Animal cruelty is more or less the same thing. In the case of japan, if the demand is really low (as someone mentioned), then they ought to stop, since they are simply misusing resources and threatening ecosystems just 'because'.
I know it's hard for Japanese people to change their cultural behavior, however in this case they should at least breed their own whales, so it doesn't affect that much the ecosystems.

That is not the same. Killing people is not part of any countries' national cultural heritage (and by this, I mean arts and entertainment).
