is trying to find me… Tamyuun on Instagram is probably the easiest.
