I realize I'm phrasing this question oddly.
Pretty much how would life be for someone visiting or living in Japan that has Asperger's?

I think it would depend entirely on how severe the person's Aspergers is, what support system they have in place, and what their circumstances will be once they arrive in Japan. In a sense life would be the same for an Aspergers person as for any other individual, but what they would find challenging or awkward would be very much different to someone without the disorder.
It's hard to say really, because Aspergers can be a bit of a label and everyone who has it has different areas they struggle with more than others, no two people with the disorder are the same. It might be easier if you listed certain traits and said 'how would a person with these traits be like in Japan?' because the question seems a bit vague to me, like a generalisation, you know? :/ Sorry, I'm probably not expressing myself right.
You mentioned hikikomori in your subject title too. Is there a link between that and your question in your main post?
