Sounds like you had a pretty bad experience...
Last time I took a night bus (Nagoya to Tokyo), there were only about five people on the bus. I had my row entirely to myself. I can't comment on sleeping as I cannot sleep in a moving vehicle, but it was quite spacious. Then again, I am only 159cm.
There are different types of buses with different seat layouts and amounts of room, so you may have gotten a really bad one. More crowded times of the year - holidays, etc - they bring out the older buses and buses that are more for day use which can hold more passengers.
The bus I was on was a lot more spacious than any plane I have had the "pleasure" of taking, and was more comfortable than the Shinkansen by far.
